Restricted beginner authorizations
Provisional licenses are permits granted with conditions or limitations, typically as a step toward full licensing.
Most commonly refers to driver's licenses issued to new or young drivers with restrictions on nighttime driving, passengers, or phone use: She can't drive past midnight on her provisional license.
The term applies broadly to any conditional authorization—professional licenses pending final certification, business permits awaiting inspection completion.
