For a learner license to be valid, what must the holder have?

For a learner license to be valid, the holder must have completed an approved driver education course. This educational requirement ensures that the learner has acquired foundational knowledge about traffic laws, safe driving practices, and vehicle operation before they begin practical driving. Completing an approved driver education course typically covers essential topics such as understanding traffic signs, the rules of the road, and safe driving techniques, which are vital for any new driver. This foundational education aims to promote safety and responsible driving habits from the outset.

On the other hand, while passing a vision test is often a requirement for obtaining a learner's permit, it alone does not encompass the broader necessary education about driving. Likewise, enrolling in a professional driving school can be beneficial but is not universally required for the learner license to be valid and is not a substitute for the education that a driver education course provides. Completing the driving test is generally associated with obtaining a full driver's license rather than just a learner license.
