Drivers licensed under the Graduated Driver License Program are restricted from operating a vehicle…?
- When any amount of alcohol has been consumed ✓
- With a blood alcohol concentration over .08
- Without a supervisor
- During daytime
Answer: A. When any amount of alcohol has been consumed
Drivers in the Graduated Licensing Program are restricted from driving after consuming any amount of alcohol, because the limit is zero blood alcohol content.
Why this is the answer
The handbook says that under the learner licence stage of the Graduated Licensing Program, the blood alcohol content must be zero. That means any alcohol before driving is not allowed, not just drinking enough to reach a higher limit. The program overview also lists zero blood alcohol content as a GLP condition. This supported answer is about the strict no-alcohol rule, not about a general over-.08 limit.
Why the other answers are wrong
- B. With a blood alcohol concentration over .08 — A blood alcohol concentration over .08 is a general limit, while the GLP rule shown in the handbook is zero blood alcohol content.
- C. Without a supervisor — A supervisor is required for the learner stage, but novice drivers in the GLP may drive unsupervised with restrictions.
- D. During daytime — The learner stage restricts driving hours to between 5 a.m. and midnight, so daytime driving is not itself prohibited.
Remember it
For the Graduated Licensing Program, remember zero: any alcohol means no driving.
