Lockport New York Online Driver Education and Lockport New York Licensing Procedures
Congratulations on starting the process of applying for your Lockport New York Learner’s Permit or first Lockport New York driver’s license. Lockport New York has a Graduated Driver License Program for Lockport New York teen drivers, and there are a few things to keep in mind to make sure that applying for your first Lockport New York driver’s license goes as smoothly as possible. So let’s get started.
The Lockport New York Instructional Permit or Lockport New York Learner’s Permit
When you turn 16, you can apply for a Lockport New York Learner’s Permit. You’ll need the following:
- Proof of Identity
- Lockport New York Learner’s Permit application (which must be signed by your parent/guardian)
- Driver’s license fee
If you’ve got all of the necessary materials, head on down to your local Lockport New York Department of Motor Vehicles (DMV) and submit your application. Then, you’ll have to pass a vision test, as well as a written test. If you pass, then congratulations. You’ve just earned your Lockport New York Instructional Permit!
Remember, you must practice driving with your parent, guardian, driving instructor, or licensed driver who is at least 21. All passengers must wear seatbelts, and be sure to carry your Lockport New York Learner’s Permit with you at all times.
When you’ve held your Lockport New York Learner’s Permit for 6 months and have met a few requirements, you’ll be ready for the next step in the Lockport New York Graduated License Program.
The Lockport New York Provisional Driver License or Lockport New York Full License
You can apply for your Lockport New York State license once you’ve held your Lockport New York Instructional Permit for 6 months and have met the following requirements:
- Hold the Lockport New York Learner’s Permit for 6 months without incident
- Complete 50 hours of supervised driving experience
- 15 hours must be at night
- complete a Lockport New York approved driver education course
If you’ve completed these requirements, schedule an appointment, then head on down to your local Lockport New York DMV. Your parent/guardian must verify that you’ve completed the required supervised driving practice. Pay the license fee, and then you’ll have to take the dreaded road test! If you pass, then congratulations. You’ve just earned your Lockport New York License. However, you’ll still have to drive with a few restrictions until you’ve held your new license for at least 12 months without incident.
Lockport New York Teen Driver License Restrictions and Penalties

- No driving in a bridge/tunnel under the jurisdiction of the Triborough Bridge & Tunnel Authority

Lockport New York Auto Insurance Financial Responsibility Laws
Once you receive your Lockport New York Learner’s Permit or Lockport New York Provisional driver’s license, you’re ready to drive--or are you? Not quite yet, because New York drivers are required by law to be covered by liability insurance. The minimum liability insurance coverage is:
