How It Works !
 

DRIVER EDUCATION REQUIREMENT
If you are applying for a driver license before your 18th birthday, you must obtain either commercial or high school driver education consisting of 24 hours classroom
instruction and eight hours of driving. These 24 hours of classroom work DO NOT have to be completed in consecutive order! The student is free to come and go as he/she pleases and does not have to stay for the entire 4-hour duration for each class. He/she is free to leave after the first two hours are complete, or come for the last two hours if needed. You must also provide a notarized affidavit signed by a parent or
guardian verifying your completion of 50 hours of driving experience before taking the skills test. At least 10 of these hours must be night driving. A driver education certificate must be presented
when taking the skills test. To find the current list  of driver training schools look on the web page at www.drivertraining.ohio.gov and click on "Approved Schools." To schedule a road test, visit www.ohiodrivingtest.com
