Behind the Wheel Experience Requirements
- To drive on Nevada public roadways, you must be accompanied by an adult who is at least 21 years old, has a valid driver's license, and has at least one year of driving experience.
- Teen drivers under 18 must complete 50 hours of supervised behind-the-wheel experience.
- 10 hours of the total experience must be completed in darkness (night-time driving).
- Night-time driving experience is counted between 1/2 hour after sunset to 1/2 hour before sunrise.

- Your parent or guardian must sign the log and submit it with your application for a full license.
