What restrictions apply to new and teen drivers with a DC drivers license? Washington DC
Teens need to develop their driving skills. So, District of Columbia officials structured a system that's meant to give teen drivers the support they need while still allowing them to drive.
Here are the applicable driving restrictions for those with a learners permit and a provisional drivers license.
Additionally, you can't use a cell phone or other electronic device while driving. You can't drive a car for money (for example, pizza delivery). And, everyone in the vehicle you're driving must be wearing a seatbelt.
You're allowed to drive between 6 a.m. and midnight (or 11 p.m. depending on the day and time of year). Plus, you may drive to and from work, school activities, and religious or sports events, and a few other activities outside those hours. The DMV site contains the complete list of allowances.
And, everyone in the vehicle you're driving must be wearing a seatbelt.
