Oklahoma HB4153 requires minors to demonstrate eighth-grade reading proficiency to obtain a driver's license.
Oklahoma HB4153 mandates that minors seeking a driver's license must demonstrate an eighth-grade reading level. This can be achieved by passing a reading proficiency test approved by the State Department of Education or by providing alternative documentation. Students enrolled in public schools must complete the reading portion of the statewide eighth-grade assessment. Students not meeting this requirement will receive a plan for remedial reading. Students educated by other means, such as homeschooling, must provide a written statement from their legal custodial parent or guardian.
