teen drivers
Newly licensed adolescents
Teen drivers are young people, typically aged 15 to 19, who are learning to drive or have recently obtained a license.
The phrase usually appears in discussions of traffic safety, insurance rates, and driving restrictions: Teen drivers face higher premiums.
Laws often impose special conditions on teen drivers—curfews, passenger limits, or graduated licensing requirements.
