How old do you have to be to get a driver's permit in New jersey?

Answer 1

Age requirement for permit in NJThe best answer I can give is: go to the NJ dept of motor vehicles and get the book they want you to read before taking your written test. The current answer is there. When I got my permit in NJ, the age was 17. That was many years ago and could have changed by now.

Answer 2

The term "driver's permit" is a bit ambiguous, because it is not clear if the question is about a driver's license or learner's permit. So here is an answer to both. The usual learner's permit can be gotten at age 16. A limited driver's license can be gotten at age 17. This has conditions such as not being out after midnight and not having a certain number of non-related passengers in the car at any one time. The unconditional driver's license can be gotten at 18.

Answer 3

The legal age for unrestricted driving is 18, but at this age there is a 3 year probationary period...at 21 you have to get ANOTHER license saying ur a mature adult and that you have stayed clean for 3 years..... At 17 you can get your provisional drivers' license, that is, the licens where you can drive by yourself, but are limited to certain hours and certain amount of people At 16 you can get your learner's permit, that is, you need an adult who is 21 and older and has had license for more than 3 years...... If you're 15, I suggest you get a moped license, you can drive one of those at that age.

Answer 4

In the state of New Jersey, you must be at least 17 years old before you will be given a probationary driver's license. Once you turn 18, you can then have a unrestricted driverÕs license.

It depends how old you are. If you are getting your permit at sixteen to twenty one, then you must have your permit for six months. If older, then you must have your permit for three months.
