driver’s permit

A driver’s permit, often called a learner's permit, is an official document that allows new drivers to learn and practice driving under specific conditions before obtaining a full driver’s license. Typically issued to individuals who are learning to drive, it usually requires that a licensed adult accompany the permit holder while driving. The permit ensures that new drivers gain supervised experience while adhering to certain restrictions, such as limits on driving hours or passenger types, enhancing safety for both the learner and the public. It is a step toward demonstrating driving competence and responsibility before earning full driving privileges.
