For 16-year-old Dejae Adlam, getting a licence means more freedom.
The Rotorua Boys' High School student has been studying the road code and taking the online tests on the AA website in preparation for taking the first step to getting his licence - sitting for his learner licence.
Dejae is
hoping to sit the theory test in the next week or two, so he can get out on the road and practise driving. He said much of what he'd learned through the road code and online tests was straightforward and he didn't think he would have too much of a problem.
"Most of it is pretty simple."
He's the first of his group of friends to try the learner licence theory test.
