Under the new law, teens younger than 18 are required to
hold a learner's permit for six months before they can
schedule a road test to get a license. The law also
increases the number of training hours from 20 to 50,
with at least 15 hours of night-time driving; reduces
the number of non-family passengers younger than 21
allowed in the vehicle from two to one; and bans teens
from using any portable electronic devices, handheld or
not.
