Drivers with a beginner's permit cannot drive between which times?

  1. Midnight and 6 am

  2. 6 pm and 8 am

  3. 10 pm and 5 am

  4. 8 pm and 6 am

The correct answer is: Midnight and 6 am

Drivers with a beginner's permit in South Carolina are restricted from driving between midnight and 6 a.m. This restriction is in place to ensure that novice drivers are not on the road during late-night hours, which can be more dangerous due to reduced visibility and lower traffic volume. These hours are considered a high-risk period for inexperienced drivers, as they may not yet have developed the skills needed to handle the challenges posed by driving at night. The goal of this regulation is to enhance road safety for both the beginner drivers and other road users.
