I thought everyone needed to

If you were 18 and over you simply had to pass the test. Driver's education is ridiculously expensive ($400+). So, a lot of new drivers choose to wait until they are 18 to save money. Unfortunately, this is just another law to punish poor people. In my opinion, it really isn't going to make drivers any better. Most of the drivers on the roads know the laws, they just ignore them.

I see. Yeah I've had my license since I was like 16 or 17 so that's just how I thought it was.

I never took a class. I only read the book and took the tests. Although, this was in California
