密歇根州驾照
搬到美国后，在密歇根州拿到你的第一本驾照。
简短回答
办理流程
- 1刚搬来你搬到了密歇根州，想在这里开车。
- 2学习许可你拿着学习驾驶许可（learner permit）上路练车。
- 3笔试你参加笔试。
- 4路考你坐上驾驶座，参加路考。
- 5拿到驾照考试通过，驾照就是你的了。
如果你刚到美国
你需要的文件
- 仍在有效期内的文件外州或加拿大驾照过期不满四年时可作为身份证明。美国护照必须有效且未过期；已过期的移民文件只有在附有显示已申请新文件的 I-797 表格时才被接受。7
你的社会安全号码
你要参加的考试
视力检查
你要做视力检查，以确定视力是否达到最低标准；如果你需要戴眼镜或隐形眼镜才能通过，你的驾照上会注明驾驶时必须佩戴。如果检查不合格，必须由眼科专业人员填写一份确认达到标准的视力声明，这可能带来只能在白天驾驶等限制。9
路考
初次的普通驾照（operator）或职业驾照（chauffeur）必须经过包含驾驶技能考试的考核才能发放。1
笔试练习题
无论你是在家在线参加考试，还是在州务卿办事处参加考试，都请复习《What Every Driver Must Know》(特别是第 4 至 7 章)以及可在 Michigan.gov/SOS 获取的《Driving Skills Test Study Guide》(SOS-360)。11
路考要带什么
考试用车及其保险
考官会检查有效的密歇根无过错保险证明、车辆注册，以及贴有正确年份标签的车牌。如果车辆不符合规定的法律和安全标准，考试将被取消。12
你必须提供一辆安全、工况正常的车辆，并出示考试车辆的有效保险证明、当前车辆注册和有效车牌。考试车辆应当是你熟悉并在练车时用过的车。13
会让车内人员面临危险的缺陷是拒绝考试的理由。检查项目包括刹车、刹车灯(1986 年及更新车型包括中央后刹车灯)、车门、油量、前灯、暖风和除雾器、喇叭、轮毂螺母(每辆车只允许缺一颗)、消音器、车内后视镜和车外左侧后视镜、车内每个人的安全带和座椅、速度表、悬挂、尾灯、轮胎、前后转向灯、挡风玻璃，以及雨刮器和喷水器。14
驾驶人车门和乘客车门必须能从车内和车外打开——只能单向打开的车门无法通过检查。如果挡风玻璃上的裂纹挡住驾驶人的视线，考官也可以拒绝考试。15
用于考试的驾驶教学车必须取下培训标志——考试期间不允许有“Student Driver”标志。16
由驾驶人启动的功能和系统，例如自动泊车，在驾驶技能考试中不得使用；而自行工作的系统，例如倒车摄像头或盲区提示灯，是允许的。如果对某个系统有疑问，请在考试开始前询问考官是否允许使用。17
发动机运转时自行开启的系统——倒车摄像头、盲区指示灯、车道偏离警报——在技能考试中是允许的。你不必关闭现代汽车的内置辅助功能。18
