What is the minimum number of supervised driving hours required for teens under Joshua’s Law?

Under Joshua's Law, the minimum number of supervised driving hours required for teens is 40 hours. This is designed to ensure that new drivers gain adequate experience behind the wheel before they receive their full driving privileges. The concept behind this requirement is to provide teens with sufficient time to practice various driving scenarios and enhance their skills in a controlled environment, ultimately aiming to reduce accidents and increase overall road safety. Substantial driving practice during this formative period equips them with the necessary skills to handle different driving conditions and to make better decisions on the road.
