Im turning sixteen in a week, and am going to be getting my permit. i read the drivers manual book thing and its pretty simple. But i was just wondering if theres any tips, or maybe some answers anyone remembers from the test.

+k for help
i dont give minus k

oh and the last thread i made didnt even let me look at it or even post in it so, so if i dont give plus k its because my NS is broken

Neither permit or license are hard. Its all about being calm cool and collected. And if u get a pain in the ass testing person they may be a dick so u just try again. No Big deal.

yeah i believe 25 or older with a current operating license

at 16 you can test for your "youth operating license" and you have that until you turn 21 (i believe). the written exam is 40 questions, but you only need 32 correct answers. once you get 32 correct you stop. the driving test was a 10 to 15 minute drive and i only had to parellel park which is so easy.

the only advice you need is that if you can drive, then you'll get your license. if you can't/shouldnt be driving, then you wont get it. i hated when kids in my HS used to blame the testers for failing them, yet they clearly cant drive. just relax, its a 10 minute drive that will be over before you know it. you'll be fine.


as far as permit, just take the practice tests. in NY I think I had 1 question on the permit test that wasn't on the practice one online. I just took them a bunch and eventually itd give you the same questions over n over.

I failed the permit twice I think haha, but passed the license first try. If you read the book and highlight the important stuff and then look again you should be fine, good luck

Close enough. I didn't even have to parallel park for mine. Literally the easiest thing ever.

for the actual license, drive slow, stop for a long time, achieve victory
