No, they won't, and Alabama Law states: anyone who takes a driver's test must be accompanied by a licensed driver, and the car that they will be driving must have insurance on it. I know people who have been in a similar situation, and they just have to find a buddy that will practice driving with them, and go with them to take the test. People here in Alabama are pretty friendly, so it shouldn't be too hard to find someone that would be able to help you out.
BTW: Mobile does have a public transportation system, and dozens of cab companies. You just picked the wrong one I guess. Most cab companies here don't drive around looking for fares, you have to call them. All of the ones I've ever dealt with have a policy on how long it should take from the time they receive the call and the time they arrive.

can you drive? do you have your permit? i thought you had to have a license to buy a car but depending on the state you live in also. others say you can get the title in someone elses name till you get licensed but there may be some drawbacks because you technically dont own the car until its transfered. you might need a license to establish insurance and most dealers wont let the car off the lot w/o insurance. what if you get into an accident or stopped by police and you dont have a license, you can rack up tickets that might hinder you from getting your L's when you need to.

you could in all probability purchase the motor vehicle and get a vehicle registration and license and not employing a driving force license. whether, you will desire to have the insurance once you get the motor vehicle. you will desire to tell the insurance company an approved driving force on your loved ones. Why no longer call your insurance agent and tell him-her the variety vehicle it extremely is and your recommendations and ask him/her this recommendations? they are people who would desire to tell. you won't have the ability to generally get vehicle license without evidence of insurance. while you're under 18, then you definately would choose a determine to sign for it as you at the instant are not of age to make contracts. so which you would be able to desire to talk to insurance company to make certain the way it must be worked. you could locate once you verify on the fee of the insurance which you would be able to desire to hook your insurance on your determine's coverage and merely pay them the version because it extremely is probably approximately $1000. If the motor vehicle is previous and does not fee a lot, you will get criminal duty and not insurance that covers your very own vehicle (no finished). generally you will get better cost on your determine's coverage than happening your very own. whether it could rely on the variety vehicle you get and so on, to boot as your age. 25 years is a breaking line on fee of insurance (one element).

Yes, you do not need a license to buy a car. You DO need a license, or a licensed driver, to buy insurance for the car. So you'll have to pay cash for the car - no borrowing money! ANd you won't be able to get tags for it until you have insurance.

Normally people like to have a license to drive the car they are going to purchase. Most dealerships require some form of ID...so if you don't have a license, you should at least have a state ID. If you're using a check or credit card, chances are they will ask for proof of ID so that they know who you are, and that you're not spending someone else's money.
If anything, go get a license, and if you don't have a state ID, get one of those too...becuase you cannot even test drive the vehicle without a license.
YOU SHOULD ALWAYS HAVE SOME FORM OF IDENTIFICATION WITH YOU AT ALL TIMES!!!!

YES you can buy a car, get it registered (license plates) and insure it without a license. You just can not opperate it on public roads unless you have a drivers license.

You can buy and *(insure) one but you cannot drive it. Take a licensed friend with you to the car dealer.
*check the insurance statutes within your state or ask the insurance company of your choice

Yes. As long as you have money, car dealer's aren't picky. If you're worried get a permit first.
