Starting this month, 16- and 17-year-olds in Connecticut who are seeking a driver’s license will need to pass two written tests.
The legislature is requiring the Department of Motor Vehicles (DMV) to administer the 25-question test once a young driver has completed training and has passed the DMV road skills test. Drivers must still pass a written test to obtain a learner’s permit as well.
In addition to the new test, the DMV will also add 170 new questions to its bank used for selecting test questions at random. The questions cover state laws regarding the operation of a motor vehicle and driver responsibilities explained in the Connecticut driver’s manual. The testing requirement is part of recent crackdown on teen driving in Conn.
