When can a student get a
temporary permit?
Students may obtain a
temporary permit when they turn
15
1/2. It is not
necessary to take the class before getting the temporary
permit. Students should practice driving with parents or
guardians as much as possible after getting their
temporary permit.
How do high school students
get their permit?
Students may obtain
their permit before taking the KDS class by doing the
following:
- Study the Digest of Motor
Vehicle Laws.
- Go to the Bureau of Motor
Vehicles with social security card, birth
certificazte, parent/guardian, and take the written
test.
- Upon passing the test go to
the Bureau of Motor Vehicles and purchase your permit.
(approx. $22.00)
How are students scheduled
for driving?
Students phone in their
temporary permit number and validation date to the
Napoleon office after at
least two hours of
classroom work has been completed. The Manager will call
the student's home to make three appointments for the
student's driving instruction. However, students cannot
drive and attend class the same day. Students may also
inform the instructor the first day of class to put their
name on the driving list to get scheduled to
drive.
What if students lose their
permits?
If students lose their
permit
they must
repurchase the packet. Students may not have to
retest. The 6 month waiting period is not
affected. Effective
November 3, 2008, the
BMV began issuing new DL's and ID's. There is no longer a
"table of contents" on the back of the DL or ID with the
entire list of driving restrictions; if the holder of the
license or temporary permit has a restriction that will
be the only thing on the back of the card. There is a
slight rearrangement of the information on the front. The
permit will be the ID card.
How long are the driving
sessions?
Students must have a
total of 8 hours of instruction behind the wheel (state
regulation). Each session generally lasts 2 to 3 hours.
Students need their permits and identification cards to
drive.
Is
a pickup service
available?
KDS has a pickup service
for driving instruction sessions. The service is free to
students who live within the KDS service area.
What is done to insure safety
in the car?
The instructors are well
trained and experienced. The cars are well maintained.
The cars are equipped with cellular phones, flares, first
aid kits, and fire extinguishers. Medical information
forms about students are also in the car.

How do high school students
obtain their drivers
license?
Students
are required to hold
their temporary permit for six months. Students must
carry their
Permit
in order to
drive.
They can then call the
examination station after
receiving a Certificate of Completion from Key Driving
School. Their parent/guardian must submit a notarized
form at the examination
station stating the student
driver has driven at least 50 hours, 10 of which were
driven at night. Take the certificate of completion of
driver ed, the temporary permit, and social security card
to the test site.
How can students practice for
the maneuverability
test
Students are welcome to
practice with their parents/guardians at the Napoleon
office. Cones are available behind the Napoleon office in
the "canal turn around basin". This area houses the
county recycling collection site.
