Your house rules

B.C.'s Graduated Licensing Program has restrictions to help new drivers gain experience gradually, under conditions that expose them to less risk. But you may wish to set your own house rules based on your teen's driving experience, where you live and your family situation. Slowly increase driving privileges as your teen gains experience and you gain confidence in his abilities.

Click here to view background information on types of rules or restrictions to consider.

Click each of the following to view sample rules that might work for you and your teen during each of the driving stages.

• Learner (L) stage
• Novice (N) stage - first 6 months
• Novice (N) stage - remaining 18 months
• Full-privilege stage
