Montana Teen Driving Laws

Montana operates under a Graduated Drivers License (GDL) Law, which includes three stages: Permit Period, First-Year Restricted License, and Full Driver's License. 

  • Permit Period: At 15, Montana teens can apply for their learner's permit. With a learner's permit, teens must complete 50 hours of supervised driving with 10 hours being at night.
  • First-Year Restricted License: Teens may obtain a restricted license after completing their supervised driving requirements, passing a driving skills test, and holding their permit for 6 months. With this license, teens are restricted from driving between 11:00 PM and 5:00 AM. 
  • Full Driver's License: At 18, or after a year with a restricted license, teens will automatically have their license upgraded to a full license with full driving privileges.
