After passing the driver's license examination, you may operate a vehicle on public roads before your driver's license is issued.

• A. False
• B. True
• C. Not determinable
• D. Not applicable

Answer: (A)

You must have a valid license or the appropriate authorized permit to drive on public roads; simply passing the exam does not grant immediate permission. After you finish the driving test, the licensing authority processes and issues your license. Until that license is actually issued, you are not legally allowed to operate a vehicle on public streets. In some places there is a separate learner’s permit that allows supervised practice, but it’s not the same as the full license and still has its own rules. So the statement is false because legal driving requires the license to be issued (or a specific permit that permits driving under defined conditions), not just passing the test.
