How to Get My Drivers License in Florida?

Question by Allenph: How to get my drivers license in Florida?
So I am turning 16 in a week and I have been looking into how I am going to get my license. I do have a permit that I will have had for around a year…but it is from Utah. Am I required to get another permit and hold it for 6 months before applying for a license (that is how it is in Utah)? What is the “Traffic Law & Substance Abuse Education Course”? Was it the test I took for my permit? A new written test?

On another note how hard is the driving test? I have pretty much mastered most of driving in the year I have had my permit, but I still haven’t even attempted parallel parking. Do I really need to study for the written test or is it going to be common sense like the permit test? Thanks in advanced!

Your Utah permit is valid only in Utah. Each state has its own requirements.
Yes, you need a new permit for Florida.
The “Traffic Law & Substance Abuse Education Course” is another course you have to take in Florida.

Many people fool themselves into thinking they don’t need to study for the tests. They fail.
