A 3-minute lesson from the Hawaii course. Read the rules and examples, follow the handbook page references, and check your understanding before you move on.
If you're under 18, you move through a graduated licensing program. After the permit comes a provisional license: you may drive alone, but with limits on late-night driving and on young passengers while you gain experience.
Graduated licensing program
The program drivers under 18 must complete to reach a Class 3 license, letting you develop driving skills over time as you gain experience and maturity.
Between 11:00 p.m. and 5:00 a.m. you may drive only with a licensed parent or guardian, unless you are driving to or from work or a school-authorized activity.
You're 16 with a provisional license and your shift ends at 11:30 p.m. You may drive yourself home from work. But if two friends under 18 want a ride home from a party at midnight, you can't take them unless your parent or guardian is in the car.
