Yeah I am seeing that also now that I look deeper?

This page also seems to say 16 but above I cited a link saying 15.

You might need to call the DMV and ask why there are these two conflicting ages.

Elsewhere, I found this:

>You must be at least 16 years old to apply for a learner's permit in Pennsylvania, but you can start fulfilling the physical exam and other pre-appointment requirements as early as 15 ½ (source)

It seems to agree though just turning 15 by itself won't do it. Six months after turning 15, you can start doing some eligibility requirements but no permit till 16, from what I read...

Please note that the website that did say 15, was NOT an official state DMV site. Just a unofficial web page, which really ANYONE can make and factual accuracy doesn't matter, shrug.

So someone random made a page collecting each state's info -- and they got Pennsylvania's info wrong. Then probably other sites copied that wrong info. Only the official PA state gov pages should be trusted.
