How the driving log works

  1. 1

    Start the timer

    Tap start when you pull out. Learner Lane times the drive while you focus on the road.

  2. 2

    Stop and add a note

    Tap stop when you park. Add what you practiced: the route, the weather, a new skill.

  3. 3

    Watch the hours add up

    Day and night hours are tracked separately toward your goal, so you always know what's left.

Day and night hours, tracked for you

Most permit programs ask for a share of your supervised driving to happen after dark. Learner Lane marks each drive as day or night from the time you started (you can change it), and shows separate progress for each. Your goal follows the region you choose, or you can set your own.

50 hours with 10 at night is a common requirement in the US, but it isn't universal. Some states and countries ask for more. Check your official driver handbook for the exact number.

Share your hours with your instructor

With the one-time Pass Pass you can send your driving log and your practice scores to your instructor or parent as a PDF. The log itself is always free.

What to practice during your supervised hours

Logging hours is the easy part. Making them count is harder. Use this checklist to make sure your practice covers what the road test will ask of you:

Between drives, play through the same situations in Learner Lane's 3D levels, such as 4-way stops, yellow lights, fog and stopped school buses, so you've already made the call before you meet it on the road.

Driving hours log FAQ

How many supervised driving hours do I need?

It depends on your state or country. 50 hours, including 10 at night, is a common requirement in the US, but rules vary and some places require more. Check your driver handbook, then set that goal in Learner Lane.

Is the Learner Lane driving log free?

Yes. The driving hours log is free and unlimited. You don't need the Pass Pass to log drives.

Can I add a drive I forgot to time?

Yes. You can add a past drive by entering when it started and how long it lasted, and mark it as day or night.

Does the DMV accept the Learner Lane log?

Learner Lane isn't an official form. Some states ask for their own signed log or a parent certification. Use Learner Lane to keep an accurate record as you go, then copy your totals onto the official form. With the Pass Pass you can also send your log and scores to your instructor as a PDF.

Where is my driving log stored?

On your device. Learner Lane has no accounts, so there's nothing to sign up for, and we can't see your log. Deleting the app deletes the log.
