how long should a teenager keep their permit before getting their drivers license?

Answer 1

as long as it takes until the adults with more experience feel that the teenagers takes driving as a serious privilege instead of an assumption because of age.

Answer 2

They should have to keep it for at least 6 months, and then after they pass the driving test to get their license, they should only have a probationary license for the first 6 months. There should be imposed restrictions such as only 1 non-related passenger in the car, or after dark having to be accompanied by a licensed driver over 21, stuff like that.

Answer 3

My daughter had hers for over a year before she went to take the driving test. She just wanted to make sure she was ready, and I was not going to push her. She got her drivers license just before she turned 19.

Answer 4

I'd say 6mo to a year. It helps you gain experience and the confidence you need to pass the test :)

Answer 5

the full 6 months

Answer 6

The law is six months. However, teens take longer, maybe a year.
