What recent record must a Montana teen have before advancing from the instruction permit to the restricted-license step?
- No traffic violations or alcohol/drug offenses during the preceding six months
- No traffic violations during the preceding 30 days only
- No alcohol use at any time since birth
- No convictions after the teen turns 18
Answer: No traffic violations or alcohol/drug offenses during the preceding six months. Before advancing to the first-year restricted license step, the teen must have no traffic violations or alcohol or drug offenses during the preceding six months. The rule is a recent record requirement, not a 30-day window or a lifetime statement about alcohol. It also applies before the step change, so an offense during that period prevents advancement. Track the six-month period from the intended transition date.
