The drive from Key West to Miami is one of the most scenic routes in the United States, taking you along the iconic Overseas Highway (U.S. Route 1). Begin your journey at the southernmost point of the U.S. and make your way up to the Magic City. One of the most breathtaking parts of this drive is the Seven Mile Bridge (which is actually 6.8 miles long). We know you’re eager to explore Florida’s beauty from behind the wheel of your favorite vehicle, but you must do so as a licensed driver.

Teenagers can get a learner’s permit as soon as they turn 15. The DMV requires minor applicants to complete a four-hour Drugs Alcohol Traffic Awareness (DATA) course, pay the licensing fee, pass a 50-question written knowledge exam, meet school attendance requirements, and provide signed parental consent. After driving with a learner’s permit for one year with no traffic convictions, teenagers can take the behind-the-wheel road test and get a driver’s license. Adults are not required to hold a learner’s permit; they can take the road test as soon as they feel ready. However, they must also complete the DATA course, pay the licensing fee, pass the official written knowledge exam, and pass the skills test.

About the Florida learner permit

Our Florida DMV permit practice tests are a game changer for students who struggle with test anxiety. If you have a hard time understanding driving theory, this educational resource can strengthen your knowledge through repetition and consistent practice. Each practice test consists of 40 multiple-choice questions based on the official Florida driver license handbook (Florida DMV Handbook (FL Driver's Manual) 2025). Since we have omitted any timer from this intuitive tool, you should avoid rushing through the questions. Take your time and carefully read each question and its answer choices. Too many students fail under the pressure of a countdown. They become nervous and make avoidable mistakes. Our practice tests familiarize you with the content and format of the official written knowledge test so you’ll know what to expect when the exam day comes.

We know what it takes to pass. And we’ve got the proof.
