Question:

Hi, I'm 17 years old and I usually carpool with 3 to 4 other friends, about my age, to and from Mock Trial meetings, I was wondering, with respect to new laws, if this is legal or not? I have a class G drivers liscence, I'm sure that means more to you than to me.



Answer:

For the first six months, a teen with a graduated driver license cannot drive between the hours of midnight to 05:00 A.M. unless:
        1.  A parent or legal guardian who has a valid driver license is sitting in the front passenger seat, or
        2.  The teen is driving to or from a sanctioned school sponsored activity, sanctioned religious activity, place of employment, or family emergency.

A teen with a Graduated Driver License shall not drive a motor vehicle containing more than one passenger under the age of 18 on a public highway, unless:
        1.  The passengers are the teen driver’s siblings, or
        2.  The teen driver is accompanied by a parent or legal guardian with a valid driver license and occupies the front passenger seat.
