State of Tennessee:
- The State of Tennessee does not require you to take any special driver education courses in order to obtain your driver license.
- Because you aren't required to take any driver education courses doesn't mean you aren't responsible for being as informed as possible when it comes to taking to the road. The time during which you have your learner permit is an excellent time to start educating yourself, even if you're already enrolled in a driver education course.
Suggestions to get started:
- Once you have your learner permit, you can begin to practice driving, as long as you are accompanied by a licensed driver who is 21 or older, and you drive during the hours allowed.
- We pick up current copies of the Tennessee Driver Handbook to study (as well as a plethora of other informational manuals and pamphlets) at our local driver license station, or we download copies in PDF format.
- Remember, before you can even apply for your intermediate restricted license, you must have a valid learner's permit. If you are younger than 18, you must hold your learner's permit for a total of 6 months along with all other state requirements.
