Obtaining a Utah Drivers License  

Step #1:  Enroll in a driver education course. Start with the classroom/internet study portion of the training. A-1 Openroad

  • Complete 9 online lessons and a practice exam from your computer.
  • Contact A-1 and schedule an in-person final exam. Once you pass this exam with an 80% or better, you have completed the "classroom" portion of the course.

Step #2: Obtain a Utah learners permit by taking the State written exam at a Utah driver license division. 

  • Once you have passed the state's written test, you will be issued a learners permit by the DLD.  You can begin your driving experience (at least 40 hours using learners permit) with an approved driving instructor, parent, legal guardian, or responsible adult who has signed for financial responsibility.
  • Email A-1 Driving School a copy of your learner's permit to info@a-1drivingschool.com. 

Step #3: Schedule three 2-hour driving sessions with A-1.  

  • A-1 instructors are experienced and patient.  They will help you to become familiar with different driving environments and basic driving maneuvers in a real-world environment.
  • Driving appointments will be scheduled at a-1drivetime.com. Plan Ahead! Expect longer completion times in the summer months.
  • Once you have completed the online course and 6 hours of driving with A-1, you have completed the driver education requirement!

Step #4: Take a state road test from the driver's license division or through a state approved third party tester. 

  • Under state rule, A-1 will not be able to provide the final state road test for students who received training from A-1 Driving School.
  • You will need to complete the Utah safety and trends exam prior to being issued a driver's license. Utah Safety and Trends Exam

Step #5:  Schedule an appointment with the driver's license to obtain your driver's license. 

  • Please allow A-1 48 hours (2 business days) to be sure all information regarding your driver education has been entered into the state's system.  You can verify that all information has been entered into the state system by logging into your drivetime account.  If your information has been entered, you will see a "congratulations" message in place of the scheduling calendar. Schedule with DLD
