Florida Learner's Permit Practice Test

The required minimum age to apply for a Florida driver license is 16 years. This is because Florida has a Graduated Driver Licensing (GDL) program, which requires teenagers to go through three stages before obtaining a full driver license. The first stage, a learner's license, can be obtained at age 15 but requires a licensed driver who is at least 21 years old to accompany the teen while driving. At age 16, the second stage allows for unsupervised driving with restrictions. Once a teen turns 18, they can apply for a full driver license without any restrictions. Therefore, while the other choices may seem plausible, they do not accurately reflect the minimum age required to apply for a full driver license in Florida.
