Kyleigh's Law Info

Kyleigh's Law at-a-glance:

The new law applies to all drivers with a Special Learner’s Permit or first-year provisional or probationary licenses. Virtually all 17-year-olds, and many 18-year-olds, will be affected by the changes, which also apply to 19- and 20-year-olds if they are in their first year of their driver’s license. Here the basics of the law:
• These restrictions are lifted after new drivers complete a full year of driving without any infractions. They then can get a "Basic" driver’s license with no restrictions.
• Permit and provisional drivers must display red decals on their license plates, which can be purchased for $4 a decal at Motor Vehicle Agencies.
• The nighttime curfew for drivers will be 11 p.m. instead of midnight. Exemptions exist for work or religious practices.
• Only one passenger is permitted in the vehicle, instead of the prior unlimited number of household members plus one unrelated passenger. However, if a parent or guardian is a passenger, then more passengers are permitted.
• New drivers are still prohibited from using any cell phone, and clarifies that even hands-free devices are not allowed.
• Drivers licensed before the law changes must abide by the new rules.
