Your Guide to Columbia Missouri Driver's Licensing Procedures
On behalf of the State of Columbia Missouri, we're delighted that you have chosen to start the process of applying for your Columbia Missouri learner's permit or first Columbia Missouri driver's license. There are a few things you need to know about Columbia Missouri's Graduated Driver license Program for Columbia Missouri teen drivers, to make sure that your experience getting your Columbia Missouri driver's license goes as smoothly as possible. So, what are we waiting for?
The Columbia Missouri Instructional Permit and Columbia Missouri learner's Permit
Beginning the adventure of learning to drive can be both exciting and nerve-racking. The following tips can help you stay on track. When you turn 15, you can apply for a Columbia Missouri learner's Permit. This license allows you to practice driving provided there's a parent, guardian, or driving instructor with you (but when you turn 16, you can also practice with a licensed driver who is 21). It is valid for 12 months, and can be renewed once.
To apply for a Columbia Missouri learner's permit you'll need the following:
- A qualified person must accompany you to sign a permission statement
- $3.50 fee
- Application
Bring these materials to your local Columbia Missouri Driver Examination Station. Then you'll have to pass the required road sign, vision, and written tests. Your reward for surviving this far is a Columbia Missouri learner's permit!
A few more things to keep in mind: all passengers must wear seatbelts, and you must carry your Columbia Missouri Instruction Permit with you at all times. After you've had your Columbia Missouri learner's permit for 182 days, you'll be ready for the next step in the Columbia Missouri Graduated License Program.
The Columbia Missouri Provisional License and Columbia Missouri Full License
The next stage is the Columbia Missouri provisional license. In order to apply, you'll need to make sure you've satisfied a few Columbia Missouri State requirements before heading down to the nearest Columbia Missouri Driver Examination Station:
- No traffic convictions within the last 6 months
- Bring the same information as for the Columbia Missouri learner's Permit
- $7.50 fee
- Hold your Columbia Missouri learner's Permit for at least 182 days
- No alcohol-related convictions for the last 12 months
- complete 40 hours of driving instruction
- 10 of these hours must be at night
If you've satisfied these requirements, head to the nearest Columbia Missouri Driver Service Center, where you'll pay the required fee and submit your Columbia Missouri intermediate License application. If it's been more than one year since you took the required vision, road sign, and written tests, you'll have to take them again. Once you get this far, all that's left is the dreaded road test. If you pass, then congratulations! You've just earned your Columbia Missouri intermediate driver license.
Columbia Missouri Teen Driver License Restrictions and Penalties
Before you can be granted a full driver's license, you must show that you're able to drive responsibly with certain restrictions. Briefly, these are:
- You may not drive between 1AM and 5AM unless it is to or from a school activity, job, or emergency or you are accompanied by a licensed driver 21 or older
- For the first 6 months, you may not drive with more than one passenger who is under 19 (unless they're a member of your family)
- After the first 6 months, you may not drive with more than three passengers under 19 (unless they're family)
Once you've driven without any alcohol-related convictions or traffic violations for 12 months, you can receive your Columbia Missouri under-21 full driver license. You know the drill--just bring $10 to your local Columbia Missouri Driver License Station. And congrats again!
Columbia Missouri Auto Insurance Columbia Missouri Financial Responsibility Laws
Don't think you're ready to drive just because you now have a Columbia Missouri driver's license. You still must obtain liability insurance for your vehicle.
The minimum liability insurance coverage is:
- $25,000 per person for a single accident
- $50,000 bodily injury per accident
- $10,000 for property damage
- $25,000 bodily injury per person for Uninsured Motorists
- $50,000 bodily injury per accident for Uninsured Motorists
Driving without Columbia Missouri mandatory liability insurance carries a risk that your Columbia Missouri learner's permit or Columbia Missouri intermediate license could be suspended and you could be fined.
Columbia Missouri Drunk Driving, Cell Phone, and Text Messaging Laws
Knowing the Columbia Missouri drunk driving, cell phone, and text messaging laws is necessary to ensure the safety of drivers and their passengers. This is especially true for a newer driver like yourself.
DUI Laws. Like most states, Columbia Missouri has a Zero Tolerance Law for underage drinking, and if you are convicted of a Columbia Missouri DUI or Columbia Missouri DWI, you face penalties in addition to those listed below.
Upon your first conviction of a Columbia Missouri DUI, you'll face the following penalties:
- Jail sentence up to 6 months
- License restriction 60 days
- $45 License Reinstatement fee
- Up to $500 fine
- Possible Ignition Interlock Device installation
- License suspension 30 days
We would hope you'd learn your lesson the first time, but further Columbia Missouri DUI convictions will result in increased jail time, community service, fines, and Columbia Missouri license suspension or even license revocation.
Cell Phone Use. Studies consistently show that cell phone use and driving are a dangerous combination. Currently, Columbia Missouri teen drivers are prohibited from using cell phones to text message while driving.
