How to get a driver's license in America, and at what age? Can I take a driver's license under the age of fifteen?

Living in America without a car means having no legs. The United States is a country on wheels with developed transportation. It's inconvenient not to have a driver's license, so how do you get a driver's license? You can go to the nearest vehicle management office and submit the necessary documents to confirm your identity. You need to bring your passport, visa and student I-20 form. If you have a green card, original social security number, American birth certificate and credit card. You can take the written test first. California can take the Chinese exam. If you pass the written test, you can apply for a road test. If you pass the road test, you can get a driver's license. The following is the official website of California Vehicle Authority, which can be accessed. You can take a driver's license only when you are five and a half years old, but you need to meet certain conditions. Their parents or guardians must sign the DL44 form. Candidates must pass the examination of traffic regulations and road signs. If you don't pass the exam, you have to wait a week to retake it. If the candidate is between 15 and a half years old and 17 and a half years old, one of the following conditions must be met: 1. You have completed the Driver Education Plan (DE) and the Driver Training Plan (DT). (DL387, DL388, DL388A, OL237 or OL238)2. I have completed the driver education program and am participating in the driver training program. (DL387, DL392 and OL237).

When can I get a temporary driver's license, a full driver's license or an ID card after passing the written test?

It usually takes two weeks to a month to receive it, but if you don't receive it, please go to the vehicle management office to check if your mailing address is wrong, or ask the staff of the vehicle management office directly. If you haven't got your driver's license for more than one month, you can call DMVLegalOffice first to explain your specific situation, your identity, the validity period of your visa, etc. And then ask you why your driver's license hasn't arrived yet, lost mail, change of address and so on. Ask them what documents they need to add, and the staff will ask you to fax the necessary documents, such as temporary driver's license, passport, I-20, visa, white card, work permit, H- 1 or other necessary documents. Please be sure to write down your name, address and telephone number. After faxing these documents, the driver's license usually takes about 10 days to arrive.

Can I get a driver's license without a social security number?

If it is a class B visa, it needs to be valid for more than two months. Please provide your passport, visa and white card to the vehicle management office. If you have a China driver's license, you can apply for a temporary or full driver's license. If you have a class F student visa, please keep your I-20 form, passport, student ID card and credit card. You can apply for a driver's license directly at the DMV.

What materials should be prepared in the car in case of emergency?

Generally speaking, three things should be prepared: driver's license, vehicle registration documents and automobile insurance. In California, car insurance is compulsory. If you don't carry or buy insurance, you will be fined more than $800.00. Failure to bring a driver's license or vehicle registration certificate will be fined. So I suggest you put these three materials in the car and take your driver's license with you. In addition, it is best to prepare the records of the accident scene, or take photos and videos of the accident scene with the cheapest disposable camera or mobile phone.

What should I do if I am caught driving under the influence of alcohol and driving without a license?

I suggest that you never violate these two articles, because these two days are crimes in the United States, not simple traffic violations, and you may be arrested, which may also affect your student, work and even immigration status. Therefore, it is strongly recommended not to drink and drive, which will do more harm to others. But I really accidentally broke the rules and was given a ticket by the police. Please stay calm and be careful.

What should I do if I get a ticket for parking in a disabled parking space?

In America, the disabled are well taken care of. Usually, the nearest parking spaces are reserved for disabled people in various parking lots. Marked with a blue mark. Please don't park in the handicapped parking space. Stop temporarily. There are still people in the car. It is considered illegal to use disabled parking spaces to reverse or even overwhelm the blue sideline when parking. The punishment is very serious, which may lead to a fine of more than 400 dollars. So pay attention when parking.

What if I get a parking ticket?

Generally, parking tickets are issued by local police stations because they violate some public or private parking regulations. Generally, fines range from tens to hundreds of yuan. Such tickets can also be begged. If you successfully plead, you can get all the fines back. But unfortunately, many people pay fines because they are afraid of trouble, or the police have no room for defense. In fact, if you are not satisfied, you can complain to the institution that issued the ticket, but if you fail to pay the fine on time, the municipal government can hand it over to the debt collection company for debt collection, and they have the right to ask the vehicle management office to revoke your driver's license until you pay the fine. If necessary, you can also contact me, and I will tell you the correct handling method.
