Washington Washington,D.C. Online Driver Education and Licensing Procedures
We're happy that you have decided to begin the challenging process of applying for your Washington Washington,D.C. Learner's Permit or first Washington Washington,D.C. driver's license. Washington D.C. has a Graduated Driver License Program for Washington Washington,D.C. teen drivers, otherwise known as GRAD (Gradual Rearing of Adult Drivers) that allows new drivers to safely gain driving experience before obtaining full driving privileges. We know that learning to drive can be as daunting as it is exciting, and so we have put together this short information sheet to help you avoid any snags along the way. There are a few things to keep in mind to make sure that applying for your first Washington Washington,D.C. driver's license is as uncomplicated--and even rewarding--an experience as possible. Here's what you need to know:
The Washington Washington,D.C. Learner's Permit or Washington Washington,D.C. Instruction Permit
Once you turn 16, you can apply for a Washington Washington,D.C. Learner's Permit. In order to apply, you'll need the following:
- Notarized Parental Consent Form
- Valid proof of birth, social security number, and DC residency
- Or a valid DC identification card
Once you have everything, head on down to your nearest Washington Washington,D.C. Driver Service Center and submit your application. Then, you'll have to take the following tests:
- knowledge test (you'll only have 50 minutes to take the knowledge test, so study your D.C. driver manual well!)
- vision screening
Remember, you must practice driving with your parent, guardian, driving instructor, or licensed driver who is 21 years or older. Also, D.C. law prohibits you from using a cell phone or other electronic device while driving (even with a hands-free accessory). We know how tempting it is to call or text friends and family, but studies show that a distracted driver is a dangerous driver! Finally, your driving hours are restricted to:
- September - June: Sunday to Thursday from 6 am - 9 pm; Friday and Saturday from 6 am - 9 pm
- July and August: Everyday from 6 am - 9 pm
Once you've had your Washington Washington,D.C. Learner's Permit for 6 months, you'll be eligible for the next step in the Washington Washington,D.C. Graduated License Program, the Washington Washington,D.C. Provisional Driver's License.
The Washington Washington,D.C. Intermediate Driver License or Washington Washington,D.C. Provisional License
You can apply for your Washington Washington,D.C. Provisional Driver's License once you turn 16. However, you'll need to make sure you meet these requirements:
- Hold your Washington Washington,D.C. Learner's Permit for at least 6 months
- Be at least 16 years and 6 months old
- Complete the required 40 hours of behind-the-wheel driving with an experienced driver
- Have your parent/guardian or driving instructor sign your 40 hours Certification for Eligibility for Provisional License form
- Provide a photocopy of the supervising driver's license
- Drive violation free for six months
Then, make an appointment and head on down to your nearest Washington Washington,D.C. Driver Service Center again. Remember to bring your identification documents and your Washington Washington,D.C. Learner's Permit. Now all that's left is to take the dreaded Washington Washington,D.C. road test! If you pass, then pat yourself on the back once again. You've just earned your Washington Washington,D.C. Provisional Driver's License. However, you'll still have to drive with a few restrictions for just a little while longer.
Washington Washington,D.C. Teen Driver License Restrictions and Penalties

- September - June: Sunday - Thursday, 6 am to 10:59 pm; Friday & Saturday, 6 am to 11:59 pm
- July & August: Everyday, 6 am to 11:59 pm
Once you turn 17 and have held your Washington Washington,D.C. Provisional license for 6 months, you finally get to apply for your Washington Washington,D.C. Regular Driver License. Just remember to fill out the required 10 hours Certification Form. At last, you drive unrestricted--mostly. If you're under 18, you can only have 2 passengers under 21 who aren't immediate family members and you'll have to follow these driving hours:
- September - June: Sunday - Thursday, 6 am to 10:59 pm; Friday & Saturday, 6 am to 11:59 pm
- July & August: Everyday, 6 am to 11:59 pm
