What is a restriction for drivers in the "Initial" phase?

In the Initial phase of a driver’s licensing program, a significant restriction is the limitation on nighttime driving. This rule is implemented to enhance safety for novice drivers who may have less experience operating a vehicle in low-light conditions. Night driving can pose unique challenges, such as reduced visibility and increased likelihood of encountering intoxicated drivers, making it imperative to limit exposure for those still developing their driving skills.

The restrictions typically aim to protect both the novice driver and others on the road by allowing them to gain experience during safer daytime driving hours. Additionally, this phase often includes other restrictions that address potential distractions or risks, but nighttime driving is the most prominent and widely recognized limitation during this initial period.
