Summary of New Jersey Graduated Licensing Law
(detailed chart bottom of this page)
New Jersey has a three stage licensing process for minors.
  1. Student Learner Permit (at least age 16) We recommend our Driver Ed in a Box® to use during the Learner stage. Shows the parent how to teach collision-free driving habits and provides unique teaching tools (mirrors, checklists, videos, audio instruction series, etc.).
  2. Provisional License (at least age 17)
  3. Driver’s License (at least age 18)
Teens want to know how to stay out of collisions!
Today’s teens do not just want their license; they want to be good collision-free drivers. They know the risks. Virtually all have friends who got a license and were involved in a collision in the first four weeks. Most teens have lost classmates due to fatal collisions.
Driver Ed in a Box® Certificate of Completion!
Choose Interactive CD-Rom Version or Text Version.
Teens want to know "why" the things you ask them to do will work. When you complete the full course you get a Certificate of Completion. Take this to your insurance agent. It varies state by state and by insurance company, but you may receive an insurance discount.
Using the full course your teen will learn why each step is important while learning the collision-free HABITS that make you a better driver. The full course also includes a section on Social & Consumer Issues. This includes how alcohol and drugs as well as emotions and attitude affect driving performance. Also covered are vehicle ownership (buying, leasing, insuring, and maintaining).
Over 15,000 students have used Driver Ed in a Box®.
  "Excellent help to make safe thorough driving instruction doable for parents. Our son enjoyed it and was motivated to learn." - Parent, Cranford, New Jersey
  "My in-vehicle training experience has gone well, thanks to this superb program. The video tapes were the most helpful. It was very effective to see the lessons in action." - Student  
"The audio (series is) very useful. Most parents are clueless how to teach driving. The certified instructor in New Jersey only has 6 hours behind the wheel: What can you do in 6 hours?" - Ruth Gervat, Westwood, New Jersey
