nice man, got my liscense a little over 2 months ago, i thought that pennsylvania rules suck until i heard nj's, in pa you can get your permit at 16, and then your liscense at 16 1/2, you have to have 50 hours behind the wheel with someone with a liscense over 21, and i guess im also lucky that i got free lessons for 6 hours (9 45 min sessions ) cus our school hires someone to do it for free
for the liscensce test you have to take a road test where you have to parallel park to start (which is easy after you get the hang of it, thing is though its tought to get a hang of) and then go out on a road test, and just have to pass, i got a perfect score
but anyway good luck with your permit, i thought my times with a permit where stupid and i just wanted my liscense so i could drive by myself whenever and wherever, so gl
btw i have a 96 explorer xlt, pretty sweet car can fill it with a lot of my buds, but gas sucks
