Why Massachusetts families use it

Thousands of drives logged and counting.

Automatic hour tracking

Counted and remaining totals update as you log — no manual math or paper tally.

Day & night, tracked separately

Massachusetts asks for 40 hours — we track both so nothing's a surprise at the end.

Magic-link login

No passwords. Secure access from any device with a simple email link.

Free to use

Logging and tracking are free. No subscription, no surprises.

Nothing to download

Works right in your browser on any phone or computer — no app store, no install.

How it works

1. Log each supervised drive in a few taps (day or night).
2. Watch your progress toward Massachusetts's 40 hours.
3. When you hit the requirement, a parent or guardian certifies your hours on the Supervised Driving Log — there's no trip log to submit.

What Massachusetts requires

In Massachusetts, a learner permit is available starting at age 16. Massachusetts requires 40 hours of supervised driving before a teen can finish the supervised-driving stage of licensing.

A parent or guardian certifies the completed hours on the Supervised Driving Log — there's no trip log to submit.

Requirements change; always confirm the current rules with your state's licensing agency or the official form.

Massachusetts certifies the hours rather than submitting a log — see submit vs. certify.

Keep an accurate record of your teen's supervised hours without a clipboard.

Oversee practice drives and see progress at a glance from any device.

Driving instructors

Coordinate with families on the hours a student still needs.

Why not paper?

Totals add up automatically — no arithmetic errors at the end.
Nothing to lose — your log lives in your account, not the glovebox.
Day and night hours are tracked separately, the way Massachusetts counts them.
A clean, always-available record you can reference whenever you need it.

Common mistakes

Adding up the running total by hand. A paper tally is easy to miscount; the app keeps the math for you.
Losing the paper log. Months of practice can disappear with one misplaced sheet — your entries stay in your account.
Waiting until the end to record everything. Log each drive as it happens so the dates and totals stay accurate.

Frequently asked questions

Do I submit this log to Massachusetts?

No. Massachusetts has a parent or guardian certify your completed hours on the Supervised Driving Log. Driving Log is your private record for tracking them — there's no trip log to turn in.

Is this affiliated with the Massachusetts licensing agency?

No. Driving Log is an independent tracking tool, not affiliated with any state DMV.

Is it free?

Yes — logging and tracking your Massachusetts hours are free, with no subscription.

Does the supervising driver have to be a parent?

Not always — the supervisor has to meet Massachusetts's licensed-driver rules, which often include a parent, guardian, or another qualifying adult. Confirm the specifics with your licensing agency.

Can I add drives from earlier dates?

Yes. Back-fill earlier supervised drives as long as the date isn't in the future.

Can I edit a drive after saving it?

Yes. Update the date, minutes, day/night, or supervisor at any time.

Can I use it on my phone?

Yes. Driving Log runs in any mobile browser — there's nothing to install.

How do I know when I'm done?

Driving Log shows your counted and remaining hours as you log, so you can see exactly when you've met Massachusetts's 40-hour requirement.

What happens to my data?

We store only your email and the driving entries you add — no ad, cross-site, or behavioral trackers, and no tracking cookies. For analytics we use anonymized, server-side-only visit counting, with no personal information stored.
