Becoming a licensed driver in Kentucky takes time and effort, but the licensing process is essential for building your knowledge and improving your driving skills. Aspiring drivers may apply for an instruction permit when they turn 16. They must pass a vision screening and a 40-question knowledge exam.
What happens next depends on their ages. Before proceeding to an intermediate license, aspiring drivers under 18 must hold the learner’s permit for at least 180 days, complete 60 hours of supervised driving (including 10 at night), and pass a road test. Once issued an intermediate license, they may drive unsupervised (subject to certain restrictions), and they must complete an approved driver training program unless they turn 18 first.
In contrast, aspiring drivers at least 18 years of age are not required to complete 60 hours of supervised driving or an approved driver training program. Once they pass the road test, they will be issued a full, unrestricted driver’s license. Furthermore, for drivers at least 21 years of age, the required minimum holding period for the permit is just 30 days.
