Teens rush to beat South Carolina license deadline
Fifteen year olds, led by Adam Iverson, crowded the Department of Motor Vehicles on Richland Avenue to beat a July 1 deadline as a new graduated license law rolls out. Beginning drivers must pass a driver education course and keep good attendance before a restricted license, with 90 days in a beginner permit and 17 as the age for an unrestricted license. The change shifts from automatic full licenses at 16 to last step conditions.
