Introduced by: Stephen D. Newman | all patrons    ...    notes | add to my profiles

SUMMARY AS PASSED: (all summaries)

Provisional driver's licenses. Provides that the holder of a provisional driver's license under age 18 is not authorized to operate a motor vehicle with more than one passenger who is less than 21 years old unless the driver is accompanied by a parent or person acting in loco parentis who is occupying a seat beside the driver. However, the bill does provide that, after the first year the provisional license is issued, the holder may operate a motor vehicle with up to three passengers less than 21 years old if driving to or from a school-sponsored activity, or if a licensed driver who is at least 21 years old is sitting on the seat beside the driver, or if there is an emergency. This passenger limitation does not apply to members of the driver's family or household. This bill only applies to those with a provisional driver's license who turn 17 after July 1, 2013.
