Amazing how much things have changed over the years. Back in 55 when I got mine driver's ed was just being invented. Town kids took it, but us farmers had enough experience in fields to not bother. Minimum age in Mn was 15. Only restriction on learner's permit was a licensed driver riding shotgun. But the test score sheet was not valid to drive on. Had to wait for the actual card to be mailed from St Paul. Permit valid for 6 months, could renew as often as needed. Could take regular lic road test whenever you felt you could pass it. Some guys took permit test on 15th birthday, made appointment for road test as soon as permit came in mail. Got my chauffeuer lic at 18. In those days it was a seperate card, good for 1 year, cost a buck. When they combined the 2 into the class A,B,C etc in 66 or 67 I grandfathered in, no aditional test. Same thing when CDL came out. "Based on experience, road test waived" was marked on application. Not sure about now, but in those days in Mn, person on active military duty whose lic expired, they would honor it for 30 days after discharge. Civilians working Civil Service on a military base did not get this automatic extension.
