If you are age 18 or older, before you can get a Michigan driver license you must:

• Present proof of identity
• Pass a vision test and meet health standards set by the Secretary of State's office
• Pass a knowledge test
• Pay the appropriate license fee
• Complete a minimum 30 days of practice driving on a temporary instruction permit
• Pass a road skills test

If you meet the above requirements, you will be issued a driver license after paying the appropriate fees. In some instances, because of medical conditions or other reasons, restrictions may be placed on your driver license. Should any special licensing conditions be required, these conditions or restrictions will be printed on the driver license. Drivers licensed for the first time will be placed on probation for a minimum of three years.
