On the road to a driver's license

Graduated Driver Licensing (GDL) laws, such as learner's permits, can help lower your teen's driving risks. Allstate advocates for all states to adopt these safety standards. Know the rules of the road in your state to help your teen learn safely.

What if your teen has a car accident?

If your teen gets in an accident with a learner's permit, the consequences are typically the same as in any other accident. If they were caught driving alone, they could get a ticket or have their permit suspended.
