Tennessee teens can now take a portion of their driver’s license test at home. The Tennessee Department of Safety and Homeland Security launched a new online service, “At-Home Knowledge Testing,” on Monday.
Teens between 15 years old and 17 years old who want a driver’s license are able to take the test online under the supervision of a parent or legal guardian.
The test can be attempted twice online. If the test taker fails both attempts he or she will have to go to a Driver Services Center for future testing.
After 6 months with a learner’s permit, an in-person road test is still required to obtain a driver’s license along with a minimum of 50 hours of drive time with a licensed adult.
More information about the diver’s test can be found on Tennessee’s website.
