MAINE STUDY GUIDE
How to prepare for the Maine learner’s permit test
Maine BMV lists road rules, signs, pedestrian and bicycle safety, OUI awareness, and distracted-driving dangers among the written-test topics. Use the state Motorist Handbook as your main source, then use explanations here to find the rules that need more review.
Know learner-permit supervision
A Maine learner’s permit holder must drive with an eligible licensed operator age 20 or older who has held a valid license for at least two years and occupies the seat beside the driver. Permit holders may not interact with a phone while operating on a public way.
Plan the practice period
For applicants under 21, Maine generally requires a six-month permit period and 70 hours of supervised driving, including 10 hours after dark, before applying for a license. Check the BMV for applicable exceptions and documentation.
Follow intermediate-license limits
Drivers under 18 receive an intermediate license. During the restriction period, Maine limits non-family passengers, driving from midnight to 5 a.m., and phone use while driving. The BMV and current law describe the exceptions.
