Fine: house, high school. User Name. Remember Me. Recently, a father contacted me by email to ask about the issue. According to New York law , a non-resident teen between the ages of 16 and 18 is required to abide by that state's graduated driver license GDL restrictions, even if they differ from the GDL restrictions in the teen's home state.
I checked in with representatives of both state highway safety offices as well as reviewed each state's GDL law and confirmed his findings. First, he explained that since states have reciprocal licensing agreements, a teen holding a graduated driver license may drive in other states.
However, the teen is required to adhere to both the GDL restrictions of the state in which he's licensed as well as the state in which he's driving. And therein lies the rub -- GDL restrictions can and do vary by state. For example, a teen holding a probationary license in New Jersey , may not drive between p.
If that same teen drives in New York, he must be off the road even earlier -- 9 p. Pennsylvania's nighttime driving restriction mirrors New Jersey's, but the passenger restriction -- no more than one under 18 years of age for the first 6 months -- doesn't sync with New Jersey's -- no more than one regardless of age for the entire 12 month period.
When you factor in age requirements, it's even more problematic. New Jersey doesn't allow a teen younger than 16 to obtain a learner's permit or younger than 17 to hold a probationary license.
Every other state allows a teen, after fulfilling the supervised practice driving requirements, to obtain a probationary license referred to as an intermediate or junior license in other states at age 16 and half or younger. Parents and teens need to do their homework before a GDL license holder drives in another state.
That means verifying GDL requirements, which cover licensing, training and testing, as well as the GDL restrictions in advance of taking to the road.
This is essential; if a GDL holder is stopped by a law enforcement official and isn't in compliance with that state's GDL restrictions, the officer has the discretion to issue a warning or citation for the violation.
