HB 546 Pennsylvania House · 2025-2026 Regular Session

An Act amending Title 75 (Vehicles) of the Pennsylvania Consolidated Statutes, in licensing of drivers, further providing for learners' permits.

HB 546 creates a military exception for minors under 18 seeking a junior driver's license in Pennsylvania. It allows the state to count time spent with a learner's permit and driving practice hours completed in another state toward eligibility requirements. This applies specifically to minors who are family members of active duty military members living in Pennsylvania with them, hold a valid out-of-state learner's permit, and have received a Pennsylvania learner's permit. The Pennsylvania Department of Transportation must credit this prior experience if all conditions are met.
