Modifies provisions relating to driving offenses committed by young drivers
HB 1339 modifies rules for young drivers seeking licenses. It requires applicants under 16 to complete 40 hours of behind-the-wheel driving practice (including 10 nighttime hours) with a qualified supervisor, such as a parent, guardian, or certified instructor. The bill mandates a "PERMIT DRIVER" sticker on vehicles and adds verification that applicants are lawfully present in the U.S. before issuing temporary instruction permits. These changes directly affect minors aged 15-16 who are learning to drive.
