In just weeks teenage drivers in the state will have some new rules of the road.

Public Act 268 goes into effect March 30.  The new law changes how many people can be in the car with a teenage driver and  the time the teenager can be on the road.

The bill would amend the Michigan Vehicle Code to prohibit a driver with a level 2 graduated licensing status (the first year of driving independently) from doing either of the following:

-- Operating a motor vehicle in Michigan from 10 p.m. to 5 a.m. (rather than from midnight to 5 a.m. as currently proscribed), unless accompanied by a parent or legal guardian or a licensed driver over the age of 21 designated by the parent or legal guardian, or except when going to or from employment.

-- Operating a motor vehicle carrying more than one passenger who were under 21 unless the passengers were members of the driver's immediate family or the driver were traveling to or from school or a school-sanctioned event.
