I am an 18 year old driver with a provisional license in New Jersey. What is the penalty for driving with more than one person who are not from my residence?

In New Jersey you must observe the following requirements and restrictions while driving with a provisional license:

  • No driving between 12:01 a.m. and 5 a.m.
  • Passengers must be from your household. Only one additional person from outside your household is allowed in the vehicle
  • You can't use cell phones, hand held video games or any other hand held electronic device
  • Seat belts must be worn at all times
  • There are GDL hours-related exemptions for employment or religious reasons

According to the New Jersey Driver's Manual holders of GDL Permits or Provisional licenses may receive a $100 fine for violating any GDL conditions.

There could possibly be other penalties but you will need to contact the court listed on your citation or the New Jersey Motor Vehicle Commission to find out the exact penalties for driving with more than one passenger that is not from your residence.

car insurance commentsPeriodically the fine is increased. it is now more than 100. If the officer puts court appearance mandatory on the ticket, then you are hit with another $33.00 or whatever. I have heard the judge has discretion in meting out the punishment.
