Requirement snapshot
Official-source summary
FLHSMV lists the minimum age, parental consent, driver education traffic safety completion, vision and hearing testing, Class E Knowledge Exam, 50-question format, 40-of-50 passing score, and required identity/Social Security/residential address documents. FLHSMV fee pages list the original Class E fee.
State-specific study notes
Florida learners should prepare for both the Class E Knowledge Exam and the service-center requirements. The exam covers traffic laws, safe driving practices, and traffic controls. The DMV visit side includes proof documents, course completion, parental consent for minors, and the required vision and hearing checks.
A Florida study session should include traffic signs, right-of-way, lane control, impaired-driving rules, school zones, and safe following distance. Because the official exam is 50 multiple-choice questions, use shorter practice rounds first, then move to longer sessions where you can consistently score at or above 80%.
DMV visit checklist
Bring documents proving identity, Social Security number, and Florida residential address. If under 18, prepare the required parental consent. First-time drivers must also complete the required driver education traffic safety course.

Vision and hearing tests are required for a learner license.. Many DMV offices also take your photo during the permit visit.
A failed mandatory retest after a third-party exam can require a re-exam fee. Confirm current testing and retake rules with FLHSMV or your service center.
