Under Age 18 – Teen Driving Law

Ohio's Graduated Driver Licensing (GDL) system is required for all drivers under 18. The GDL has three phases:

1
Temporary Permit (TIPIC)
2
Probationary License
3
Full License

Before moving from Phase 1 (Temporary Permit) to Phase 2 (Probationary License), teens must complete:

  • Class D, 24-Hour Driver Education Course (this course)
  • 8 hours of behind-the-wheel training with a licensed instructor
  • 50 hours of supervised driving, including at least 10 hours of night driving, with a licensed driver age 21 or older
  • BMV 5791 Fifty-Hour Affidavit, completed and notarized
Important Note: You may enroll and begin the Class D, 24-Hour Driver Education Course without having a TIPIC. However, you must have your TIPIC by the time you complete the course.

Under 21 Driver Training (Ages 18–20)

Drivers between 18 and 20 must also complete all of the same requirements as under-18 drivers if:

  • You are a new driver under age 21, OR
  • You fail any portion of the driving test while under the age of 21

The requirements include:

  • Class D, 24-Hour Driver Education Course (this course)
  • 8 hours of behind-the-wheel training with a licensed instructor
  • 50 hours of supervised driving, including at least 10 hours of night driving, with a licensed driver age 21 or older
  • BMV 5791 Fifty-Hour Affidavit, completed and notarized

Non-Renewable / Non-Transferable (Limited Term) Licenses

Applicants for a Limited Term License must complete all of the same Driver Education requirements before scheduling their Driving Tests.

This applies to:

  • Temporary residents who are not U.S. citizens or permanent residents
  • Individuals with visas or temporary legal status

The requirements include:

  • Class D, 24-Hour Driver Education Course (this course)
  • 8 hours of behind-the-wheel training with a licensed instructor
  • 50 hours of supervised driving, including at least 10 hours of night driving, with a licensed driver age 21 or older
  • BMV 5791 Fifty-Hour Affidavit, completed and notarized
