Salem Oregon Online Driver Education and Salem Oregon Licensing Procedures
Congratulations on starting the process of applying for your Salem Oregon Learner’s Permit or first Salem Oregon driver’s license. Salem Oregon has a Graduated Driver License Program for Salem Oregon teen drivers, and there are a few things to keep in mind to make sure that applying for your first Salem Oregon driver’s license goes as smoothly as possible. So let’s get started.
The Salem Oregon Instructional Permit or Salem Oregon Learner’s Permit
When you turn 15, you can finally apply for an Salem Oregon Instruction Permit, otherwise known as an Salem Oregon Learner’s Permit. In order to apply, you must:
- Be between the ages of 15-17 and a resident of Salem Oregon
- Provide proper identification and proof of a Social Security Number
- Provide proof of school enrollment
- Surrender your Salem Oregon Identification card (if you have one)
- Bring your parent/guardian to sign your application form
- Bring the correct license fee
Once you’re ready, head on down to your local Salem Oregon Department of Motor Vehicles (DMV) with your parent or guardian and submit your application. Then, you’ll have to take a vision test, as well as the class C knowledge test. If you survive, then congratulations. You’ve just earned your Salem Oregon Instruction Permit, which is valid for 24 months from the date it was issued.
Remember, you must practice driving with your parent, guardian, driving instructor, or licensed driver who is at least 21, has a valid driver license, and is sitting beside you. All passengers must wear seatbelts, and be sure to carry your Salem Oregon Instruction Permit with you at all times.
Once you’ve held your Salem Oregon Learner’s Permit for 6 months and have met a few more requirements, you’ll be ready for the next step in the Salem Oregon Graduated License Program, the Salem Oregon Provisional License.
The Salem Oregon Provisional Driver License and Salem Oregon Full Driver License
You can apply for your Salem Oregon Probationary Driver License once you’ve held your Salem Oregon Temporary Instruction Permit for 6 months and have met a few requirements in addition to the identification requirements listed in the Salem Oregon Instruction Permit section:
- Hold your Salem Oregon Instruction Permit for at least 6 months in good standing
- Complete 50 hours of behind-the-wheel driving in an Salem Oregon approved traffic education safety school or...
- Complete 100 hours of driving practice with a parent/guardian or licensed driver over 21
- Pass a Safe Driving Practice Test
- Make an appointment for the dreaded Salem Oregon road test
- Be able to provide proof of insurance on the car you’ll use to take the test.
- Bring the appropriate testing fees
If you’ve completed these requirements, then make your appointment and head on down to your local Salem Oregon DMV. Then you’ll have to take the dreaded Salem Oregon driving test! If you pass, then congratulations. You’ve just earned your Salem Oregon Provisional License. However you’ll still have to drive with a few restrictions for the time being
Salem Oregon Teen Driver License Restrictions and Penalties
There are a few restrictions for your Salem Oregon Provisional Driver License that you should be aware of.
For the first 6 months:
No passengers under the age of 20 (unless they’re family)
No driving between midnight and 5AM unless traveling:
- Between home and work
- To a school event
- For employment purposes
- While accompanied by a licensed driver who is at least 25 years old
- Also, no driving while using a cell phone (this includes hands-free devices)
For the second 6 months:
- No more than 3 passengers under 20 (who are not immediate family)
- No driving between midnight and 5AM unless driving:
- Between home and work
- To a school event
- For employment purposes
- While accompanied by a licensed driver who is at least 25 years old
- And again, no driving while using a cell phone (this includes hands-free devices)
However, once you turn 18, you can finally apply for your Salem Oregon Unrestricted License. Then, these restrictions are removed. Freedom!
Salem Oregon Auto Insurance Financial Responsibility Laws
Once you receive your Salem Oregon Learner’s Permit or Salem Oregon Intermediate Driver license, you’re ready to drive--or are you? Not quite yet, because Salem Oregon drivers are required by law to be covered by liability insurance. The minimum liability insurance coverage is:
- $25,000 bodily injury for one person
- $50,000 bodily injury two or more people
- $10,000 for property damage per accident
You’ll also need:
Personal Injury Protection:
- $15,000 Per Person Per Accident
Uninsured Motorist Coverage:
- $25,000 – Bodily Injury Per Person
- $50,000 – Bodily Injury Per Accident
If you are in an accident and found to be driving without Salem Oregon mandatory liability insurance, your Salem Oregon license could be suspended.
Salem Oregon Drunk Driving, Cell Phone, and Text Messaging Laws
As an Salem Oregon teen driver, it’s important for you to learn the Salem Oregon drunk driving, cell phone, and text messaging laws. Like most state, Salem Oregon has a Zero Tolerance Law for underage drinking, and if you are convicted of an Salem Oregon DUI or Salem Oregon DWI, you face addition penalties to those listed below.
Upon your first conviction of an Salem Oregon DUI, you’ll face the following penalties:
- Jail from 48 hours to 1 year, minimum
- Community Service 80 hours
- Fine of $1,000, minimum
- DUI Fees $300 minimum
- License Suspension of 1 year
- Ignition Interlock Device installation
- Drug/Alcohol Treatment Program
- Participation in Victim-Impact Panel Program Required
And of course, further Salem Oregon DWI and DUI convictions will result in increased jail time, community service, fines, and Salem Oregon license suspension or even Salem Oregon license revocation.
Currently, Salem Oregon teen drivers are prohibited from using cell phones while driving, even with hands-free devices.
