In New Mexico, if you are a driver between the ages of 15 and 17, you must take a driver’s education course before DMV will issue a provisional license. After driving for six months without an incident, DMV will then issue you a regular driver’s license.
Driver’s education course will include 35 hours of classroom time and 50 hours of supervised driving. After completing the required hours, you must pass a written exam. If you are between the ages of 18 and 24, you will need to complete a DWI-awareness program before you are eligible for a new license.
Required Testing
All applicants for a new license must take a vision test, a written and road test before obtaining a license. If you are applying for a license after having yours revoked, then you will be required to take the written test again.
Required Documentation
You should have the following documentation with you when you apply for a license:
- Current driver’s license from out of state
- Social Security card
- Proof of residency
- Proof of completion of DWI-awareness program
