The penalties that will be placed on your driving permit or driving record will vary depending on what state your learner's permit is in and the accident took place. Each state has their own rules and laws for this sort of incident. For instance, if you are ticketed for an accident, or another minor traffic offense, in New York your permit would be suspended for 60 days. If you were subsequently found guilty of two other moving violations during a second permit probation period, you license/permit would be revoked for at least 6 months.
