Young drivers would have to get off the roads earlier under a proposal passed Monday by the Senate Transportation Committee, according to a report in the Daily Record.
The report said the bill, which changes the name of provisional driver’s licensees to “probationary,” moves up the off-the-roads curfew to 11 p.m.from midnight for drivers under 21 in the six-month period after receiving their license. The curfew change is one of the recommendations from the Teen Driving Study Commission report, which was released this past March in response to the growing number of accidents involving young drivers.
