Any state that you are a resident of will require you to have a license which permits you to drive. Failure to obtain this license will land you in a lot of trouble with law enforcement and other governmental agencies should you be found driving without one. Thus, to avoid the hassle of justifying yourself in the discomfort of a police station, it’s important for those in California to obtain their licenses before driving. However, if you, like many others, are confused when it comes to the legal application procedure for acquiring a driver’s license within the state, we’ve put together the basics to help.
A person who has any sort of past discrepancies, i.e. revocations, suspensions, cancellations, or any type of involvement in a legal conflict may be ineligible to obtain a valid driver’s license in the state of California. If you have had a driver’s license under your name prior to this one, you can check your driving record to ensure that you have no felonies or tickets issued under your name that may cause complications or make you ineligible to apply.
