Graduated Driver Licensing laws in Idaho

Safety first for teen drivers

More freedom means bigger responsibility for your teen. Graduated Driver Licensing (GDL) laws are designed to help young drivers gain skills and experience before gaining full driving privileges. It's important to discuss these laws with your teen, as research has shown GDL laws can reduce crash rates among 16-year-old drivers by almost 43%1.
