Pascagoula Mississippi Online Driver Education and Pascagoula Mississippi Licensing Procedures

Congratulations on starting the process of applying for your Pascagoula Mississippi Learner's Permit or first Pascagoula Mississippi Driver's license. Pascagoula Mississippi has a Graduated Driver License Program for Pascagoula Mississippi teen drivers, and there are a few things to keep in mind to make sure that applying for your first Pascagoula Mississippi driving license goes as smoothly as possible. So let's get started.

Pascagoula Mississippi Instructional Permit and Pascagoula Mississippi Learner's Permit

The minimum age to apply for a Pascagoula Mississippi Learner's Permit is 14 and a half, but this permit will only allow you to practice as part of a Pascagoula Mississippi approved driver education program. At 15, you can apply for a regular old Pascagoula Mississippi Learner's Permit. You'll need the following:

• Application with notarized signatures from both your parents/guardians
• Social Security Card or printout from the Social Security Administration
• State-issued copy of your birth certificate (hospital certificates NOT acceptable)
• Signed Certificate of School Attendance
• $4 fee (cash only)

Bring these materials to your local Pascagoula Mississippi Driver Service center. Then you'll have to pass the required vision and written tests. If you survived, then congratulations! You just earned your Pascagoula Mississippi Instruction Permit.

Remember that with your Pascagoula Mississippi Learner's Permit, you can only practice driving with your parent, guardian, or another licensed driver who is 21. Also, Pascagoula Mississippi teen drivers are prohibited from using a cell phone to receive or send text messages while driving. Also, every passenger in your car must have their seatbelt fastened. After you've had your Pascagoula Mississippi Learner's Permit for 6 months to 1 year (the official Pascagoula Mississippi Department of Public Safety website gives conflicting wait periods), you'll be ready for the next step in the Pascagoula Mississippi Graduated License Program.

The Pascagoula Mississippi Intermediate License and Pascagoula Mississippi Full License

In order to apply for your Pascagoula Mississippi Provisional driver's license, you'll need to make sure you follow a few Pascagoula Mississippi State requirements before heading down to your local Pascagoula Mississippi Driver service Center:

• Hold your Pascagoula Mississippi Learner's Permit for at least 6 months - 1 year without incident
• Bring the same information as for the Pascagoula Mississippi Learner's Permit
• $6 fee (cash only)

If you've completed these requirements, head on down to your local Pascagoula Mississippi Driver Service Center, where you'll pay the required fee and submit your Pascagoula Mississippi Intermediate License application. Then you'll have to take the dreaded road test! If you pass, then congratulations! You've just earned your Pascagoula Mississippi Intermediate driver license! However, you'll still have to drive with a few restrictions for the time being.
