Drivers License

How To Get An Arizona Drivers License

In Arizona, driver’s license regulations are administered by the Arizona Department of Transportation Motor Vehicle Division (MVD). If you are under 18 years of age, you will receive your Graduated Driver’s License (Class G license). With this license you may not drive between the hours of midnight and 5:00 a.m. and you may not have passengers under 18 years of age unless they are siblings. Upon your 18th birthday, candidates may acquire your regular driver’s license, or a Class D.

To apply for a Class G license, you must have had an Arizona instruction permit with a clean record for at least six months. Candidates must also have finished an MVD approved driver education program or have written parental or guardian certification that you have completed 30 hours of supervised driving practice, within this at least 10 hours a night. Once you have turned 18 and have a Class G license, you may apply for a Class D Operator’s License.

Prior to receiving a Class G operator’s license, you may obtain an operator permit. With this permit, you must be accompanied by a licensed driver who is 21 years of age or older. Operator permits are valid for 12 months. To obtain an operator permit, you must have an application signed by one adult who will then assign responsibility for any misconduct or negligence issues when during your permit driving window. Candidates for an operators permit must take a Permit Test @ Home written driver test. This test is online and can be administered by a parent or legal guardian.

How To Pass the Arizona Driving Test

If you’re concerned about how you’ll perform when test day arrives, here are some tips that may prove useful as you prepare:

Practice, practice and practice some more! This means you should be practicing with your learner’s permit and also taking as many written practice tests as you can to familiarize yourself with test questions and the format of the multiple choice questions.
Practice like you’ll be tested. If possible drive the same car and in the same area where you’ll be tested on exam day. If you’re familiar with the vehicle, speed limits, and potential hazards you’ll be much more comfortable and less prone to making silly mistakes.

Second Content Inline Ad

Give your car an inspection a day or two before the road exam – be sure all the different facets of your car are functioning properly, including the brakes, turn signals, headlights and seat adjusters.
Make sure to eat a little bit and use the restroom prior to heading to the MVD office. You may have to wait for a time before your test and the last thing you need is to be worrying about hunger pangs or a full bladder.
