On this page you will find a wealth of links to helpful handbooks and manuals provided by the Kentucky Division of Driver Licensing (DDL). Most of them are available in PDF format, and must be viewed with Adobe Acrobat Reader, which is available for free.
Top Driver Manual
The Kentucky Driver Manual could almost be called a one-stop shop for all your driver licensing questions. The manual offers information regarding:
- Change of name and/or address.
- Renewal or duplicate licenses.
- Commercial driver licenses.
- Motorcycles, mopeds, bicycles, trail bikes, and ATVs.
- Road rules and driving tips.
- Physical and mental condition of the driver.
- Organ and tissue donation.
For those with a dial-up Internet connection, the DDL has broken the manual into five sections for speedier access.
