Whether you are brand new behind the wheel or need a refresher before your test, we will help you earn your Washington license. To take a drive lesson you will need a valid WA State instruction permit, a driver’s license or permit from Washington, a permit from another state or country, or an international driver’s license. See lesson options and current pricing on our Services page.
Start by pre-applying for your permit through the Washington State Department of Licensing.
Step 2: Pass the knowledge exam
Take the written knowledge exam. It is offered in seven languages, and picture-based testing is available for those who do not speak fluent English.
Step 3: Get your permit
Visit your local WA DOL office with your Social Security number and proof of Washington residency. You will take a vision test, have your photo taken, and pay the fee.
Step 4: Take driving lessons
Practice with our certified instructors. Book a single one-hour lesson or save with a lesson package. See current pricing on our Services page.
Step 5: Pass the driving skills exam
Take your skills test with one of our WA State Certified Examiners. Test in your own vehicle or use one of ours for an additional fee.
Step 6: Get your license
Once you have passed, get your license online through License eXpress or at your nearest WA DOL office.
