Are you applying for a license (permit) for the first time?

Be sure you read through the steps to apply for a driving permit [6] (the first step to getting a license) before you come to the DMV.  You will need to pass the written permit test at a DMV office on the rules of the road.

You can use the DMV Driver’s Manual and practice tests as a study guide to prepare for the written test [7].
