I think with a permit the other driver has to be awake and riding shotgun, not sleeping in the rear. Just hope you don't get pulled over while he's in the back asleep. :roll:

IF you have a permit only, then YES, another driver with a VAILD Class A MUST be in the jump seat and awake well you drive.


nrvsreck you are right.

would not be in your best interest to get stopped get a ticket just starting out your career with a permit

Nor would it be in your buddies best interest either.

If you only have a permit then a driver liscensed for that type of vehicle must be awake and in the front passenger seat at all times while you are driving.

Also, you the trainee will be logging Drive time in your log book and the lisc driver must log On Duty Not Driving in his log book.
