Rhode Island has a graduated licensing system for persons under age eighteen (18) wishing to drive a motor
vehicle. The three levels of the graduated licensing system are : limited instructional permit, limited
provisional license and full operator's license.

Rhode Island's Graduated Licensing System

Level One: Limited Instructional Permit - The Limited Instructional Permit is a preliminary license for persons learning to drive who have passed the computerized test.
The computerized test questions are based on the motor vehicle laws and the rules of the road. Applicants
should study the driver's manual to prepare for the test. The test is available in other languages upon request.

Level Two: Limited Provisional License - You must go to the DMV to get your Limited Provisional License after you have passed your driving test. You must do this before your Limited Instructional Permit expires.
If you fail your driving test, you must call or visit a DMV office to schedule another driving test. You will not
be allowed to re-take the test immediately. You must wait at least 30 days before your next appointment. If an
appointment is not available before your permit expires, you may need to take the written test again and obtain
a new permit. You are not eligible to take the written test until your present permit has expired.

Level Three: Full Operator's License - With a Full Operator's License, you may drive without restrictions concerning time of driving and supervision. You are still required to follow all the other rules of the road, including those applying to safety belts and child restraint systems.
