Congratulations on starting the process of applying for your Eagle Point Oregon Learner’s Permit or first Eagle Point Oregon driver’s license. Eagle Point Oregon has a Graduated Driver License Program for Eagle Point Oregon teen drivers, and there are a few things to keep in mind to make sure that applying for your first Eagle Point Oregon driver’s license goes as smoothly as possible. So let’s get started.

The Eagle Point Oregon Instructional Permit or Eagle Point Oregon Learner’s Permit

When you turn 15, you can finally apply for an Eagle Point Oregon Instruction Permit, otherwise known as an Eagle Point Oregon Learner’s Permit. In order to apply, you must:

• Be between the ages of 15-17 and a resident of Eagle Point Oregon
• Provide proper identification and proof of a Social Security Number
• Provide proof of school enrollment
• Surrender your Eagle Point Oregon Identification card (if you have one)
• Bring your parent/guardian to sign your application form
• Bring the correct license fee

Once you’re ready, head on down to your local Eagle Point Oregon Department of Motor Vehicles (DMV) with your parent or guardian and submit your application. Then, you’ll have to take a vision test, as well as the class C knowledge test. If you survive, then congratulations. You’ve just earned your Eagle Point Oregon Instruction Permit, which is valid for 24 months from the date it was issued.

Remember, you must practice driving with your parent, guardian, driving instructor, or licensed driver who is at least 21, has a valid driver license, and is sitting beside you. All passengers must wear seatbelts, and be sure to carry your Eagle Point Oregon Instruction Permit with you at all times.

Once you’ve held your Eagle Point Oregon Learner’s Permit for 6 months and have met a few more requirements, you’ll be ready for the next step in the Eagle Point Oregon Graduated License Program, the Eagle Point Oregon Provisional License.

The Eagle Point Oregon Provisional Driver License and Eagle Point Oregon Full Driver License

You can apply for your Eagle Point Oregon Probationary Driver License once you’ve held your Eagle Point Oregon Temporary Instruction Permit for 6 months and have met a few requirements in addition to the identification requirements listed in the Eagle Point Oregon Instruction Permit section:

• Hold your Eagle Point Oregon Instruction Permit for at least 6 months in good standing
• Complete 50 hours of behind-the-wheel driving in an Eagle Point Oregon approved traffic education safety school or...

• Pass a Safe Driving Practice Test
• Make an appointment for the dreaded Eagle Point Oregon road test
• Be able to provide proof of insurance on the car you’ll use to take the test.
• Bring the appropriate testing fees

If you’ve completed these requirements, then make your appointment and head on down to your local Eagle Point Oregon DMV. Then you’ll have to take the dreaded Eagle Point Oregon driving test! If you pass, then congratulations. You’ve just earned your Eagle Point Oregon Provisional License. However you’ll still have to drive with a few restrictions for the time being
