During the first six months of licensure, what is the prohibited driving time?

  1. Midnight to 2 am

  2. Midnight to 5 am

  3. 10 pm to 5 am

  4. 11 pm to 6 am

The correct answer is: Midnight to 5 am

The prohibited driving time during the first six months of licensure is from midnight to 5 am. This restriction is in place to ensure that new drivers gain experience under safer conditions and to reduce the likelihood of accidents during late-night hours when driving risks are higher. During this period, new drivers are still developing their skills and are advised to avoid driving during times when they may be more prone to distractions or fatigue. The chosen time frame reflects the intention to limit driving during late hours, which statistics often show to be correlated with higher crash rates among inexperienced drivers. Options that extend the prohibited hours or start earlier do not align with the specific regulations aimed at promoting safer driving habits for new license holders.
