 Posted: 07/16/03 - 11:47 Post subject: Driver's License, how old were you when you got yours?
In KS, (at least in the 1980's) you could legally drive a farm implement at any age on the roadways as long as you could prove that you were doing official farm business.
Legal age to pick up a learner's permit :: 14 
I have a hard time looking at my youngest and picturing her getting a driver's license in just a year and 3 months.

I was 16 - which is the minimum age in WI. Took me 2 tries. I think the first lady I had was in a bad mood.

 My wife got hers at 14 in South Dakota because of the farm rule, even though she didn't live on a farm or know how to drive any type of farm equipment.

So the famous Rando charm didn't work on her?

14 for me too!
But I was driving flatbeds in the field to pick up straw bales on by age 12. Not really farm equipment, it was just a pick-up, but I got to drive pretty much all day at age 12.
