“you can get a permit at 12 in pa???”

No. Definately not.

At 16, you have to have your driving permit for 6 months before you can be considered for a license in PA.

No, the article said there were charges pending because you can't legally teach a 12 year old to drive in PA. When I was a kid, in Texas you could get a hardship license at 14, or motorcycle under around 100cc at the same age.

My parents made me wait until I was sixteen, but many of my cousins that lived in the country got their DLs at 14, and started driving at 12 or 13. Course, most of them had started driving tractors at 10 or 11. Come to think of it, one of my cousins did wreck four cars before he was twenty, so maybe it wasn't a great idea.
