Driving In MD on Out-of-State Learner's Permit

[ZARA]

The title allows for the MD MVA to issue learners permits.

No one needs any auto info to get a learner's permit.

And yes- 21 or older..typo

 

[MMDad]

You can have both.

As long as you have a MD permit, you can drive in MD. There is nothing in the law that specifically authorizes an out of state permit holder to drive in MD.

No one needs any auto info to get a learner's permit.

I don't understand your point.

There is nothing in the law that specifically authorizes an out of state permit holder to drive in MD.

If there is no law, you can't get in trouble for it.

 

[MMDad]

If there is no law, you can't get in trouble for it.

The law says you must have a license unless specifically authorized. There is no specific authorization for an out of state permit.

 

[ZARA]

I don't understand your point.

You said title info had to be provided to get a learner's permit. No it does not.

 

[ZARA]

The law says you must have a license unless specifically authorized. There is no specific authorization for an out of state permit.

lmao You are just pissy today aren't you? Well, I hope your day gets better dear. I'm off to play star wars with the boys.

I know it will make you feel better to have the last word. I'm out.

The title is the portion of MD law that deals with licensing and permits. I quoted the law exactly as written - I did not add anything to it.

No, I'm just quoting the law. Pissy would be if I called someone pissy over the discussion. I have not insulted anyone or implied anything about them.

I didn't say it invalidates it, I said it does not recognize it.

The law does require a license. A permit is not a license. In order for the permit to be valid, there would have to be something in either MD law or MVA regs declaring it so.

Wrong! Maryland law states that a permit is a license.

§ 11-116. Driver's license


"Driver's license" means any license or permit to drive a motor vehicle that is issued under Title 16 of this article.

For an out of state license to not be recognized the law must spell that out.

The only law on the books that doesn't recognize a learner's permit deals with operating a motorized passenger scooter in Ocean City. (Transportation Article § 25-102.2)
