Sure, no problem. Your certificate will be valid for one year period, starting on the date it was issued to you. In case you have a certificate of completion, that will be valid for a two years period.
Great, thanks. Another question, please. What do i need to know for doing the road test? Need to practice something specific?
Certainly. It's a road test, so you'll need to practice some basics moves, so they know you are ready, for example you must focus on steering and acceleration, basic stuff.
Oh, i see, thanks. Sorry, but again about the certificate, did you mention a different one from pre-licensing, and that being valid for a greater period?
That would be Student Completion Certificate, and that will be valid for a two years period, unlike your Pre-licensing that only is valid for one year.
One more thing for New York residents. What happens if anyone drives without a driver's license in New York State?
A police officer can use this as evidence to issue a traffic ticket if you drive in New York State without a New York State driver's license or vehicle registration.
What happens if I pay taxes or my children attend school in another state?
If you pay taxes or your children attend school in another state, a judge considers these facts to decide if your intention is to make New York a "fixed and permanent" residence. Under this law, students from other states or other nations who attend school in New York State are generally not considered New York residents.
okay. Another question, I am planning to return to my country and I will need my foreign driver's license.
ask the test drive examiner how to make sure your foreign driver's license is not destroyed.
and what restrictions are there if you are under 18?
