If you have not passed your driving test within that time, you will need to renew the permit before practising further.<\/p>\r\n        <\/div>\r\n\r\n        <div class=\"lp-faq-item\">\r\n            <h3>Is there a learner's permit application form I can download?<\/h3>\r\n            <p>Yes.

However, if you are aged 65 or older, or applying for Classes 2, 4, 5, 6, or 7, you will need to complete a Medical Certificate (Form No. 2).<\/p>\r\n        <\/div>\r\n\r\n        <div class=\"lp-faq-item\">\r\n            <h3>Can foreign nationals living in Trinidad apply for a learner's permit?<\/h3>\r\n            <p>Yes.
