With the passage of House Bill 15, which allows 15-year-olds to earn their driver’s permits, the Kentucky Transportation Cabinet is working to implement this change.
The cabinet is making system upgrades so a credential can be issued allowing eligible applicants to take the written permit test, according to a cabinet press release.
Applicants can start making an appointment with the Kentucky State Police for as early as April 2.
“For individuals who have made an appointment prior to that date, please reschedule with Kentucky State Police to prevent delays,” the release states.
As a reminder, the cabinet states, the new law only allows more time for eligible drivers to hold a permit. State law still requires you to be 16 to obtain an intermediate license.
