NV Driving Test Information

If you’re preparing for your driving skills test, this section will help you prepare.

Eligibility & Permit Requirements

  • Minimum age for Learner (Instruction) Permit: 15½ years old.

  • Proof required: Identity, Social Security Number, Nevada residential address. If you’re under 18, a parent or legal guardian will need to sign a financial responsibility statement. You may also need proof of school attendance.

  • Vision & Written Tests: You are required to pass both a vision and a written (knowledge) test.

Driver Education & Practice Hours

  • Under 18: most beginners will need to complete a driver education course (online or classroom).

  • Behind-the-wheel (supervised driving practice): you will need at least 50 hours of supervised driving, 10 of which must be logged at night.

  • Note: If there are no driver educational resources within 30 miles (and online isn’t an option), an alternative requirement of 100 hours of supervised driving experience is possible.

Holding a Period & Clean Driving Record

If you’re under 18 you must hold your instruction permit for a minimum of six months before taking the driving skills test.

When applying for your full (minor) license, you must have maintained a clean driving record during the permit period: with no at-fault crashes, no moving violations, and no alcohol or drug convictions for the previous six months.

Skills Test & Vehicle Requirements

On the day of your test, bring:

  1. Your instruction permit

  2. Proof of identity and residency

  3. Driver education certificate (if required)

  4. The log of the required behind-the-wheel practice (either via the RoadReady app or the official log form DLD-130).

Your vehicle must be registered, insured, and meet all outlined safety requirements. Your examiner will perform a safety inspection before the skills test.

Restrictions & Graduated Licensing for Teens

  • Passenger restrictions: For the first 6 months after obtaining a minor license, teen drivers may not transport passengers under 18, except for immediate family members.

  • Night-driving curfew: Teen drivers under 18 may not drive between 10:00 p.m. and 5:00 a.m., unless it’s for school, work, or a scheduled event.
