  1. Under New Jersey's GDL rules, a driver with a Special Learner's Permit or a Probationary License who is under 21 may not drive between which hours?

    Answer: 11:01 p.m. and 5:00 a.m.

    New Jersey GDL law prohibits driving between 11:01 p.m. and 5:00 a.m. for permit and probationary license holders under 21 to reduce risks associated with late-night driving.

  2. A GDL probationary license holder (under 21) is driving at 3:00 p.m. with their 18-year-old sibling and a 17-year-old friend in the car. The driver's parent is not in the vehicle. Is this permissible under NJ GDL passenger restrictions?

    Answer: No, because the driver can only have one passenger unless accompanied by a parent/guardian.

    Unless accompanied by a parent or guardian, a GDL driver under 21 is restricted to only one passenger. Passengers who are the driver's own dependents (children) are an exception, but siblings are not.

  3. Which of the following is a mandatory requirement for a vehicle being driven by a person with a GDL permit or probationary license in New Jersey?

    Answer: Displaying two red, reflective decals on the front and rear license plates.

    Kyleigh's Law requires all drivers under 21 with a permit or probationary license to display two red, reflective decals on the top left corner of their front and rear license plates. This allows law enforcement to identify GDL drivers.

  4. What is the standard penalty for a first-time violation of any GDL restriction, such as the driving curfew or passenger limits?

    Answer: A $100 fine.

    The penalty for violating any of the GDL restrictions, including curfew, passenger rules, or failure to display decals, is a $100 fine.

  5. Regarding the use of electronic devices, a GDL permit or probationary license holder:

    Answer: Is prohibited from using any hand-held or hands-free electronic devices.

    GDL drivers are strictly forbidden from using any electronic communication devices, including hand-held and hands-free cell phones, while driving.

  6. A 17-year-old with a probationary license needs to drive home from a religious event that ends at 11:30 p.m. What must they do to be exempt from the GDL curfew?

    Answer: Carry legible documentation from the religious institution on official letterhead.

    Exemptions for the GDL driving curfew are allowed for employment or religious activities, but the driver must carry proper documentation on letterhead from the employer or religious organization.
