Answer: (B)

A Junior Operator License (JOL) in Massachusetts is typically valid for 1 year before the holder must transition to a full license. This 1-year period is designed to provide new drivers with enough time to gain experience behind the wheel under certain restrictions. During this time, JOL holders are subject to various limitations to help ensure their safety and the safety of others on the road. Once the 1-year period is completed, and if the driver has met all prerequisites, including adhering to the state’s regulations, they can apply for a full, unrestricted driver's license.
