AI Summary

  • Defines "primary driving supervisor" as a person who supervises the majority of supervised driving time for an instruction permit holder under age 18 and meets applicable supervision requirements.

  • Increases required supervised driving hours from 30 to 40 total hours (with 15 nighttime hours minimum) for provisional license applicants, or allows 10 additional hours as an alternative.

  • Requires applicants to submit a supervised driving log identifying dates and lengths of each driving trip, signed by the primary driving supervisor, instead of certification by the parent or guardian approving the application.
