What Massachusetts requires
In Massachusetts, a learner permit is available starting at age 16. Massachusetts requires 30–40 hours of supervised driving before a teen can finish the supervised-driving stage of licensing.
The learner permit also has to be held for at least 6 months before a teen can move up to the next license stage in Massachusetts, so it's worth starting the log early.
A parent or guardian certifies the completed hours on the Class D or M Road Test Application (a separate parent signature); the Supervised Driving Log is the record behind that certification. There's no trip log to submit. Learner Log generates a print-ready Supervised Driving Log filled in from your logged drives, ready to keep and certify from. No hand-copying a paper tally.

Do I submit this log to Massachusetts?

How long must the Massachusetts permit be held?
The configured Massachusetts licensing path requires the permit to be held for at least 6 months. Confirm the current timing with the licensing agency before applying.
