During the JOL probationary period, what is one specific restriction that typically applies?

During the JOL (Junior Operator License) probationary period, the specific restriction that applies is the limitation regarding passengers. This rule is established to ensure safety and responsible driving behavior among newly licensed drivers. The goal is to minimize distractions and the potential for risky behavior that can arise when young drivers have multiple passengers in the vehicle.

The restriction allows for only a limited number of passengers, typically one passenger under the age of 18 who is not a family member, during the probationary period. This rule is designed to reduce the likelihood of crashes involving new drivers by limiting peer influences that may encourage reckless driving.

Understanding this passenger restriction is crucial for JOL holders to avoid penalties, including suspensions or fines, and to foster safe driving practices as they gain experience behind the wheel.
