Without licence, you cannot drive any vehicle. Driving licence is document that gives you legal right to drive. Transport authority issues it to eligible citizens.

Without your parent\u2019s approval, you cannot get a valid driving licence.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Parents_Consent_Letter_for_Driving_Licence\"><\/span>Parents Consent Letter for Driving Licence<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Parent consent letter for driving licence is also called parental permission letter.

There are two tests, one for learning licence and one practical test for permanent licence. In learning licence test, you must score at least 60% to pass. It has simple multiple-choice questions. In practical test, you will be tested on:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul>\n<li> Parallel parking<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Driving in 8 shape<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Driving on uphill road<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Reverse driving in S shape<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Government has made this easier. Some authorized centers can train you and give certificate on behalf of RTO. This saves your time. For two-wheeler, test is different. You have only one test, and you must ride without putting your foot on ground.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Objective_of_Parent%E2%80%99s_Consent_Letter_for_Driving_Licence\"><\/span>Objective of Parent&#8217;s Consent Letter for Driving Licence<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Purpose of this letter is simple. Children below 18 depend on you, so your approval is required for driving licence. Parent consent is mandatory under Section 32 of Motor Vehicles Act. It is affidavit, where you confirm that you allow your child to apply for licence. But giving consent does not guarantee driving licence. Your child will get licence only after passing driving test. Keep these points in mind before submitting parent consent letter.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"alignleft\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"128\" height=\"128\" src=\"https:\/\/itzeazy.in\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/also-read.webp\" alt=\"also read\" class=\"wp-image-4773\" srcset=\"https:\/\/itzeazy.in\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/also-read.webp 128w, https:\/\/itzeazy.in\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/also-read-88x88.webp 88w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 128px) 100vw, 128px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/itzeazy.in\/blog\/2022\/06\/11\/how-to-fill-form-1-self-declaration-for-learning-licence\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">How to Fill Form 1 Self Declaration for Learning Licence<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/itzeazy.in\/blog\/2022\/03\/05\/learning-license-download\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Learning License Download<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/itzeazy.in\/blog\/2022\/04\/13\/how-to-renew-learners-licence\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">How to renew learners licence?<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"FAQs\"><\/span>FAQs<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\t\t<section\t\thelp class=\"sc_fs_faq sc_card    \"\n\t\t\t\t>\n\t\t\t\t<h4>What is parent\u2019s consent letter for driving licence in India?<\/h4>\t\t\t\t<div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"sc_fs_faq__content\">\n\t\t\t\t\n\n<p>Parent consent letter is formal document where you give permission for minor (age 16\u201318) to apply for driving license in India.<\/p>\n\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section\t\thelp class=\"sc_fs_faq sc_card    \"\n\t\t\t\t>\n\t\t\t\t<h4>At what age can minor apply for driving licence in India with parental consent?<\/h4>\t\t\t\t<div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"sc_fs_faq__content\">\n\t\t\t\t\n\n<p>Minor can apply for driving license between age 16 and 18 if you give consent.<\/p>\n\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section\t\thelp class=\"sc_fs_faq sc_card    \"\n\t\t\t\t>\n\t\t\t\t<h4>What should be included in a parent\u2019s consent letter for a driving licence?<\/h4>\t\t\t\t<div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"sc_fs_faq__content\">\n\t\t\t\t\n\n<p>Letter should include your confirmation as legal guardian, child full name and date of birth, your signature, and approval for application.<\/p>\n\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section\t\thelp class=\"sc_fs_faq sc_card    \"\n\t\t\t\t>\n\t\t\t\t<h4>Is there a specific format for the parent\u2019s consent letter?<\/h4>\t\t\t\t<div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"sc_fs_faq__content\">\n\t\t\t\t\n\n<p>Yes, consent letter must follow format given by RTO.
