Michigan Graduated License Program - MI Graduated Drivers License Requirements

The graduated drivers license system is a set of laws and requirements that apply to all driver license applicants who are under 18 years of age. The graduated license system in Michigan is similar to analogous programs currently utilized in other states around the country and it aims at reducing the number of traffic accidents among teenage drivers. The Michigan graduated drivers license system divides the licensing procedure into a number of stages, each step designed to teach the applicant a new set of skills or acquire additional experience before proceeding to the next level. The distinguishing trademark of the Michigan graduated license law is the fact that parents can affect how long their child stays at any given stage of the program. The state designates the minimum requirements for every stage, but the parents can extend these requirements if they find that the student has not gained enough proficiency on the current level.

Maine Permit Test

Unless you currently hold a valid drivers license issued by another state, you will have to take a learners permit test while applying for a Maine drivers license. The 2013 Maine permit test covers the state driving rules, traffic regulations, road signs and safe driving practices, including questions on effects of alcohol and drugs on driver's reaction times. In Maine, permit testing is conducted by the Bureau of Motor Vehicles on appointment-only basis, you cannot just turn up the test any time you want. You should note that approximately half of the first time applicants fail their Maine BMV permit test the first time they take it, so you should invest good time into preparing for the exam.
