Im 15 years old, i live in florida, and i have had my learners permit for almost a year,but i just can't wait any longer, is there a way that i can get a license or conditional license or something that would allow me to drive by myself such as in north carolina?

Thanks

Garrett

 

Patience fellow young grasshopper, patience. You can wait like the rest of us.

At least you can get it at 16. I have to wait another 6 months after I turn 16.

 

If you have your permit then shouldn't you already know the answer to that question?

Consider yourself lucky, in Ky you can't even get a permit until your 16.

 

More and more I believe both the driving age and voting age should be raised to 25.

 

As much as I hate to say it, I'm with ya.

 

and I'll add, though it is distasteful- a person should have to pass a test, demonstrating constitutional understanding and current events before being allowed to vote.. I become sick every time I look or listen to a career politician who gained office by using a 'catch phrase' aimed at ignorant and easily duped people..

And, just to demonstrate how cantankerous I can be- I also hold firmly to a road test every decade for all drivers, advancing to bi-annual road tests at age 74, and ultimately to annual road tests by 80 for all license holders- and I think that actually may be too lenient to be honest..

 

Then there would be about 2,000 voters left...

At the very least, I agree.

 

but think about how the game of politicin' would change.. no longer would catchy buzz phrases or assaults on the integrity of a politicians opponent be useful anymore..

the politician would actually have to explain in detail to potential voters their plan and their vision- and not something that gives you a warm fuzzy like an item in the grocery store check-out line, that you just gotta have..

 

could care less about the voting but i think the age for getting your license is fine. the only thing i think needs to happen is the kids need to taught how to drive properly by there parents or at some driving school.

 

98% of the drivers out there shouldn't even be behind the wheel as it stands, so your idea about being taught how to drive "by their parents" is mute. A learner's permit until age 25 would be fine.
