Driver’s Education designed with you in mind

When teens are first learning to drive, they are highly receptive to important messages about the dangers of unsafe driving and driving while intoxicated. That is why it is so important for parents to get involved at this initial stage to ensure proper and thorough education to help set ground rules and instill good driving habits, as their teen takes on the responsibility of operating a motor vehicle.

So what are we waiting for?

Middletown Connecticut Instructional Permit or Middletown Connecticut Learner Permit

When you turn 16, you can finally apply for a Middletown Connecticut instructional permit, otherwise known as a Middletown Connecticut learner permit. You'll need to gather these documents in order to apply for your Middletown Connecticut learner's permit:

After you have had your Middletown Connecticut learner permit for 6 months (or 4 months if you've taken a Middletown Connecticut approved driver education course), you'll have the green light to apply for the Middletown Connecticut license exam.

Your First Middletown Connecticut Driver's License

In order to apply for your first Middletown Connecticut provisional driver license, you'll need to do the following:

  • Complete 40 hours of on-road practice as well as a driver education course (see last paragraph, "Middletown Connecticut Online Driver Education")
  • Bring a birth certificate

  • Bring one other form of proper identification

  • Bring the license fee of $66 to $77, depending on how many years the license is valid for
  • Bring your learner's permit (to be surrendered)
  • Provide a valid passport-sized photo

Then, if you can survive the following tests:

  • Vision test, in which you must have 20/40 vision (with or without glasses)
  • Written test, in which you must score at least an 80%
  • The dreaded road test!

Congratulations, you've just earned your first Middletown Connecticut driver license!

Restrictions and Penalties Middletown Connecticut Teen Driver License

Unfortunately, as a newer driver, not every kind of driving will be open to you just yet. There are several restrictions you need to keep in mind regarding your Middletown Connecticut learner's license or Middletown Connecticut driver's license.

Middletown Connecticut Permit Restrictions: With a Middletown Connecticut learner's permit, you cannot drive unless accompanied by:

  • a parent or guardian (who must have a driver's license)
  • a licensed instructor
  • someone 20 or older with a valid license for at least four years (holding no suspensions).

Middletown Connecticut Provisional License Restrictions:

  • first six months: you must drive with parents/guardians or licensed driver over 20
  • second six months: you may drive with members of your immediate family
  • you may not drive a bus or any vehicle that requires a public passenger permit
  • you may not drive between midnight and 5AM unless going to an approved school or church activity, or for emergencies
  • you may not drive while talking on a cell phone (no exception for hands-free)

If you have your Middletown Connecticut provisional license and you're 16 or older you cannot drive a vehicle between 1:00AM and 5AM unless the following conditions are met:

  • You're accompanied by a parent, legal guardian, or person over 21 who has at least 1 year of driving experience
  • You are driving because of an emergency
  • You are an emancipated minor
  • You're going to or from your workplace, a school sponsored or religious event

The whole point of driver education is to give you the tools to acquire good driving habits. If you abuse the privilege of driving, you may not have your license for very long! Each time your license is suspended, there is a restoration fee of $125. Your Middletown Connecticut driver license may be suspended under the following circumstances:

  • you use your cell phone while driving (texting or talking) - 30 day suspension
  • you speed - 60 day suspension
  • you drive recklessly - 6 month suspension
  • you street race - 6 month suspension

Middletown Connecticut Auto Insurance Middletown Connecticut Financial Responsibility Laws

So you finally have your Middletown Connecticut drivers license. Think you're ready for the road? Hold your horses, your vehicle must be covered by liability insurance. If you ever get caught driving without proof of Middletown Connecticut mandatory liability insurance, you could be fined. Worse, if you are involved in an accident and cannot provide proof of insurance, your Middletown Connecticut learner's permit or Middletown Connecticut provisional license will be suspended.

The minimum required coverage is $20,000 for personal injury and $40,000 for total injury, and $10,000 for property damage.

Middletown Connecticut Drunk Driving, Cell Phone, and Text Messaging Laws

As a new Middletown Connecticut driver, nothing is more important than for you to understand the Middletown Connecticut drunk driving, cell phone, and text messaging laws. In Middletown Connecticut, the standard of DUI is lower for teens, and you only need to have a BAC of 0.02 (instead of 0.08) to be convicted. Upon your first conviction of a Middletown Connecticut DUI, you face the following penalties:

  • your Middletown Connecticut license will be suspended for 3 months
  • a $500 to $1000 fine
  • 100 hours of community service
  • mandatory alcohol education programs that adults face for DUI convictions

And of course, further Middletown Connecticut DUI convictions will result in increased jail time, community service, fines, and Middletown Connecticut license suspension or even Middletown Connecticut license revocation.

A distracted driver is a dangerous driver. Thus, Middletown Connecticut bans teen drivers from using a cell phone or text messaging while driving. As tempting as it may be to call or text friends and family, driving while using a cell phone carries a 30 day license suspension and a $125 license restoration fee plus court fines. A second conviction carries a 6 month suspension.

Middletown Connecticut Online Driver Education

Anyone younger than 18 must provide proof of completion for a Middletown Connecticut approved driver's education course including at least 40 hours of behind the wheel training and 22 hours of home-based classroom training. If you take a Middletown Connecticut approved driver's education course, you will be able to take your license road test 2 months earlier. The Middletown Connecticut DMV maintains a list of the many Middletown Connecticut approved driver education courses .
