Christina Haack Says Daughter Taylor, 15, Earned a California Learner’s Permit

She becomes eligible for a provisional license at 16 after 50 supervised hours followed by a road test.

Overview

  • Haack shared Instagram Stories showing Taylor at the DMV and then driving a Tesla Model X with her dad, Tarek El Moussa, in the passenger seat.
  • Tarek and stepmom Heather Rae El Moussa reshared the clips, underscoring the family’s cooperative co‑parenting as Taylor makes a rare appearance on their social media.
  • California allows learner permits at 15½ after written and vision tests, and permit holders must drive with a licensed adult age 25 or older in the front seat.
  • After her 16th birthday on September 22, Taylor can apply for a provisional license if she logs 50 supervised hours and passes a driving test, with first‑year limits on late‑night driving and under‑20 passengers.
  • Reports note the SUV in the video is a Tesla Model X, with unclear ownership, and describe its near six‑figure price and driver‑assist hardware that requires active supervision.
