i guess a legal/driving question kinda

hey do you know what might happen if a cop catches you driving with only your permit, you know how if you have your permit and you are suppose to have a person 21 or over next to you? i think it might be different in every state but can you tell me what might happen if you are driving by yourself? like a fine? or what

my friend got caugth a couple times, all they did was fine him $50

o really?, how was your friend caught? only 50 dollars each time? it didnt go up?

My friend got a warning.

Yeah $50 every time, if you overdo it and thye catch more more than 3 times they wotn let u get ur license til ur 18

how did your friend get caught? you too ace? why is it that i ask 2 questions and you only answer one? wtf?? why do people never answer fully

It's Zelaron, what did you expect?

I thought if you had your permit, there would need to be a person that was 18 in the car with you, not someone who is 21. I could be mistaken though.

That part varies from state to state, as well as what relation you have to have with that person; in some states, they have to be a parrent or guardian, in others they don't care.

Here in florida you have to have some 21 or older in the passenger seat with a valid full drivers license. If you are pulled over for what ever reason, they give you a warning. After that its a $80 ticket. My friend was driving with his permit and got pulled over for driving with out his headlights and they gave him a warning for the license and a ticket for the headlights. The second time he got caught was for speeding, they gave him a speeding ticket and a $80 ticket for not having someone 21 or older next to him with a license. After a few times they will take you license away and you would have to wait till your 18, or go to court. Depends on your state. Seems most states are the same.

here in damn wisconsin if you have to drive with permit you need someone who have his driver lincence for 2 year. If you get caught you won't take they test driving and they will take the permit away from you until you 18 years old.

thank you livewire, basically the exact answer i was looking for, here in tx you have to have someone 21 or over with a year of driving experience next to you if you have a permit

Well, my friend is really small for his age so when the cop pulled him over, the cop was wondering what age my friend was. The cop thought he was a fucking thirteen year old.

Its alright a friend of mine is 17 and when he got pulled over the cop thought he was like ~10 ... he got soo pissed cause he forgot his licence at home....

omg crap that might happen to me..... cuz i look small!! nooooo

Nah you'll be ok. I was going to get a ride somewhere with my friend and I was like, "That's his brother, right?". He laughed. The guy is 18, but his face looks like he is 11, and he's below 5 feet....

actually, depending on where you live, you have to give the cop a reason to pull you over. Here, it is against the law to pull someone over just for looking too young. Usually, if like 10-14 year old kids go out joy riding, they drive like shit and will get grabbed.
