Instruction and Learner's Permits - California DMV
The letter must be signed by a school official stating that the completed courses you have taken are equivalent to a California secondary school course as described in Section 10020 of Title 5 of the California Code of Regulations and on form “To Secondary Schools Other Than California Schools” (DL 33). Obtain a DL 33 form from your local DMV office or by calling DMV at 1-800-777-0133. Send the DL 33 form to your out-of-state school for completion. An out-of-state driving instruction permit is not acceptable proof of DE/DT.
What if my provisional instruction permit expires before I take the driving test?
The California Driver’s License or ID Card Application and fee is valid for 12 months after you apply. If your application expires before you have held your provisional instruction permit for the required six months to take your driving test, you’ll need to reapply at a DMV office. You will get cumulative credit for the time you held your instruction permit that counts towards your six-month requirement. Make sure to bring both your expired and valid provisional instruction permits when you take your driving test to show proof of credit.
When is the knowledge test available?
Knowledge tests (online and in-office) can be completed during DMV business hours. Online testing must be started before 4:00 p.m. and testing in-office before 4:30 p.m. Study the handbook and make use of the practice tests – we want you to pass!
If I have a valid driver’s license from another country, do I need an accompanying driver to and from the drive test?
Yes.

The name on my identity document isn't my current name. How do I change it?
Your current true full name (first, middle, last) needs to appear on your identity document. If you need to make a name change, learn how you can update info on your DL/ID card.

Child Passenger Safety
When it comes to selecting the right car seat for your child, one size does not fit all. There are three types of car seats: rear-facing, forward-facing, and the booster, with each best suited to protect a child based on their age and size.
California’s Occupant Protection Law
California law requires all children under two years old to ride in a rear-facing car seat, unless the child weighs 40 or more pounds OR is 40 or more inches tall.
Children under the age of 8 are required to be secured in a car or booster seat. Children who are 8 years old OR at least 4’9” may be secured by a booster seat, but at minimum wear a seat belt.
Choosing A Car Seat
Keep your child in rear and forward-facing seats as long as possible. Do not rush to move a child into a booster seat before they are ready. Booster seats are recommended until a child reaches a height of 4’9”.
All children 13 and under should ride in the back seat.
To learn more about finding and using the correct car seat, visit the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration website.
Find a Car Seat Check Location
Every local California Highway Patrol (CHP) office does child safety seat checks. Contact your local office for dates, locations and details about car seats, including safety seat check events, by visiting the CHP website.

​​Electric Bicycle Training and SafetyElectric Bicycles (E-Bikes) are a growing trend that allow riders to bike at higher speeds and travel greater distances.  With the increase in E-Bike popularity, the need for safety education and training is essential. Click on the link to take the E-Bike training under the “Electric Bicycle Training and Safety” title. 

Bicycle and Pedestrian Safety is a Shared Responsibility. Share the road.   As more Californians choose walking and bicycling as primary modes of transportation, creating a safer highway environment for all roadway users is increasingly important. We all share the responsibility to make sure California roads are safe for everyone. This is achieved by following the rules of the road, watching out for others, and using courtesy while on the road.
Traffic school | California Courts | Self Help Guide
For example, equipment offenses (like a tail light being out) or alcohol or drug-related offenses. If you didn't get the notice from the court or aren't sure if you are eligible, you can contact the court to find out. 
If you are eligible, pay a fee, sign-up, and go to traffic school
Contact the court if you want to do traffic school. The clerk or judge will give you a deadline to finish traffic school. Pay the court and a traffic school fee. Sign-up for traffic school. The DMV has a list of approved traffic schools. 
If you complete traffic school, you don't get the point added to your DMV record (if you have a noncommercial drivers' license). If you have a commercial drivers' license the rules are different.

Snakes on a trail: Tips for hiking in rattlesnake country
Keep an eye on the snake in case it decides to escape your way. When motivated, they can glide fairly quickly.
How dangerous are they?
A rattlesnake bite can cause painful swelling, bruising and tissue damage. Rattlesnake venom can be lethal after several hours if not treated, but bites are rarely fatal because antivenom drugs are so effective. 
The good news is the odds of being bitten by a rattlesnake are low. In a state of 39 million people,  approximately 300 rattlesnake bites are reported annually to the California Poison Control System.  
Do rattlesnakes warn you by rattling?
The rattlesnake’s rattling sounds like a jet of water hitting a spinning fan – and while they use it as a warning when threatened, they may not take the time to rattle if they’re suddenly startled. Snakes can lose rattles, too, so don’t count on hearing them. 

What should I do if one bites me?
Act quickly to get help, but stay calm. Get medical attention as soon as possible. Antivenom sweeps up the venom.
Exertion spreads the venom faster, so keep your heart rate as slow as you can. Don’t waste time trying to catch or kill the snake. Remove rings, watches or bands that may restrict swelling.
Keep the bite about level with your heart. Do not apply a tourniquet or cut the bite to get the venom out. Don’t apply ice or drink alcohol.
What should I do if I’m far from help?
Use your phone to call for help and follow the instructions you’re given. Otherwise, walk out as calmly as you can to the nearest phone signal or assistance. It’s better to move toward help than wait, if you’re uncertain when help may come.
How do I keep from being bitten?
A California study found two-thirds of rattlesnake bites were on the hand or arm, and 80 percent of victims were young men.  Most bites occur from handling or accidentally touching snakes.  

Don’t pick up or get close to snakes.
Contesting a Traffic Ticket | Superior Court of California | County of Alameda

Interpreter
Interpreter services are available, but must be ordered at the time of arraignment or request for a court trial.

Frequently Asked Questions
How long will the trial take?
Most trials take a very short amount of time, but you should plan to be at court for at least 3 hours on that day. REMEMBER TO CHECK YOUR TRIAL DATE, DEPARTMENT, AND TIME.
Should my witnesses appear?
If you have witnesses that are necessary to your defense, you should have them subpoenaed to appear in court. You can obtain the subpoena form from the Clerk's Office. Do this well in advance of your trial date. Complete the subpoena form, have the subpoena served, and file the subpoena with the proof of service with the Court on or before your trial date. NOTE: A defendant cannot serve the subpoena. The person served (witnesses) must be given reasonable advance notice of the date and time to appear for trial.
