What every
parent needs
to know
Road Rules
• It is illegal for learner’s permit and
intermediate license holders to use any
hand-held electronic device while operating
a motor vehicle, except in a life-threatening
emergency.
• It is illegal for a person under age 21
to drive after consuming any alcohol.
Even prescription medicines or over-the-
counter medications taken in the proper
dosages can impair you as much as alcohol
or illegal drugs. Driving while impaired
may result in the driver losing their
license for at least 6 months, payment
of court fines, community service, a
treatment program, or a combination
of any of these.
• Every driver and front seat passenger must
wear a seat belt at all times while the vehicle
is being operated. No seat belt use means the
driver can be stopped and ticketed without
any other offense.
