When you get your Maine permit, who can you drive with?

A learner's permit allows teens to drive only with a licensed driver who is at least 20 years old and has had a valid license for at most two years. Before they can be granted an intermediate license, teens must practice driving for 70 hours, 10 of which must be at night.



So, who is allowed to drive with a permit for driving?

A learner's permit/license holder may only drive if accompanied by a parent or legal guardian licensed to do so.

Second, is it legal to drive in Maine under a Massachusetts learner’s permit? A valid learner permit issued in his/her home country can be used to legally drive in Maine, provided the person is at least 16 and follows all restrictions.

This is why you might be wondering, when can you drive in Maine with a permit?

Permittees aged 18-20 can drive between 12am and 5am without restriction. They are also not required to complete a driver education course. However, they must have a supervisor with them in the car. A two-year provisional period applies to the 18- to 20-year old's first license.

How can I obtain a Maine learners permit?
