If I receive my instruction permit in December 2007, am I required to hold the permit for three months as required under current law or nine months as required under the new law effective January 1, 2008?
A new driver who receives his/her instruction permit prior to January 1, 2008, will fall under current guidelines and be required to hold the permit for three months before obtaining a driver’s license. A driver receiving his/her permit on January 1, 2008, or later must hold the permit for a minimum of nine months before a driver’s license may be obtained. Why do Graduated Driver Licensing laws limit the number of passengers in a car driven by a teen? Passenger restrictions reduce the likelihood of a young, inexperienced driver being distracted by a car full of teens. Current law limits the number of passengers for a new driver to only one passenger for the first six months of his/her driver’s license. Effective January 1, 2008, the new law extends the passenger limitation time to a full year, or until the license holder turns 18, whichever occurs first. If I get my driver’s license in December 2007, will the extended passenger limitation rule apply? Drivers ages 16 and 17 who receive
