What must a learner permit holder do while driving?

A learner permit holder must have the permit in their immediate possession while driving. This requirement ensures that the driver can present the permit when needed, such as during traffic stops or if requested by law enforcement. Having the permit readily available demonstrates compliance with the law and allows the driver to prove they are authorized to be on the road and are currently enrolled in the learning process to obtain a full driver's license.

In contrast, displaying the permit on the dashboard, keeping it in the glove compartment, or showing it only during traffic stops does not align with the need for immediate accessibility and may lead to complications if the permit cannot be presented promptly. Being able to show the permit at any moment is crucial for the learner's legal operation of the vehicle.
