Minnesota Drivers Education

Like many other states, Minnesota has implemented a graduated licensing system.

 

The graduated driver's license law (GDL) compliments the existing driver's license program by introducing a provisional license stage for young drivers. It is a multi-tiered program, designed to ease young novice drivers into the driving environment.

 

The Graduated Driver's License law provides for three phases of licensing for persons under 18 years of age. (See below.)
