Just written. Your local DMV website should have a sample test. ^_^

Yeah I'd recommend looking at the booklet thoroughly before ya take it. When I took when I was 15 I failed twice before passing, both times by like two or three questions. So then I studied that thing so much I could answer the questions for the Chauffers and the Bus Driver's licenses.:P

its not as bad for girls, even though it is statistically proven new drivers that are female are worse drivers (due to them getting distracted easier) i mean when i first started i wanted to get a 4 banger 65 mustang but the insurance would triple on it even though it was a 4 cylindar. out of curiosity i asked how bad it would be if i was a girl and it would have been 60 percent less increase then it would have with me being a guy

Congrats! :dance:
Do you leave in a rural or more urban location?
Wondering because if you live out in the country or at least in a rural area
you have more room and space to practice your driving skills.

Aw, just read through the book and you'll do fine. You only haffta take a written test to get your permit. Most of it's common sense anyhow. My favorite question was about what to do if you missed an exit on a highway. *chuckles* Yeah, just look through the booklet and you'll be fine. ^_^ *gives a plum* Happy highways.

The written test is pretty easy, as long as you've read the book. I read the book twice, and took notes cause I was so worried I'd fail. :eyeroll: The only questions I had a hard time with were questions like fines for DWI, or how long your license will be suspended if you do "this" or "that." I'm sure you'll do fine! :)

I only missed like one question on the written one. I don't think it was that important. Maybe it was something like "What do you do when the light is yellow?" and I put "Gun it." What? It makes sense, doesn't it?

I made like an 87 on the actual driver's test because I missed a couple of stop signs XP, but stuff like parallel parking wasn't that hard (probably because I practiced; alot).
