After obtaining your learner's permit, you can start behind-the-wheel drivers training in California. For teens under 18, the permit must be signed by a driving instructor after your first lesson to become valid for supervised driving with a licensed adult. Starting behind-the-wheel training early helps you gain valuable experience in various driving conditions, preparing you for the California driving test.
A provisional license in California is an intermediate license for teens under 18 who have held their learner's permit for at least six months, completed 50 hours of supervised driving, and passed the California driving test. With this license, teens can drive independently but must observe specific restrictions, such as no passengers under 20 and no driving between 11 PM and 5 AM without a licensed adult. Once you turn 18, the provisional restrictions are lifted, and it automatically converts to a full driver's license.
If you're under 18, California requires six hours of professional behind-the-wheel drivers training, in addition to drivers ed. This training must be completed with a certified instructor and is designed to help you gain practical driving skills. Adults over 18 aren't required to take driving lessons but are encouraged to do so if they want to build confidence before the driving test.
The amount of study time needed for the California permit test depends on your familiarity with driving laws. Most students benefit from reviewing the California DMV handbook, taking multiple California permit practice tests, and studying consistently over a few days or weeks. Our California DMV practice tests are especially helpful for gauging your readiness and increasing your chances of passing on the first try.
