Mount Vernon New York Online Driver Education and Mount Vernon New York Licensing Procedures
Congratulations on starting the process of applying for your Mount Vernon New York Learner’s Permit or first Mount Vernon New York driver’s license. Mount Vernon New York has a Graduated Driver License Program for Mount Vernon New York teen drivers, and there are a few things to keep in mind to make sure that applying for your first Mount Vernon New York driver’s license goes as smoothly as possible. So let’s get started.
The Mount Vernon New York Instructional Permit or Mount Vernon New York Learner’s Permit
When you turn 16, you can apply for a Mount Vernon New York Learner’s Permit. You’ll need the following:
- Proof of Identity
- Mount Vernon New York Learner’s Permit application (which must be signed by your parent/guardian)
- Driver’s license fee
If you’ve got all of the necessary materials, head on down to your local Mount Vernon New York Department of Motor Vehicles (DMV) and submit your application. Then, you’ll have to pass a vision test, as well as a written test. If you pass, then congratulations. You’ve just earned your Mount Vernon New York Instructional Permit!
Remember, you must practice driving with your parent, guardian, driving instructor, or licensed driver who is at least 21. All passengers must wear seatbelts, and be sure to carry your Mount Vernon New York Learner’s Permit with you at all times.
When you’ve held your Mount Vernon New York Learner’s Permit for 6 months and have met a few requirements, you’ll be ready for the next step in the Mount Vernon New York Graduated License Program.
The Mount Vernon New York Provisional Driver License or Mount Vernon New York Full License
You can apply for your Mount Vernon New York State license once you’ve held your Mount Vernon New York Instructional Permit for 6 months and have met the following requirements:
- Hold the Mount Vernon New York Learner’s Permit for 6 months without incident
- Complete 50 hours of supervised driving experience
- 15 hours must be at night
- complete a Mount Vernon New York approved driver education course
If you’ve completed these requirements, schedule an appointment, then head on down to your local Mount Vernon New York DMV. Your parent/guardian must verify that you’ve completed the required supervised driving practice. Pay the license fee, and then you’ll have to take the dreaded road test! If you pass, then congratulations. You’ve just earned your Mount Vernon New York License. However, you’ll still have to drive with a few restrictions until you’ve held your new license for at least 12 months without incident.
Mount Vernon New York Teen Driver License Restrictions and Penalties

Mount Vernon New York Auto Insurance Financial Responsibility Laws
Once you receive your Mount Vernon New York Learner’s Permit or Mount Vernon New York Provisional driver’s license, you’re ready to drive--or are you? Not quite yet, because New York drivers are required by law to be covered by liability insurance. The minimum liability insurance coverage is:

LIVE CHATPlease be aware that although TeenDrivingCourse.com is sufficient for fulfilling driver education requirements in some states, in other states TeenDrivingCourse.com is only offered as a supplement to the driver education and/or training you will receive at a state-approved driving school. To find out if TeenDrivingCourse.com will meet your state's minimum driver education requirements, we recommend that you check with the Mount Vernon New York Department of Motor Vehicles (DMV).
Again, this is a general rule and may not apply in Mount Vernon New York, so we suggest you contact your local Mount Vernon New York driver's license office and ask exactly what documentation you will be required to provide when you go to take your Mount Vernon New York learner's permit exam.
