Driver&#8217;s License<br>\r\n<\/h2>\r\n<p>Before you can drive, you will need a&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.findlaw.com\/traffic\/drivers-license-vehicle-info\/drivers-license-laws.html\">driver&#8217;s license<\/a>&nbsp;identification card (ID). Your ID card will contain information like your date of birth, address, and photograph. It will also feature a unique driver&#8217;s license number. Your license information can help verify your identity at a traffic stop or in official paperwork.<\/p>\r\n<p>To get a license, you must meet the requirements in your state, which may include:<\/p>\r\n<ul>\r\n<li>Your age<\/li>\r\n<li>A driving test behind the wheel<\/li>\r\n<li>A written traffic safety exam or a driver&#8217;s education program<\/li>\r\n<li>Documents to prove your residency and identity<\/li>\r\n<li>A social security number<\/li>\r\n<li>A completed application form<\/li>\r\n<li>Payment of a license fee<\/li>\r\n<\/ul>\r\n<p>The specific requirements depend on local laws, so check with your&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.findlaw.com\/traffic\/drivers-license-vehicle-info\/state-dmv-offices.html\">local driving-related agency<\/a>&nbsp;before you apply for a license or schedule a road test. In most states, this agency is the Department of Motor Vehicles (DMV) or Department of Transportation.<\/p>\r\n<p>Some states allow you to begin the application process online and then finish the process in person at a service center. Other states require you to apply in person at a DMV office location.<\/p>\r\n<h3>Types of Driver&#8217;s Licenses<\/h3>\r\n<p>There are different categories of driver&#8217;s licenses, such as:<\/p>\r\n<ul>\r\n<li>A provisional license, which is also known as a learner&#8217;s permit because it allows new drivers to practice on the road<\/li>\r\n<li>Standard driver&#8217;s licenses<\/li>\r\n<li>Commercial driver&#8217;s licenses (CDLs) for large trucks and semis<\/li>\r\n<li>Licenses for recreational vehicles like boats and all-terrain vehicles (ATVs)<\/li>\r\n<li>Restricted licenses, which limit driving privileges based on specific circumstances like a medical condition or transportation to work<\/li>\r\n<\/ul>\r\n<p>Each type of driver&#8217;s license has a unique set of application requirements. The rules for using and keeping your license can also depend on the type of license you get.<\/p>\r\n<h2>Losing Your Driver&#8217;s License<\/h2>\r\n<p>Driving is a privilege, not a right. Because driving is inherently dangerous, states hold a lot of control over who can and can&#8217;t have this privilege. Revocation, cancellation, or suspension of a license are ways a driver can lose their driving privileges.<\/p>\r\n<p>The government may&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.findlaw.com\/traffic\/drivers-license-vehicle-info\/what-conduct-could-lead-to-drivers-license-revocation.html\">revoke your license<\/a>&nbsp;for various reasons, such as:<\/p>\r\n<ul>\r\n<li>Breaking the speed limit<\/li>\r\n<li>Driving without insurance<\/li>\r\n<li>Driving while under the influence of alcohol or drugs (DUI\/DWI)<\/li>\r\n<li>Failing to pay a fine, answer a summons, or file an accident report when required<\/li>\r\n<\/ul>\r\n<p>All states also have implied consent laws, which means that motorists agree to take a breath test or another type of alcohol test if a law enforcement officer decides to require one. Refusing the officer&#8217;s request can result in an automatic license suspension. This suspension can happen even if the rest of your driver history is positive.<\/p>\r\n<p>Many states use a point system. Traffic violations carry different point values. The state adds these points to a person&#8217;s driving record after they break the law. Accruing too many points on a driver&#8217;s record in a given period may result in the suspension or revocation of a license. Typically, this means the person can&#8217;t drive and must wait for a set time before they can apply for a&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.findlaw.com\/dui\/laws-resources\/suspended-license-reinstatement-by-state.html\">license reinstatement<\/a>.<\/p>\r\n<p>Certain criminal convictions like DUI\/DWI offenses can lead to a license suspension in some states. Some states will suspend or revoke a license if the driver owes unpaid child support.<\/p>\r\n<h2>How Vehicle Registration Works<\/h2>\r\n<p>Vehicle registration is a process that allows the government to track whether a vehicle is compliant with local laws and allowed on the road. Before you can drive a car that you own, you must register it with your state.<\/p>\r\n<p>You can&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.findlaw.com\/traffic\/drivers-license-vehicle-info\/state-vehicle-registration-information.html\">complete registration<\/a>&nbsp;with your local DMV. You will need an auto insurance policy that meets your state&#8217;s&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.findlaw.com\/traffic\/drivers-license-vehicle-info\/state-car-insurance-information.html\">minimum coverage amount<\/a>&nbsp;to do so.<\/p>\r\n<p>Once you register your vehicle, you will get a unique license plate.&nbsp;You&nbsp;may&nbsp;also receive tabs, which are stickers that prove that your vehicle&#8217;s registration is up to date. You&#8217;ll attach these stickers to your license plate if your state requires it.<\/p>\r\n<p>Vehicle owners must renew their registration before it expires. Renewal typically involves paying a fee and replacing the old stickers with new ones, if applicable.<\/p>\r\n<h2>Following Vehicle Rules of the Road<\/h2>\r\n<p>Your vehicle must also fit safety and legal requirements before you can drive it on public roads. State traffic laws describe&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.findlaw.com\/traffic\/drivers-license-vehicle-info\/vehicle-rules.html\">vehicle safety standards<\/a>&nbsp;and illegal features.<\/p>\r\n<p>Whenever you plan to drive, check that your vehicle follows the rules involving:<\/p>\r\n<ul>\r\n<li>Safety features like turn signals, headlights, seatbelts and brakes<\/li>\r\n<li>Visibility of your license plate<\/li>\r\n<li>Illegal vehicle modifications like tinted windows and light bars<\/li>\r\n<li>Illegal decorations or personal items that block visibility<\/li>\r\n<li>Emissions and environmental standards<\/li>\r\n<\/ul>\r\n<p>It is important to check the law before buying or modifying a vehicle. You could face fines and tickets if you fail to follow local vehicle laws. You may also raise your risk of a dangerous collision.<\/p>\r\n<div class=\"was-this-helpful\">\n    <div\n            class=\"was-this-helpful__question-container\"\n
