How much will an agent charge for a driving license?

How much do you have to pay to get a driver’s license in California? I don’t have a license because I’ve always lived in big cities with lots of public transport, but I recently moved to Cali and I want to start driving.

Congratulations on your big move! In
California
, the DMV agent should charge you $85.00 for your driver’s license. However, it’s also a good idea to take a driving class before you take the tests for your license.
Classroom training can cost anywhere from $30 to $180, and road training will cost you $50 to $150 per session. If you’d rather, you can also look for a school that offers a bundle package. This will typically cost $200 to $800, depending on the location you choose.
You’ll also need to get a car insurance policy in order to drive. The
