What is the minimum age to get a California Drivers License?

The correct answer is: 16

To get a California Drivers License, the minimum age requirement is 16. This is because individuals must complete a driver's education course and have their learner's permit for at least 6 months before taking the behind-the-wheel driving test. Option A is incorrect because individuals must be at least 15 and a half years old to enroll in a driver's education course. Option C is incorrect because individuals must have their learner's permit for at least 6 months before taking the behind-the-wheel driving test, and this would put the minimum age at 16 and a half. Option D is incorrect because individuals must be at least 18 years old to obtain a full unrestricted driver's license without completing a driver's education course or holding a learner's permit for 6 months.
