    • In California, DMV always issues a permit when you have passed the written knowledge test. Regardless of age.

       

      To get a full and unrestricted California Driver License you must also pass the behind-the-wheel test (the practical driving test). Assuming you are 18 years or older, you don’t need a driver education course and there is no mandatory driving practice while holding the permit. As soon as you have passed the written test, you can schedule your driving test.

       

      After passing both you will earn your full and unrestricted California driver license.
