Of course, being able to drive a vehicle is very useful. And when you've spent virtually your entire childhood with a bicycle, it's only logical that you'd want to drive a moped, motorcycle, or even a car in your teens. However, it is no longer possible to drive these types of vehicles without a license. Therefore, the younger generation should first ask themselves at what age they can take their driver's license, and only then go to the garage.
At what age can I drive a car?
Ukrainian driving schools welcome teenagers from the age of 16 to take driving lessons. This way, they can learn how to get along with and drive a car from professionals.
And this learning relationship with the car will last until they are 18 years old. After all, only at this age is it allowed to pass the category B license, which will allow you to drive cars.
However, age is not the only condition for obtaining a license. Physical and mental health are also important. So, without a doctor's report, you will not be able to start the process of studying and passing exams.
As for training in other types of transport, the following rules apply:
-
14 years - training for categories A, A1;
-
16 years - training for categories B, C1, C, B1;
-
17 years - training for categories D1, D, C1E, CE, DE and T.
So there is more than enough time to prepare and pass all the exams.
At what age can I take my driver's license?
If you look at the legislation, you can clearly see the age restrictions. Accordingly, you should only apply for a license to drive a particular vehicle, i.e., obtain a category of license, at a certain age.
-
16 years old. A teenager can safely obtain categories A, A1. So, if you want to ride mopeds, passenger motorcycles or motor scooters, it's time to start learning.
-
18 years old. At this age, you can already get more freedom. After all, you have the right to learn to drive a category B, B1 and get behind the wheel of a car. More precisely, a vehicle weighing up to 3500 kilograms and with a maximum of 8 seats.
-
19 years old. Those who have reached this age will be able to open the category BE, which gives the right to drive a car with a trailer weighing up to 750 kg.
-
21 years old. It is from this age that the right to study for more serious categories appears. We are talking about buses and obtaining category D. And, of course, it is at this age that you have the opportunity to master the skills of driving trucks and trucks. After all, at the age of 21, you have the right to get category C.
So, in fact, at the age of 21, you can already open all the main categories, and in the future, only improve your skills.
