      TL;DR If you're a minor you must take driver's ED.
      If you're an adult you don't need to do so, but taking driver's ED as an adult isn't a bad idea.
      Then you just need the stuff listed at 2:08 when you take the test.

      Adults are similar but no need for 6 month permit, as well as drivers ed and driver training. You will need to pass a written test for the permit and take a drive test but you should practice. Do not be that one person where their first driving experience is the road test.

      If you are 18 then you can simply apply online, bring in the proper documentation (Birth certificate, Passport, 2 proofs of residency, as well as SSN card or W-2). Then you can take the test alongside the eye exam, photos, and what not. Once you pass the written test you get a paper permit and then you can take the road test. Once you pass the driving exam you get a license.

      @@nosun2419 You can apply at the DMV for a license. It is just that if you apply online and you don't have one of those ID cards with the bear on it, you could apply for a license with the bear called REAL ID and then you can upload your documents online or you can bring them into the DMV.
      You cannot take both tests at the same time as you will need to come back for another appointment to take the drive test. Use that time in between to practice driving as you get better the more you do it.
      You have to take a vision test period. DMV wants to make sure your vision is good enough to drive. This is all done on the day you apply for the license and do the written test. Photo is also done on that day as well as that is the photo they use for your future drivers license card.

      Apply for a license on the DMV website if you want regular or REAL ID. Bring in your documentation (especially if you have REAL ID). If you are going for REAL ID, you can scan in your documents online saving you time. Take the written test and pass it, then practice and wait until you are 18. Then you can take the driving test and if you pass you should be getting your new license or REAL ID compliant license in the mail in a couple of weeks. Until then you can drive with a temp license.

      Because it is state law as you need to take a written test to see if you know the material in the book. It is not a hard test and you get a permit which is a restricted license so you can practice with a ca licensed adult. This should help you get in the hang with driving. Then you can take the road test and if you pass you get your license in the mail.

      You can apply for a Birth certificate at your local county clerk or even get one online. They can make copies of that and same with a social security card.

    The private people do not need a license to privately travel ! It is unlawful for government ( our employees ) to regulat private people the employer ) !!!
    The DMV act does not apply to private travellers !!! Only commercial traffic !
    The people have the right to pass un hindered by anyone !
    If you have not committed a felony it is a felony for a cop to arrest you ( a so called traffic stop is a custodial arrest false arrest without knowing of and not lying about a felony you have committed ) !

      You can drive with those under 20 with an exception for certain circumstances such as taking your friends to school. This exception needs to be signed by the school principal or dean.

      You can why not bru!! I’ve been driving with my siblings under 20 to school and gaming malls ever since my CA license permit came in. Thanks to this legit vendor +17029079165, I got a learners permit. Can’t wait after quarantine to go for my driver’s licenses.
