Des Plaines Illinois Online Driver Education and Des Plaines Illinois Licensing Procedures

So you've taken your first step towards becoming a new driver in Des Plaines Illinois?  Congratulations! 

As you probably already know, driving is a valuable skill, but can also be extremely dangerous.  Therefore, to help new teen drivers develop safe driving habits during their first few years behind the wheel, the State of Des Plaines Illinois has implemented a graduated driver license program for Des Plaines Illinois drivers who are under the age of 18.

We’ve summarized a few things you’ll need to know as you begin the process of becoming a licensed driver in Des Plaines Illinois.

Drivers under 18--Go To School!  Poor school attendance may result in you not having driving privileges.

Des Plaines Illinois Instruction Permit (aka-- Learner Permit)

To apply for an Des Plaines Illinois instruction permit, you need to meet the following prerequisites:

  • Be at least 15 years old
  • Be currently enrolled in a state-approved drivers education course
  • Have studied the Des Plaines Illinois driver handbook so you'll be ready to take your written test

When you're ready to take your test, remember to take the required forms of ID with you to the driver's license office (a complete list of acceptable documents can be located at the Des Plaines Illinois DMV website) along with $20 to cover the processing fee.

After you receive your Des Plaines Illinois instruction permit (valid for 2 years), you may begin driving, however a licensed driver who's at least 21 years old must be sitting next to you in the front passenger seat whenever you drive.

Your First Des Plaines Illinois Driver's License or Des Plaines Illinois Provisional License

After you have had your instruction permit for nine (9) months, you may become eligible to apply for your Des Plaines Illinois provisional drivers license provided you meet the following prerequisites:

  • Have had your instructional permit in good standing for at least nine (9) months
  • Completed the required state-approved drivers education program
  • Maintained eight (8) passing grades in the two most recent semesters in school
  • Written certification from your parent/guardian that you have completed at least 50 hours of driving practice (including at least 10 at night)

When you're ready to take the written test plus the road test, then head back down to the driver license office with your instruction permit plus the same ID documents you took when you went to get your instruction permit.

After you get your provisional license, there are still some restrictions which apply to you:

  • All passengers (including the driver) must be wearing seat belts
  • No driving between 10pm and 6am (Sunday--Thursday) or from 11pm to 6am (Friday--Saturday) unless your parent/guardian is in the car with you

If you are caught driving during these blackout hours, your Des Plaines Illinois driver license may be suspended.

After you turn 17, you will earn your full Des Plaines Illinois driver's license (provided you have committed no traffic violations during the time you've held your provisional license).

Des Plaines Illinois Mandatory Auto Insurance/Liability Coverage Laws

The State of Des Plaines Illinois requires that you maintain a certain amount of liability coverage on any vehicle you drive.  The minimum required coverage is as follows:

  • $20,000--personal injury (1 person)
  • $40,000--personal injury (2 or more persons)
  • $15,000--property damage

Driving while uninsured is a crime in Des Plaines Illinois!  If you drive without the required insurance coverage, you will face having your license suspended, plus a hefty fine.
