can a person with down syndrome get a drivers license?

Yes they can! I have talked to several parents of young adults with Ds who drive.  Their biggest difficulty was finding auto insurance.  So contrary to popular belief people with Down syndrome CAN do most things other people do.

Sure, if a person has an extra copy of Chromosome 21 (trisomy 21) They are mostly likely someone who has Down Syndrome. There are many other instances of extra chromosomeos (Kleinfelder's syndrome, XXY syndrome, etc).

It depends on the disability. If a student has a learning disorder, the the chances of successfully taking high level courses are not good. If it is a physical disability or behavior disorder, then the student has as good a chance as anyone depending upon the work ethic of the student and how important education is to them.

You don't have to have your registration card, but in MOST states you do have to have your driver's license.

Yes you can, but first you have to pass a driving test first--both written and road test.  Good Luck!

No matter the state have you ever wondered how someone that cannot speak English can pass the test for a drivers license? I mean aside from pictures aren't road signs in English?

Probably never being allowed to drive when you reach the legal age......  seeing as the chance of you ever getting a license would probably be slim to none.\n\nThen, if by chance you were ever allowed to drive, your insurance would probably be insanely high.\n\nTake a bus.... haul a cab....  ride a bike....

Most state's driver license department use only name and date of birth as Identifiers. So if you know what state this person is in,  it will be possible to find then using the Department of Transportation database.

I think it depends on the state. I only needed my drivers licence.

It depends, as always. I think I'm a pretty capable driver at 17 (if I wasn't, my parents wouldn't have let me get my license.) There are others, though, teens as well as adults who are terrible drivers, especially that person who tried to turn left in front of me when it was my turn at the four-way stop.. grrrrr... anyway, I agree with a few people who answered before me, that there should be a better program and test for driver's training.
