Driver's License
After your teen has learned to drive, he is ready to get a driver's license.
In order to get his license, there are different things your teen needs to do.
To get his driver's license, your teen must do these things:
- Pass the Test of Written Knowledge
- Pass an eye exam
- Get his driver's permit
- Practice driving
- Take the driving text
Bring these things to the DMV when you take the driving test:
- Permit
- social security number
- high school card
- Passport or birth certificate
Remember these things:
- Always check with your local DMV. Make an appointment for your child to come in to take the test.
- The written test has questions about signs and signals, traffic rules and drunk-driving laws.
- Your child can prepare for the test by studying the driver's manual
- Your child NEEDS to let the DMV know that he has a hearing loss.
- MAKE SURE he gets a special small sticker on his driver's license to show he has a hearing loss:
- This is important because if your child ever gets in an accident or is pulled over, the police
will see on his driver's license that he has a hearing loss.
- The police will then know to communicate by writing back and forth or to find an interpreter.
