AI Summary

  • Expands restrictions on provisional driver's licenses (ages 16-17) to apply at any time during the provisional period, rather than just the first 12 months after issuance.

  • Prohibits provisional license holders from driving between 11 p.m. and 5 a.m. or transporting passengers under 20 years old at any time, unless accompanied by an authorized driver or under specified exceptions (medical, school, employment, family necessity).

  • Changes violation penalties to community service (8-24 hours) or fines ($35-$50) depending on offense number, with violations not counted as violation points on driving record.

  • Specifies that convictions under this section cannot be disclosed as violation points and driving privilege restrictions remain in effect even after the driver turns 18.

  • Declares no state reimbursement is required for local agencies or school districts, as costs result from creating or modifying crime/infraction penalties under state law.
