Can you take driving lessons without a provisional license?
I’m still waiting on my provisional license, but I really want to start driving. I’m not sure if I have to wait for it to come in or not. Can I sign up for driving lessons without a provisional license?

With driving comes a lot of independence, so it’s understandable to be eager to get behind the wheel. That being said, you may want to hold off on filling out applications for driving lessons for a few reasons:
- Your provisional license is what allows you to be on the road in the first place. Driving without it puts you at risk of getting acitation.
- Driving schools have to protect themselves from potential lawsuits by following the law to the letter. You’re unlikely to get accepted into any program without your provisional license.
- You can’t practice driving on your own without your provisional license either, so you won’t be able to work on your driving skills between lessons.
While it’s certainly not fun having to wait for your provisional license to come in, you can do it! In the meantime, use the wait as an opportunity to start looking at
