				  permit and be placed in the computer for the six (6) month time requirement to

				  permit must hold that permit at least six (6) months. After the six (6) months
				  waiting period, they can go to the nearest driver license office and complete
				  the road test requirement to receive an intermediate driver license. The
				  intermediate driver license requirement is that the applicant can legally drive
				  between the hours of 6:00 a.m. and 10:00 p.m. without a licensed driver in the
				  vehicle with them. After 10:00 p.m. and until 6:00 a.m., they can drive only if
				  a licensed driver at least twenty-one (21) years of age is in the front seat
				  with them. The intermediate driver license shall be held for a period of six
				  (6) months or until the applicant reaches their seventeenth
				  (17th) birthday or whichever occurs first. After the
				  applicant has held the intermediate driver license the required amount of time,
				  or reaches the age of seventeen (17), then the applicant will receive an
				  unrestricted license. All applicants under the age eighteen (18) must have a
				  valid school attendance form in order to obtain an original driver license or
