Answer

In California, if you get your Driving Permit after the age of 17 1/2, you only have to wait until your 18th birthday to get your regular, adult, non-restricted driver license.

Not Necessarily. First of all, dont worry because as long as you had insurance (if it was your fault) an accident usually makes no difference as far as delay of your license issuance, at least in Nevada it dosen't.

In most states, if you turn 18 three months after your first permit as long as you pass the driving test you'll be issued a full unrestricted license as Graduated Licensing Programs (GDLPs) are for juveniles and rarely ever apply to adults.

Take my suggestion, go ahead and GET LICENSED AS SOON AS YOU CAN!! 20 years from now I guarentee it will be quite literally impossible and remember no Auto dealers in the USA will sell you a car without it!! Good Luck, Matt

Answer

You need to call the local DMV to answer that question due to laws vary state by state . N.C. laws let you get your license at 16 if (if) you have had a learners permit without any accidents , and you are still a full time student , one full 12 month year after you get your permit . A friend of mine has a wife 36 years old that just got her license after a 3 month permit , but it varies state to state . The local dmv will be more than happy (sometimes) to answer your question .
