GETTING STARTED

Who can supervise me while I practice?

Curiosity → Eligibility → Learner License

QUICK ANSWER

Florida learner-license rules require a licensed driver who is at least 21 years old and occupies the closest seat to the learner’s right.

WHAT THAT MEANS

The supervising driver provides both legal supervision and safety support while the learner builds independence.
