One privilege that many teens look forward to is the
ability to earn a driver's license. Driver's licensing
requirements are not the same in every state. In some
states, young people can be fully licensed before their
sixteenth birthday. In other states, the privilege to drive
has some restrictions until the driver is eighteen years
old. In every state, driver education is a required step

provisional license, and spend six months to a year
driving with an adult in the car. Since states are very
