Do you have to wait for 6 months with permit even after 18?
Find answers to your legal question.





Do you have to wait for 6 months with permit even after 18?

I don't have either a permit or a license yet even though I'm 18 years old.

Do I still have to have 6 months with a permit to get a driving license?
or can I just skip that 6 months term because
I'm 18?

In Kansas and Texas there is no waiting period. You need to be over 18 yrs of age, have proof of identity, not have been canceled, suspended, or revoked in any other state, pass a written, vision and driving exam, complete all required forms, and pay all fees.

It depends on what state you live in. Some states at 18 you just need to pass a driving test, while in other states you still need to drive with a permit for a certain amount of time. Check with your state and see what it requires.

It varies by state. Im in Ohio and here - NO YOU DONT.
My niece is 18, just got her temps. Im helping teach her to drive. She doesnt have to wait the 6 months, but if she were 16 for instance she would.
She could go in tomorrow if she was ready and take the test - but shes not ready yet!
Call your local license place in the morning. They can tell you.

In *most* states, any and all restrictions go away at age 18. So probably no, but you didn't say where you are.

Depends on your state laws. Here in Michigan you only wait 30 days between your permit and the road test, at 18.
I would go to the secretary of state office and ask.

In California, if you are 18, you have to have 6 months of practice while you have a permit before you can get your driver's license.
