What Maryland requires
In Maryland, a learner permit is available starting at age 15 (9 months after turning 15). Maryland requires 14–60 hours of supervised driving, including 3–10 at night before a teen can finish the supervised-driving stage of licensing.
The learner permit also has to be held for at least 9 months before a teen can move up to the next license stage in Maryland, so it's worth starting the log early.
The completed log is submitted on the New Driver & Coach Practice Guide (RD-006). Learner Log generates a print-ready New Driver & Coach Practice Guide (RD-006) filled in from your logged drives, ready to submit. No hand-copying a paper tally.
