New Law - Makes It Easier To Get A NC Driver's License
Date postedMay 8, 2023
Starting Monday, NC teenagers no longer have to wait an entire year to get their driver's license.
The General Assembly sent Cooper last month legislation addressing in part when a teen can move up from a learner's permit to what's called a limited provisional license and drive by themselves. State law has required a young person to hold the permit for at least 12 months, although lawmakers reduced it to six months temporarily during the COVID-19 pandemic to address delayed driver’s education classes.
