What is a potential consequence of not completing the required supervised driving hours?

A potential consequence of not completing the required supervised driving hours is ineligibility for a full license. This is because the supervised driving hours are a crucial part of the learning process for new drivers, allowing them to gain the necessary skills and experience under the guidance of a licensed adult. The completion of these hours is typically a prerequisite for progressing from a learner’s permit to a full, unrestricted driver’s license.

If the learner does not fulfill this requirement, they may face delays or barriers in obtaining their full license, as they have not demonstrated the level of preparedness that is assessed during supervised driving practice. This structured practice helps ensure that new drivers are safe and competent behind the wheel before they are licensed to drive independently.

Meanwhile, options such as immediate license suspension or automatic cancellation of the learner's permit might not occur unless there are other violations or infractions. No consequence does not apply because not completing the required driving hours has a direct impact on license eligibility.
