Drive Right Academy - Hayden, ID - Coeur d'Alene, ID

After completing a Driver’s Education Program, students under the age of 17 must complete a supervised driving period of 50 hours (10 hours minimum at night) for a period of no less than 6 months with no traffic violations. The 6 month period will restart with any traffic violation or restriction violation. Please check Idaho DMV Manual for further GDL restrictions.

During the supervised driving period students may only drive with a valid licensed driver 21 years of age or older sitting in the seat beside the student (no other passengers are allowed in the front seat). Also all occupants must be seat belted or restrained by a child restraint. Students must have the permit in their immediate possession, as well as observe all laws regarding alcohol or other intoxicating substances.

After the supervised driving period students may apply for a class D driver’s license. They will be required to first pass a driving skills test, then Idaho’s general knowledge test and will be restricted to daylight only until age 16.
