Kansas 50 Hour Supervised Driving Affidavit: Checklist

Photo: >Author Nils Huenerfuerst, CC BY 4.0, via Wikimedia Commons

Kansas doesn’t ask you to hand in a driving log. Instead, a parent or guardian signs an affidavit stating that you completed at least 50 hours of supervised driving, including 10 hours at night. This checklist covers who needs the affidavit and when, who can supervise, and what happens if it is missing.

Key facts

Hours: at least 50 in total, of which at least 10 at night.
Supervisor: an adult aged 21 or older with a valid class A, B, C or commercial license.
Signed by: a parent or guardian.
Log: KDOR does not require one, but encourages parents to keep one. The office keeps the affidavit.
Legal basis: K.S.A. 8-2,101 (restricted license), 8-296 (farm permit) and 8-235d (first license at 17).

When is the Kansas 50-hour affidavit due?

Your route	What you file and when
Restricted license at 15	25 hours before the license. Before you turn 16, an affidavit covering those 25 plus 25 more (50 in total, including 10 at night).
Restricted license at 16	50 hours (10 at night), filed with the application
Farm permit	50 hours (10 at night), filed before you turn 16
First license at 17 (under 18)	50 hours (10 at night), filed with the application

What if you don’t file it?

If you hold a restricted license from 15, or a farm permit, and don’t provide the affidavit, you stay on the under-16 restrictions until you file it or turn 17, whichever comes first. That means driving alone only for work, the school run and (on a restricted license) religious activities. Without the affidavit you can’t get a restricted license at 16, or a first license at 17. See Kansas restricted license rules.

Who can supervise your practice in Kansas?

Aged 21 or older
Holds a valid class A, B, C or commercial driver’s license
For permit driving, also has at least one year of driving experience and sits beside you in the front seat (K.S.A. 8-2,100)

The supervisor doesn’t have to be the parent who signs, but the parent or guardian is the one attesting to the hours.

Checklist: getting your 50 hours done

Track every session in a log, even though KDOR doesn’t ask to see it. Record the date, start and end times, day or night, the supervisor and the skills practiced.
Get 10 or more hours after dark, as the statute requires.
Cover the handbook’s “Basic Driving” and “Rules of the Road” skills: backing, intersections, signals, pavement markings and parking.
Include highway driving and bad weather once you are ready. See freeway driving for new drivers and driving in snow, fog and rain.
Use KDOR’s Parent’s Supervised Driving Program booklet as a lesson plan.
Take the signed affidavit with you when you apply.

A simple log layout

Date	Start to end	Hours	Night?	Supervisor	Skills practiced

A note for parents

The affidavit is a signed statement, so sign only for hours your teen actually drove. Kansas law also says that evidence that a teen failed to complete the 50 hours can’t be used in a lawsuit to decide comparative negligence or to reduce damages.

Common questions

Do I need a driving log in Kansas?

No. KDOR won’t ask for one, but it encourages parents to keep one.

How many night hours do you need in Kansas?

At least 10 of the 50.

Can a grandparent or older sibling supervise?

Yes, if they are 21 or older and hold a valid class A, B, C or commercial license. For permit driving, they also need one year of experience. A parent or guardian still signs the affidavit.

Do driver’s ed hours count toward the 50 in Kansas?

KDOR’s pages don’t say. Ask your driver education provider or KDOR.

Do adults need the 50-hour affidavit?

No. The statute applies it to applicants under 18.

Where do I get the affidavit form?

KDOR lists a Teen Driving Log Affidavit (DE-IB01) on its forms page. Check that it is the current form before you apply.

Kansas Farm Permit for Teen Drivers: Rules and Eligibility

Photo: >Author Quintin Soloviev, CC BY 4.0, via Wikimedia Commons

A Kansas farm permit lets a teen aged 14 to under 17 who lives on, or is paid to work on, a Kansas farm drive class C vehicles for farm work and school trips. It is set out in K.S.A. 8-296. This page covers who qualifies, what the permit allows at 14, 15 and 16, and the paperwork.

Key facts

Age: at least 14 and under 17. Some KDOR summaries describe it as 14 to 15, but the statute says under 17.
“Farm” means a parcel of land larger than 20 acres used for agricultural operations.
You must pass the license examination and provide a parent or guardian’s affidavit. If you work on the farm but don’t live there, your employer signs too.
Before you turn 16, a parent or guardian signs a 50-hour supervised driving affidavit (10 hours at night).
Fee: $20 for a farm permit issued to a person under 21 (K.S.A. 8-240, as of November 2026). KDOR may add a photo fee, so check the total.

Who qualifies for a Kansas farm permit?

To qualify you must:

Be 14, 15 or 16.
Live on a Kansas farm, or be employed for pay on one. The farm must be more than 20 acres and used in agricultural operations.
Prove that you live or work there.
Pass the license examination under K.S.A. 8-235d (vision, signs, traffic laws and a driving demonstration).
Submit a signed affidavit:
- if you live on the farm: from a parent or guardian
- if you only work there: from your employer and a parent or guardian, confirming the job

KDOR publishes a parental form for the farm permit (DE-98). Ask your driver’s license office which version to bring.

What a Kansas farm permit allows

	Age 14 and 15	Age 16 (first six months)
Farm work	Any time, to or from or in connection with farm work	Any time, to or from or in connection with farm work
School	On school days, by the most direct route between home and school	To or from authorized school activities
General driving	No	5 a.m. to 9 p.m.
Religious services	Not listed	Directly to or from worship services
With an adult	Passenger car, any time, with a licensed adult beside you	Passenger car, any time, with a licensed adult beside you
Passengers	No non-sibling minor passengers	No more than one passenger under 18 who isn’t immediate family

After those six months, if you have complied, the statute lets you drive without the farm permit restrictions. The adult beside you must hold a valid class A, B, C or commercial license.

Phone ban

A farm permit holder may not use a wireless communication device while driving. The only exceptions are reporting illegal activity or calling for medical or other emergency help.

The 50-hour affidavit for farm permit holders

Before you turn 16, a parent or guardian must sign an affidavit stating that you completed at least 50 hours of adult-supervised driving, including 10 at night. The supervising adult must be 21 or older and hold a valid class A, B, C or commercial license. If you don’t file it, you stay on the under-16 restrictions until you file it or turn 17, whichever comes first. See Kansas 50 hour supervised driving affidavit.

How you can lose a farm permit

Any violation of the permit’s restrictions leads to suspension.
Two or more crashes chargeable to you: suspension, with no reinstatement for one year.
Two or more moving violations on separate occasions before 16: you keep the under-16 restrictions until 17.
Two or more moving violations between 16 and 17: you keep the age-16 restrictions until 18.
Breaking a passenger rule counts as a moving traffic violation.

Farm permit or restricted license?

A restricted license at 15 needs approved driver education and a permit held for one year. A farm permit needs neither of these under the statute, but you must live or work on a qualifying farm. Compare both in Kansas restricted license rules at 15 and 16.

Common questions

How old do you have to be for a farm permit in Kansas?

At least 14 and under 17, under K.S.A. 8-296.

How many acres count as a farm in Kansas?

More than 20 acres, used in agricultural operations.

Can I get a farm permit if I work on a farm but live in town?

Yes, if you are paid to work there. Your employer and a parent or guardian both sign the affidavit.

Can I drive a farm truck on a Kansas farm permit?

Only if it falls within class C, as defined in K.S.A. 8-234b, and only for permitted trips. The farm permit does not cover class A or B vehicles. Check a specific truck with KDOR.

Can I drive friends to school on a farm permit at 15?

No. Under 16 you may not carry non-sibling minor passengers.

Do I still take a test for a farm permit?

Yes. You must complete the examination requirements in K.S.A. 8-235d. Ask KDOR whether a driver education certificate can stand in for any part.

Kansas Restricted License Rules at 15 and 16

Photo: >Author Ttfd238, Public domain, via Wikimedia Commons

A Kansas restricted license lets a teen drive alone, but only for certain trips, at certain hours and with limited passengers. You can get one at 15 or at 16 under K.S.A. 8-2,101, which is part of Kansas’s GDL law known as Cody’s Law. This page sets out exactly what each version allows, from the statute itself.

Key facts

At 15: approved driver education, a permit held for at least 1 year, 25 supervised hours and a parent’s written application.
At 16: a permit held for at least 1 year and a signed affidavit for 50 supervised hours, 10 of them at night.
Hours at 16 (for six months): 5 a.m. to 9 p.m., plus set trips at any time.
Passengers: none who are non-sibling minors at 15. From 16, for six months, no more than one passenger under 18 who is not immediate family.
No wireless device use while driving, except to report illegal activity or call for emergency help.

Who can get a Kansas restricted license?

Requirement	Restricted at 15	Restricted at 16
Age	15	16 (under 17)
Instruction permit held	At least 1 year	At least 1 year
Driver education	Approved course required	Not required by the statute
Supervised driving before the license	25 hours	50 hours, including 10 at night
Further affidavit	Before you turn 16: 25 more hours (50 in total, including 10 at night)	None
Parent or guardian	Written application required	Signs the 50-hour affidavit

A permit from another state or DC counts toward the 15-year-old route if it has equal or greater requirements. KDOR says time on a driver’s education permit does not count toward the one-year holding period.

What can you do on a restricted license at 15 in Kansas?

Until you turn 16, you may drive at any time only:

to or from, or as part of, a job, employment or farm-related work
on school days, by the most direct route between home and your school, to attend school
from 6 a.m. to 9 p.m., directly to or from a religious activity held by a religious organization
with a licensed adult (class A, B, C or commercial) sitting beside you

Passengers: no non-sibling minors at all. In practice, a friend from school can’t ride with you, but your younger brother can.

What can a 16-year-old do on a Kansas restricted license?

For six months, starting when you turn 16 (if you started at 15) or when your license is issued at 16, you may drive:

for any purpose from 5 a.m. to 9 p.m.
at any hour to or from, or as part of, work or farm-related work
to or from authorized school activities
directly to or from a religious activity
at any time with a licensed adult beside you

Passengers: no more than one passenger under 18 who isn’t a member of your immediate family.

Scenario: Friday night game

You are 16, three months into your restricted license, and the school game ends at 10 p.m. Driving home from an authorized school activity is allowed after 9 p.m. Taking two non-family friends home is not, because the limit is one passenger under 18 who isn’t family.

Phone rules on a Kansas restricted license

You may not operate a wireless communication device while driving. The only exceptions are reporting illegal activity or calling for medical or other emergency help (K.S.A. 8-2,101(e)). This is stricter than the texting ban for all Kansas drivers. The statute doesn’t say whether the phone ban ends with the six-month period, so check with KDOR. See also hands-free and texting laws for US drivers.

When do Kansas restrictions end?

Under the statute, the six-month period at 16 ends and you can drive without these restrictions, provided you complied with the rules. The schedule can slip:

Started at 15 and never filed the 50-hour affidavit: you stay on the age-15 restrictions until you file it or turn 17, whichever comes first.
Two or more moving violations on separate occasions before 16: you keep the age-15 restrictions until 17.
Two or more moving violations between 16 and 17: you keep restrictions until 18.

Separately, Kansas can’t issue a brand-new license with no restrictions to anyone under 17 (K.S.A. 8-237). KDOR’s own summary describes the license without restrictions as the age-17 stage.

Penalties for breaking restricted license rules

Breaking any restriction leads to suspension of the restricted license.
Breaking a passenger rule counts as a moving traffic violation.
Two or more crashes chargeable to you: suspension, with no reinstatement for one year.

Common questions

What time can a 16-year-old drive in Kansas?

For six months: from 5 a.m. to 9 p.m. for any purpose, and at other hours only for work, school activities, religious activities or with a licensed adult beside you.

How many passengers can a 15-year-old have in Kansas?

None who are non-sibling minors. Siblings are allowed.

Can a 15-year-old in Kansas drive to a friend’s house?

Not alone. At 15 you may drive alone only to work, school or religious activities. Any other trip needs a licensed adult beside you.

Do I need driver’s ed for a restricted license at 16?

The statute requires it only at 15. At 16 you need a permit held for one year and the 50-hour affidavit.

Can I use GPS on my phone on a Kansas restricted license?

The statute bans operating a wireless communication device while driving, with only two emergency exceptions. Set your route before you start the car and ask KDOR about mounted navigation.

Does a Kansas restricted license let me drive a motorcycle?

Only a restricted class M license does, with its own adult-accompaniment rules.

Kansas Driving Test and the Driver’s Ed Waiver

Photo: >Author Quintin Soloviev, CC BY 4.0, via Wikimedia Commons

In Kansas, the driving test is one of three license exams, along with vision and written (K.S.A. 8-240). Many teens never take it. KDOR accepts an approved driver education completion certificate in place of the written and driving tests at several license stages. This page explains when the certificate works, when you need the drive test and how retests work.

Key facts

The Kansas license exam has three parts: vision, written and driving.
KDOR’s teen pages list “written and driving test, or driver education completion certificate” for the restricted license at 16 and the license without restrictions at 17.
For the restricted license at 15, driver education is required, and KDOR lists vision as the only test.
The driving test has three parts in the handbook: a pre-trip vehicle safety inspection, a basic control skills test (turnabouts and parallel parking) and a road test on a set route.
Retaking a failed driving test costs an extra $1.50 (K.S.A. 8-240, as of November 2026).

When does a driver’s ed certificate replace the Kansas driving test?

What you are applying for	Testing listed by KDOR
Instruction permit (14+)	Vision and written. A driver education certificate (DE-99) is accepted instead of the written test.
Restricted license at 15	Vision. Approved driver education is required.
Restricted license at 16	Vision, plus the written and driving tests or a driver education completion certificate
License without restrictions at 17	Vision, plus the written and driving tests or a driver education completion certificate
Adult applicant	Vision, written and driving. Ask KDOR whether a certificate applies to you.

A completed driver education course can remove the need for in-office testing, but only with the right proof. Confirm your exact case with KDOR before you skip booking a drive test.

What counts as proof of driver’s ed?

Accepted: the certificate of completion from an approved Kansas course.
Lost certificate: a letter from your driver education provider.
Course taken in another state: you also need a letter from that state’s education department confirming the course is accredited.
Internet-only courses: the handbook says online driver education certificates are not accepted for licensing. Only approved school-district or private-school programs count. Check this with KDOR if you are considering an online course.

One more catch: KDOR says time on a driver’s education permit does not count toward the one year you must hold an instruction permit before a restricted license.

What happens on the Kansas drive test?

Section 11 of the Kansas Driving Handbook (February 2022) says you must pass three tests to get your license. Under 17, you can take them only after holding your permit for a full year or turning 17, whichever comes first.

1. Pre-trip vehicle safety inspection

You walk around the car, point to or touch each item and tell the examiner what you are checking and why. You do not open the hood or crawl underneath. Expect to cover leaks, tire pressure and tread (the penny test), headlights, tail and brake lights, turn signals, seats and belts, windows, doors and mirrors, wipers and washers, heater, air conditioning and defroster, horn, dash indicator lights and the fuel gauge.

The test car itself must have working signals, brake lights and horn, safe tires, intact windshield and mirrors, and a valid tag. It must also be a safe temperature inside: working air conditioning above 85°F, air conditioning or a working passenger window from 75°F to 85°F, and a working heater below 45°F.

2. Basic control skills

Off-street, on-street or both, you do two or more of these: a forward two-point turnabout (into a driveway, then back out to the right), a reverse two-point turnabout, a three-point turnabout, and a left or right parallel park ending within 12 inches of the curb. Each reversal of direction, each touch of a cone or line, each missed or wrong signal, missed head checks and a poor final position all add to your score.

3. Road test

The examiner scores turns, intersections, urban and rural driving, a lane change left and back, expressway or limited-access entry and exit, curves and general driving. You will also be asked to name traffic signs you have just passed. Stop behind the line where you can see the rear tires of the car ahead, keep both hands on the outside of the wheel, and finish turns in the correct lane.

These mean an automatic fail: not wearing your belt, not checking blind spots, a moving violation (speeding, rolling a stop, ignoring a sign or signal), failing to yield, an avoidable crash or contact, any unsafe act that makes another driver take evasive action, driving over a curb or sidewalk without need, or the examiner having to take control.

Practice everything in the handbook’s “Basic Driving” and “Rules of the Road” sections too:

Smooth starting, accelerating, stopping and steering
Backing. The handbook says to steer slightly in the direction the rear should go, make quick checks to the front and sides when backing while turning, and keep looking back until you stop completely.
Right of way at intersections, including four-way stops
Obeying signals, signs and pavement markings
Speed and space management, and scanning for hazards
Parking legally (see US parking rules)

To compare with other states, read US road tests by state. To avoid the usual mistakes, see common reasons people fail the driving test.

Before you book: checklist

Your instruction permit, held for at least one year if you are under 17
The signed 50-hour affidavit if your stage needs it (see the affidavit guide)
A parent or guardian, if you are under 16 or applying for a restricted license
Your identity, age, residency and Social Security documents
A roadworthy vehicle that passes the handbook’s test-car checks, including heat and air conditioning for the weather

Failing and retaking the Kansas driving test

Each retake of the driving test costs an extra $1.50 examination fee.
If you haven’t passed all three tests within six months of applying, you file a reexamination application ($3).
Fail the driving test four times within six months, and you must wait six months from the last failure before testing again.

Source for all three: K.S.A. 8-240. License issuance fees are separate.

Common questions

Do you have to take a driving test in Kansas if you took driver’s ed?

Usually not for the restricted license at 16 or the license at 17. KDOR accepts the completion certificate instead of the written and driving tests. Bring the original certificate.

Does online driver’s ed count in Kansas?

The handbook says online driver education certificates are not accepted for licensing. Confirm with KDOR before you pay for a course.

Is parallel parking on the Kansas driving test?

It can be. The handbook lists left and right parallel parking among the basic control exercises, ending within 12 inches of the curb, along with two-point and three-point turnabouts. You will be given two or more of them.

How many times can you fail the Kansas driving test?

After four failures within six months, you wait six months before the next attempt.

Do adults need driver’s ed in Kansas?

No. Adults take the vision, written and driving tests.

Kansas Permit Test: Written Exam and the Online Option

Photo: >Author StarksWinter, CC BY-SA 4.0, via Wikimedia Commons

The Kansas written driving test (the permit test) is the knowledge exam you pass before KDOR issues an instruction permit. According to the Kansas Driving Handbook, it has 25 questions on Kansas traffic laws, and you must also identify road signs by their shape, color or symbol. You can take it at a driver’s license office, and some applicants can take it online.

Key facts

Earliest age: 14. Under 16, a parent or guardian must apply in writing (K.S.A. 8-2,100).
For a permit you pass the vision and written tests. The driving test comes later.
Format: 25 multiple-choice questions on traffic laws, signs and pavement markings. You need 80% to pass (Kansas Driving Handbook, February 2022).
Online option: KDOR launched a web-based written exam on April 1, 2021.
Statutory in-office fees (K.S.A. 8-240, as of November 2026): $2 permit application fee for class C; $1.50 to retake a failed written test.

What is on the Kansas permit test?

The handbook describes two parts:

Traffic laws: 25 written questions on Kansas traffic laws.
Road signs: identifying signs by their shape, color or symbol.

Section 11 of the handbook sets the pass mark at 80%, which is 20 of 25 correct. The test is not timed but usually takes 15 to 20 minutes. Not every office gives the knowledge test, so check KDOR’s office list before you go.

Everything comes from the Kansas Driving Handbook (Non-Commercial Driver’s Manual), available from KDOR in English and Spanish. Spend most of your study time on:

Right of way and traffic control devices (handbook “Rules of the Road” section)
Sign shapes and colors: see US road signs by shape and color
Pavement markings: see US pavement markings
School bus rules and parking
Alcohol, drugs and distractions (handbook “Be in Shape to Drive” section)

Can you take the Kansas written test online?

Yes, if you qualify. On April 1, 2021, KDOR’s Division of Vehicles launched KnowToDrive Online, a web-based version of the written exam. It is available 24/7 and runs on a laptop or desktop computer outside the driver’s license office. The handbook says the online exam is open to some applicants, not all, and the portal tells you whether you qualify.

Fees announced in 2021: $10 for the first online test and $8.50 for each retest. Check the current fee on the portal before you start, as it may have changed.
The in-office written test is still available.
You still visit a driver’s license office for the vision test, your documents and the permit itself. If you are under 16, a parent or guardian signs at the office.

How to get your Kansas instruction permit: step by step

Study the Kansas Driving Handbook.
Gather proof of age, identity, Kansas residency and Social Security number (or lawful presence), as K.S.A. 8-240 requires. See REAL ID and your first license if you want a REAL ID card.
If you are under 16, bring a parent or guardian to sign the application.
Pass the vision test. If you fail it, you can have your vision corrected and retake it at no extra fee.
Pass the written test, in the office or online.
Get your permit. It is valid for one year.

Can a driver’s ed certificate replace the written test?

KDOR’s teen FAQ says a driver education completion certificate (form DE-99) is accepted instead of the written test for an instruction permit, as long as you can prove your name and date of birth. Read Kansas driving test and the driver’s ed waiver for how certificates work at later stages.

What happens if you fail?

Situation	Rule (K.S.A. 8-240)
Failed the written test	Retake as soon as the next working day, after paying an extra $1.50 examination fee
Failed the vision test	Correct your vision and retest at no extra fee
Haven’t passed all tests within six months of applying	File a reexamination application ($3)
Failed the written test four times within six months	Wait six months from the last failure

The handbook gives you four chances at the written test. After a fourth fail you wait six months from that fail before starting again. These are the statutory examination fees for in-office testing. KDOR may add other charges, such as photo fees, to the license itself. Check the total on the KDOR website.

Rules once you hold the permit

Carry the permit whenever you drive.
A supervising adult must sit beside you. They must be at least 21, hold a valid class A, B, C or commercial license and have at least one year of driving experience.
Under 17: no one else in the front seat, and no wireless device use except to report illegal activity or call for emergency help.

Next steps are in Kansas restricted license rules at 15 and 16 and Kansas 50 hour supervised driving affidavit. For how other states run their tests, see US permit tests by state.

Common questions

How many questions are on the Kansas permit test?

The handbook says 25 questions on traffic laws, plus road sign identification.

What score do you need to pass the Kansas written test?

80%, according to the Kansas Driving Handbook. On 25 questions that means at least 20 correct.

Can I take the Kansas permit test at home?

Possibly. KDOR’s online exam can be taken on a laptop or desktop, but not every applicant qualifies. The portal checks your eligibility.

How old do you have to be to take the permit test in Kansas?

14. Under 16, a parent or guardian must apply in writing.

Is the Kansas permit test available in Spanish?

KDOR publishes a Spanish handbook (Manual de conducción de Kansas). Ask your office which languages the test itself is offered in.

How long is a Kansas instruction permit valid?

One year from issue. You renew it by retaking and passing the written test.

This guide is for Kansas teens, their parents and adult first-time drivers. You can get an instruction permit at 14 in Kansas, a restricted license at 15 or 16, and a license without restrictions once you meet the conditions of Kansas’s graduated driver licensing law, known as Cody’s Law. Below are the stages, the tests and where to find the detail.

Key facts

Licensing in Kansas is run by the Kansas Department of Revenue (KDOR), Division of Vehicles.
Instruction permit: from 14 (K.S.A. 8-2,100). Under 16, a parent or guardian must apply in writing.
Restricted license: from 15 with approved driver education, or from 16. Either way you must have held your permit for at least one year (K.S.A. 8-2,101).
Supervised driving: 50 hours, including 10 at night, certified by a parent or guardian’s signed affidavit.
Farm permit: from 14 if you live or work on a Kansas farm (K.S.A. 8-296).
Drivers under 21: the alcohol limit is .02 (K.S.A. 8-1567a).

The Kansas GDL stages at a glance

Stage	Earliest age	Main conditions
Instruction permit	14	Pass the vision and written tests. You may only drive with a supervising adult beside you. No phone use.
Restricted license (from 15)	15	Approved driver education, permit held 1 year, 25 supervised hours and a parent’s application. You may drive to work and school, or with an adult.
Restricted license (at 16)	16	Permit held 1 year and the 50-hour affidavit. For six months you may drive from 5 a.m. to 9 p.m. plus some set trips, with a passenger limit.
No restrictions	After the six-month period, if you have complied	A brand-new license with no restrictions can’t be issued under 17 (K.S.A. 8-237).

The full rules for each stage are in Kansas restricted license rules at 15 and 16.

Step 1: Get a Kansas instruction permit at 14

From 14 up to 17 you apply under K.S.A. 8-2,100. From 17 you apply under K.S.A. 8-239. Either way you must pass every part of the exam except the driving test. In practice that means the vision test and the written (knowledge) test. The permit lasts one year.

Carry the permit whenever you drive.
Your supervising driver must be at least 21, hold a valid class A, B, C or commercial license, have at least one year of driving experience and sit in the front seat beside you.
If you are under 17, no one else may sit in the front seat.
If you are under 17, you may not use a wireless device while driving. The only exceptions are reporting illegal activity or calling for medical or emergency help.

Test format, the online option and fees are covered in Kansas written driving test, including the online option.

Step 2: Log practice and sign the 50-hour affidavit

Kansas asks a parent or guardian to sign an affidavit stating that you completed at least 50 hours of supervised driving, including 10 at night. The supervising adult must be 21 or older and hold a valid class A, B, C or commercial license. When the affidavit is due depends on your path:

Restricted license at 15: 25 hours before the license, then the full 50 before you turn 16.
Restricted license at 16: 50 hours before the license.
First license at 17 (before 18): 50 hours (K.S.A. 8-235d).

The affidavit, a sample log and what happens if you skip it are in Kansas 50 hour supervised driving affidavit.

Step 3: Pass the driving test, or use a driver’s ed certificate

The Kansas exam has three parts: vision, written and driving (K.S.A. 8-240). KDOR’s teen pages list an approved driver education completion certificate as an alternative to the written and driving tests at several stages. See Kansas driving test and the driver’s ed waiver for which certificates count and what the drive test involves.

Farm permits for rural teens

A Kansas teen aged 14 to under 17 who lives on, or is paid to work on, a farm of more than 20 acres can apply for a farm permit. It allows farm-related driving and driving to and from school on school days. Details are in Kansas farm permit for teen drivers.

What the Kansas Driving Handbook covers

KDOR publishes the Kansas Driving Handbook (Non-Commercial Driver’s Manual) in English and Spanish. The edition used here is the one revised February 2022. The written test is based on it. Its 12 sections are:

1. The driver’s license: license and permit types, required tests, renewal, loss of driving privileges
2. State laws and rules of the road (summarized below)
3. Being in shape to drive: vision, hearing, fatigue, distractions, aggressive driving, alcohol and other drugs, health and emotions
4. Before you drive: seat and mirrors, safety belts, air bags, child passenger safety
5. Basic driving: starting, accelerating, stopping, steering and backing
6. Rules of the road: right of way, traffic signals and signs, pavement markings, school buses, parking
7. Safe driving tips: visual search, speed and space management, communicating, hazards
8. Avoiding collisions and emergencies
9. Sharing the road: pedestrians, cyclists, motorcycles, emergency vehicles, traffic stops, trucks, buses and slow vehicles
10. Special situations: rural roads, night driving, bad weather and animals
11. How to prepare for your tests (see the written test and driving test guides)
12. Optional information: trip planning, winter and hot weather, tornadoes, lightning and floods

Check KDOR for a newer edition before your test. The national guides below cover the same ground in more depth:

Kansas road rules from the handbook

Speed limits unless posted (K.S.A. 8-1558): 30 mph in urban districts, 75 mph on posted separated multilane highways, 65 mph on other state and federal highways, 55 mph on county and township roads, and 20 mph in marked school zones and business districts. Driving so slowly that you block traffic is also illegal.
Seat belts: every occupant must be belted, and it is a primary offense. Children under 4 ride in a child safety seat. Ages 4 to 8 use a child seat or booster unless taller than 4 feet 9 inches or heavier than 80 pounds. From 8, a seat belt. The handbook says children under 14 must ride in the rear seat, belted.
Signals: at least 100 feet before you turn, slow down or change lanes. Kansas also requires headlights whenever your wipers are on.
U-turns: not on a curve, near the top of a hill, or anywhere other drivers cannot see you for at least 500 feet.
Passing: not within 100 feet of a bridge, viaduct, tunnel, intersection or railroad crossing, on a hill or curve, where a solid yellow line is on your side, or within 100 feet of a stopped emergency vehicle with lights on. Be back in your lane before you come within 200 feet of oncoming traffic.
Following: two seconds in good conditions, four in bad conditions. Stay at least 500 feet behind emergency vehicles.
School buses: stop for a school, church or day care bus loading children, and stay stopped until the stop arm is pulled in and the red lights go off. Traffic on the opposite side of a divided highway does not stop.
Emergency vehicles and work crews: pull to the right and stop for lights or sirens. For a stopped emergency, tow or construction vehicle, move out of the lane next to it, or slow down if you cannot (K.S.A. 8-1530, 8-1531).
Parking bans: within 15 feet of a hydrant, more than 12 inches from the curb, within 30 feet of a signal, stop sign or flashing beacon, within 50 feet of a railroad crossing, and within 20 feet of a fire station driveway (75 feet across the street).
Studded tires are legal only from November 1 to April 1.

Licensing rules for every Kansas driver

New residents need a Kansas license within 90 days. Active-duty military and their families, out-of-state students, temporary trainees and foreign visitors here up to a year with valid papers can drive on a valid license from age 16.
Vision: at least 20/40 in one eye, with or without lenses. An eye form from an optometrist or ophthalmologist must be from the last 90 days.
Renewal: KDOR sends a notice at least 30 days ahead. An expired license costs $1 extra, and after more than a year expired you retake the vision, written and driving tests.
Suspension: three moving violations in 12 months, failing to appear in court, letting your insurance lapse, DUI, an open container, or failing to report a crash. Refusing a breath or blood test means 1 year for a first refusal, 2 for a second, 3 for a third and 10 for a fourth.
Revocation: vehicular homicide, leaving an injury or fatal crash, reckless driving, a felony using a vehicle, fleeing police or vehicular battery. A fifth test failure or refusal means permanent revocation.
DUI: .08 or more is illegal. The handbook says a first conviction brings a $750 to $1,000 fine, at least 48 hours in jail or 100 hours of community service, a suspension and an ignition interlock.

Kansas laws every new driver should know

Texting: no driver of any age may write, send or read a text, instant message or email while driving on a public road (K.S.A. 8-15,111). The handbook notes that talking or dialing is not specifically illegal for fully licensed drivers. Permit and restricted license holders face a wider ban on using wireless devices at all.
Alcohol under 21: driving with a breath or blood alcohol content of .02 or more is illegal (K.S.A. 8-1567a). See zero tolerance laws for drivers under 21.
Breaking GDL rules: breaking a restricted license or farm permit restriction leads to suspension. Two or more chargeable crashes bring a suspension of one year.

Common questions

Can you get a driver’s license at 15 in Kansas?

Yes, a restricted one. You need approved driver education, a permit held for at least one year, 25 supervised hours and a parent or guardian’s written application.

What can a 16-year-old do on a Kansas restricted license?

For six months: drive from 5 a.m. to 9 p.m., to and from work, school activities or religious activities, or at any time with a licensed adult beside you. You may carry no more than one passenger under 18 who isn’t family.

When do the restrictions end?

The statute lifts them six months after you turn 16 (if you started at 15) or six months after your license is issued at 16, provided you complied. Two or more moving violations, or a missing 50-hour affidavit, delay this.

Is driver’s ed required in Kansas?

Only for the restricted license at 15. At 16 and 17 it is optional, but a completion certificate can stand in for some tests.

Can I take the Kansas permit test online?

Some applicants can, through KDOR’s web-based written exam. Check whether you qualify before you book.

I am 17 or older and have never driven. What is my route?

Apply for an instruction permit under K.S.A. 8-239 and practice with a 21+ licensed adult. Then take the driving test or present a driver education certificate. If you are 17, a parent or guardian must also sign the 50-hour affidavit.

Can I drive in another state on my Kansas permit?

Each state sets its own rule. See driving with a learner’s permit in another state.

The real test needs 80%, so aim higher here. Sign identification is the easiest place to pick up marks: there are only a few shapes and colors to learn.

Common questions

Are these the real Kansas test questions?

No. They are original, unofficial practice written from Kansas statutes and the handbook’s topics.

What score do I need to pass the Kansas permit test?

80%. Section 11 of the Kansas Driving Handbook says the test has 25 multiple-choice questions, so you need at least 20 right. You get four tries before a six-month wait.

Can I take the Kansas written test online?

Some applicants can, through KnowToDrive Online. The portal tells you whether you qualify. You still visit an office for the vision test and permit.

Can driver’s ed replace the written test?

KDOR’s teen FAQ says a driver education completion certificate (form DE-99) is accepted instead of the written test for an instruction permit. See Kansas driving test and the driver’s ed waiver.

I live on a farm. Is there a different permit?

Yes, a farm permit from 14 to under 17 if you live or work on a farm of more than 20 acres. See the Kansas farm permit.

Practice tests for other states?

See US permit practice tests by state.
