Written test can be taken at age 15½ in many states (be sure to check with your local motor vehicle department) and upon passing will be awarded a "learner's permit" which means that a licenses driver age 21 or more must be in the passenger front seat at all times while you are driving. You must complete a certain criteria of both day and night driving and be sure to practice parallel parking and backing up.

After you satisfy the learner's permit requirements you may be eligible to get your permanent license. In order to do that you will have to take a driving test with a motor vehicle department examiner. You will be given instructions by the examiner that you must obey (they will not ask you do do anything illegal) and that may include making turns, stopping at stop signs (be sure to make a full and complete stop or you might fail the test right then and there). The driving test may include parallel parking (which you have done earlier) and backing up.

Upon successful passing of the driving test you will be issued a permanent driver's license. Always remember to drive carefully as the life you save might be your own. And ... driving is a privilege ... it is not a right. You license can be revoked if you violate the laws of the road and if serious enough you may not get that license back for several years. Respect that privilege.
