Heh, I'm dating myself, but I got my first license at 14 in Idaho. The only thing I needed was a 10 minute practical exam and to pass the written exam. There was no minimum required hours of driving (Scary, I know!)

They've since changed it to 16 with 50 hours of supervised driving.

It’s 14 here in Arkansas for a learner’s permit, and 16 for a full license. The permit requires a written test (that’s trivial), and you have have a permit for six months if you’re under 18 I think.

You can get a limited ”hardship” license to go to school or work at 14.
