Car permit · Licenses and permits

Under Ohio's temporary instruction permit rules, during which hours may a permit holder under 18 drive only with a parent, guardian or custodian beside them?

Correct answer: From midnight to 6 a.m.

Answer options

  1. AFrom 9 p.m. to 6 a.m.
  2. BFrom midnight to 6 a.m. Correct
  3. CThere are no hour-based limits
  4. DFrom 10 p.m. to 5 a.m.

Why

Ohio sets a special rule for the overnight hours: a permit holder under 18 who drives between midnight and 6 a.m. must have a parent, guardian or custodian, or an adult approved on a notarized BMV form, in the seat beside them. Once a permit holder turns 18 there is no time-of-day limit, though a licensed driver aged 21 or older must still ride along.
