Here are the important steps that each Florida first time driver should be familiar with:

One Florida learner permit requirement is that you must complete a 4-hour drug and alcohol class that covers Florida traffic law, substance abuse education, the penalties and consequences of DUI, and other topics. This course is also sometimes known as:

Traffic Law Substance Abuse Education Course

These are many different names for the same 4-hour course. You can sign up here to take this course on the Internet.

Another requirement for a Florida first time driver to get a Florida driver license is that you must pass the driver license test, which will ask you 20 questions each on Florida road signs and road rules. This test also goes by the following names:

  • Class E License Exam
  • Class E Learner Permit Test
  • Learner Permit Test
  • Learner Permit Test
  • Restricted license test

You can take your driver license test after you finish your Florida first time driver learners permit course. To prepare for the driver license test, you must study the Florida drivers handbook, which you can read online right here. Click here to see the Florida Drivers Handbook.

How old do I have to be to take the Florida first time driver learners permit course and driver license test?

You can complete BOTH before your 15th birthday! You must be at least 15 to apply for your first Florida driver license.

What else will I need to do to get my Florida license?

To learn what else the Florida Department of Highway Safety and Motor Vehicles will require for you to get your learner permit, please refer to our detailed guide on how to get a Florida drivers license.

What if I already have a driver license?

Persons who hold or have held a valid Florida license, a valid license from any other U.S. state, or a license from certain other countries, do not have to complete the learners permit course. Check with your local Florida driver license office or call DriverLicenseSchool.com if you are not sure whether you need to sign up for this course.
