General
When can I start driver education?
Before attending the first class, you must be 15 years old and obtain a Learner Permit from the Driver License Division by taking and passing the State Written Test. Logan, UT DLD
You are required by law to have your permit at least six months prior to obtaining a license (even if you are already 16). It would be best to take a class approximately six months prior to reaching age sixteen, but the law allows you to start the class as early as age 15.
Why should I take driver education so soon?
- To have the knowledge to practice effectively with your parents (i.e., right of way laws, maneuvers, proper driving techniques).
- To develop good habits rather than unsafe practices that may have to be corrected in order to pass the Driving Test.
- Taking the evening/summer course will save an elective choice in your high school schedule. We have many guest speakers present that add to the instruction. Also, the course only runs 9 days.
