To obtain a driver’s license in Alaska, teen applicants must complete the Graduated Driver Licensing (GDL) program. This process begins by obtaining a learner’s permit, available for teens aged 14 or older. You must pass a written knowledge test and a vision test. Once you get a learner’s permit, you can practice driving under the supervision of a licensed driver who is at least 21 years old and has held a valid driver’s license for at least one year.
You can proceed to a provisional license once you have turned 16, have held a learner’s permit for 6 months, and have completed 40 hours (including 10 at night) of supervised driving. To obtain a provisional license, you must pass a road test where an examiner will evaluate your driving skills. After holding a provisional license for at least 6 months and turning 18 (17 with a completed provisional period), you can obtain a full driver’s license with no restrictions. Adults aged 18 or older can apply for a full driver’s license. They must pass a vision test, a written knowledge test, and a road skills exam.
