A Florida learner’s permit is required to legally practice driving with the required supervision and with certain restrictions on public roadways. The Class E knowledge exam (a.k.a. Florida learner’s permit test) and the TLSAE drug and alcohol course must be completed successfully before applying for a Florida learner’s permit and both are available here on Ticketschool.com!
Under the age of 18
The State of Florida requires that you get a learner’s permit and log 50 hours of driving (10 hours of which are at night) with required supervision before you can apply for your Class E driver’s license. You must first successfully pass the Class E knowledge exam and the TLSAE drug and alcohol course to apply for your learner’s permit. You are eligible to take the Class E test or TLSAE course if you are at least 14 years old, but you cannot apply for your learner’s permit until you turn 15. The state also requires that you hold your learner’s permit for at least one year before applying for your driver’s license.
Over the age of 18
While not required, it is highly encouraged that you get a learner’s permit and do at least some practice driving with the required supervision before taking the driving skills test and applying for your Florida driver’s license. Passing the Class E knowledge exam and TLSAE course are both still required regardless of whether you decide to apply for a learner’s license or driver’s license. Unfortunately, the Class E knowledge exam cannot be taken with us online and must be taken in person at a driver license or tax collector’s office when you are 18 or older.
