I want to take my driving test and get my license as soon as possible. I’m well aware that you need to take driving lessons beforehand. Exactly how many lessons on average do I need to pass a driving test?

In nearly every state, you’re required to have at least six one-hour lessons with a licensed instructor. In addition to this requirement, many states also require at least 30 hours of classroom instruction.
You will also need to complete a certain number of driving hours with a licensed family member or friend. This isn’t a legal requirement. However, the more time you spend with a licensed driver, the more comfortable you’ll feel behind the wheel. Check with your DMV for specific requirements in your state.
Since you’re a first-time driver, you’ll need car insurance after you pass your driving test. If you’re not sure where to find the most affordable policies, start with the
