Arizona has one of the shortest teen paths in the country. The instruction permit is available from 15 years 6 months for a fee of $7, after the knowledge and vision tests at the Motor Vehicle Division. It is held 6 months, and the teen either logs 30 hours of supervised driving, 10 of them at night, certified by a parent, or completes an approved driver education course, which replaces the hours. The Class G graduated license follows at 16 years for $25, and its two limits apply only during the first six months: no driving from midnight to 5 a.m. unless with a licensed parent or for school, work, religion or a family emergency, and no more than one passenger under 18 who is not a sibling. By 16 years 6 months the restrictions are gone. Arizona allows no detectable alcohol for drivers under 21 and bans phones for permit holders and new drivers. The Arizona test length and pass mark are not published on the pages we could read; the practice test uses 20 questions and an 80 % target.

Arizona, Nevada, California
| Arizona | Nevada | California | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Permit age | 15 years 6 months | 15 years 6 months | 15 years 6 months |
| Supervised hours | 30 | 50 | 50 |
| Provisional license | 16 years | 16 years | 16 years |

All three start at 15½, but Arizona lifts its limits a year and a half before Nevada.
What to study
The Arizona Driver License Manual covers signs, signals, right of way, freeway merging, dust storms ("pull aside, stay alive"), monsoon flooding and the "stupid motorist law" on driving into flooded washes, as well as alcohol and the under-21 zero tolerance rule. Signs follow the national MUTCD, which the "Road signs only" test drills.
