Hollandale Mississippi Online Driver Education and Hollandale Mississippi Licensing Procedures
Congratulations on starting the process of applying for your Hollandale Mississippi Learner's Permit or first Hollandale Mississippi Driver's license. Hollandale Mississippi has a Graduated Driver License Program for Hollandale Mississippi teen drivers, and there are a few things to keep in mind to make sure that applying for your first Hollandale Mississippi driving license goes as smoothly as possible. So let's get started.
Hollandale Mississippi Instructional Permit and Hollandale Mississippi Learner's Permit
The minimum age to apply for a Hollandale Mississippi Learner's Permit is 14 and a half, but this permit will only allow you to practice as part of a Hollandale Mississippi approved driver education program. At 15, you can apply for a regular old Hollandale Mississippi Learner's Permit. You'll need the following:
- Application with notarized signatures from both your parents/guardians
- Social Security Card or printout from the Social Security Administration
- State-issued copy of your birth certificate (hospital certificates NOT acceptable)
- Signed Certificate of School Attendance
- $4 fee (cash only)
Bring these materials to your local Hollandale Mississippi Driver Service center. Then you'll have to pass the required vision and written tests. If you survived, then congratulations! You just earned your Hollandale Mississippi Instruction Permit.
Remember that with your Hollandale Mississippi Learner's Permit, you can only practice driving with your parent, guardian, or another licensed driver who is 21. Also, Hollandale Mississippi teen drivers are prohibited from using a cell phone to receive or send text messages while driving. Also, every passenger in your car must have their seatbelt fastened. After you've had your Hollandale Mississippi Learner's Permit for 6 months to 1 year (the official Hollandale Mississippi Department of Public Safety website gives conflicting wait periods), you'll be ready for the next step in the Hollandale Mississippi Graduated License Program.
