Louisiana Online Driver Education and Louisiana Licensing Procedures

Congratulations on starting the process of applying for your Louisiana learner's permit or first Louisiana driver license. Louisiana has a Graduated Driver License Program for Louisiana teen drivers, and there are a few things to keep in mind to make sure that applying for your Louisiana driving license goes as smoothly as possible. So let's get started.

Louisiana Instructional Permit or Louisiana Learner Permit

When you're 15-16, you can apply for a  Class E Louisiana Learner's Permit. You'll need to make an appointment at your local Louisiana Office of Motor Vehicles (OMV) and bring the following:

At your local Louisiana OMV, you'll take these materials and then have to pass a Louisiana written exam, a vision screening, and a traffic signs test. If you survived, then congratulations! You just earned your Louisiana learner's permit. Remember that with your Louisiana learner's permit, you can only practice driving with another licensed driver over 21 or a licensed sibling who is at least 18. After you've had your Louisiana learner permit for 180 days, you'll be ready to apply for your Louisiana intermediate driver's license.

Your Louisiana Intermediate Driver's License

In order to apply for your Louisiana intermediate driver's license, you'll need to make sure you follow a few Louisiana State requirements before heading down to your local Louisiana OMV.

  • Have your Louisiana learner's permit in good standing for 180 days
  • Bring the proper identification
  • Don't forget proof of insurance for your vehicle
  • Remember that your vehicle inspection sticker, license plates, and registration need to be up-to-date
  • The road test fee (which varies depending on your local OMV)

If you pass the dreaded road exam, then congratulations again. You've just earned your Louisiana intermediate driver license! However, you'll still have to drive with a few restrictions until you've held your Louisiana intermediate driver's license for another 180 days in good standing.

Once you turn 17, you can return to your local Louisiana OMV, bringing all of your documentation, and apply for your Louisiana full license!

Louisiana Teen Driver License Restrictions and Penalties

There are also several restrictions you need to keep in mind regarding your Louisiana learner's permit:

  • You can drive only with a licensed parent/guardian or adult over 21
  • You are also allowed to drive with a licensed sibling over 18
  • You can only take family members in your car unless your passenger is a driver education teacher

There are also several restrictions you need to keep in mind regarding your Louisiana intermediate driver's license:

  • You can't drive from 11PM to 5AM unless accompanied by a licensed driver over 21 (until 17) or a licensed sibling 18 or older

If you've driven without incident for 180 days, then congratulations. You can now apply for your Indiana full license.

Louisiana Auto Insurance Louisiana Financial Responsibility Laws

Once you receive your Louisiana drivers license, you're ready to drive--or are you? Any vehicle registered in Louisiana must be covered by liability insurance. The minimum coverage is:

  • $10,000 per person for bodily injury
  • $20,000 per accident for bodily injury
  • $10,000 for property damage

If you are found to be driving without Louisiana mandatory liability insurance, your Louisiana learner's permit or Louisiana restricted driver license could be suspended and you could be fined.

Louisiana Drunk Driving, Cell Phone, and Text Messaging Laws

As a new Louisiana driver, it's important for you to learn the Louisiana drunk driving, cell phone, and text messaging laws. First of all, Louisiana has a zero tolerance law, so if you're under 21 and caught with a Blood Alcohol Content of .02, you'll face stiff fines as well as Louisiana driver's license suspension.

Upon your first conviction of a Louisiana DUI (0.08), you'll face the following penalties:

  • Jail sentence of up to 6 months
  • $1000
  • license suspension of 6 months (if under 21)

And of course, further Louisiana DUI convictions will result in increased jail time, community service, fines, and Louisiana license suspension or even Louisiana license revocation.

Currently, Louisiana prohibits teen drivers who hold a Class E Louisiana learner's license from using cell phones while driving unless the device is a hands-free device. The fine is $175 for a first offense and $500 for subsequent offenses.
