Once you have passed the driver's license examination, you may operate a vehicle on public roads even before the issuance of your driver's license.

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

Answer: (B)

A driver's license is the actual permission to drive on public roads, not just the result of passing the test. Even after you pass the driving exam, you must wait for and receive the official license card (or a sanctioned temporary/provisional permit where allowed) to legally drive. Without that issued license, driving on public roads is not permitted. Some jurisdictions do provide a limited provisional permit for practice, but that varies by place and the question’s statement implies you can drive before any license is issued, which isn’t correct in general.
