Consequences for Violating GDL Restrictions
Teens ticketed and convicted of violating the restrictions of their GDL license will be referred for a driver assessment reexamination by the Michigan Department of State. Depending on the nature of the violation, the department may suspend the teen's license for up to a year. Any suspension action taken against the license may also significantly delay a teen's advancement through GDL.
Teens must be 90 days at-fault crash and violation-free before applying for a Level 2 license. For a Level 3 license, teens must be crash- and violation-free for 12 consecutive months before applying.
