You have to be able to drive very well in Vermont. You only have to be fifteen to get your permit, which is good, but you have to have it for at least a year before you take the drivers test. Driver's Ed. isn't optional; you have to take it before the road test. You also have to fill out a bunch of paperwork. But, once you have your license, the only restrictions are on how many people you can drive around during the first six months; you're aloud to drive whenever you want.
