I've never heard of a "school permit" before or an allowed route. What are these licenses and in what states are they available?
No such thing here in Maine. You can get a permit at 15.5 but must hold it for at least 6 months before taking the driving test. We have a graduated license here. To get a license if you are under 18, you must take driver's ed that includes 36 hours of classroom time and a minimum of 10 hours of instructor-supervised driving, and you must also log an additional 36 hours of driving supervised by a parent or other licensed driver over the age of 25. Drivers under age 18 cannot transport minors, except immediate family members, for a period of 6 months after getting their licenses and must be off the road between the hours of midnight and 5am (i think these are the hours) for the same 6 months.
WHEW! So tell me about the school permits!
