Licensing & Test ReadinessStandalone practice
Jordan lives in South Dakota and is 13 years and 10 months old. Jordan wants to start supervised practice on an instruction permit as soon as the law allows. When is the earliest time that Jordan can get the permit?
Correct answer: In two months, when Jordan turns 14
Why
In South Dakota, a new driver starts with an instruction permit at age 14 and practices with a qualified adult. After the permit period, a minor can move to a restricted minor's permit, and at 16 or older to an operator's license. Each step needs a parent's or guardian's consent until the driver turns 18.
