Licensing & Test ReadinessStandalone practice
A JOL applicant has no interruption or disqualifying event. What minimum consecutive period of a valid permit and clean driving record is required before the road test?
Correct answer: Six months.
Why
Hold a valid learner’s permit and maintain the required clean record for at least six consecutive months. A permit suspension interrupts the preparation period, which starts again after the suspension is lifted. The statute also identifies surchargeable incidents, specified permit suspensions, and alcohol- or drug-related convictions; simply waiting six calendar months does not erase those conditions.
