Do i have to get a separate one?? answer please if you know?

Question

I live in california and have a provisional license (im 16)

if i have a note from the school signed saying that i am able to drive my boyfriend to and from school and school verified activities, i know i can drive him to things

we have our prom coming up and (it wouldnt get out until midnight) i was wondering if i need to get a separate note saying that i can be driving him (or myself for that matter) that late at night, as im not supposed to be driving between 11pm and 5am

do i need to get a separate note or is the one from the school already sufficient?

Answer 1

Hmm, I'd think that the note you have could probably get you by, but I'd get another one, just to be safe.

Answer 2

I believe if the school already signed a note and know that you have a provisional license then yes but to be safe you should ask your principle or whoever is in charge about it first.

Answer 3

Separate! But I think JD in Fla is more right!

Answer 4

If the law states you can't drive after 11 PM, no note from a school is going to change State Law.

If you can save the money to do so, why not hire a Limo for the night and make it a first class event?

Answer 5

school activities are an allowable excuse for this law.  The prom is included, but that means you go straight home afterwards, no going to denny's or anywhere else.  If you get stopped at 2am, it is reasonable to say that you were not coming from the prom, you were s******g around.  Then you would be outside of the law.

You do not need a separate note.

Please don't be a statistic on you prom night either.  Be smart and responsible.
