Anyway, to stay on topic, yes, you can be ticketed in a school parking lot, just as if you drive a vehicle to school and it's on school grounds, many schools reserve the right to have a random search. If you are insured and have a licensed rider though, it should be all right, as stated before.
The first step in learning to drive is getting a learner permit or licence. For this, your child needs to be 16 years old – except in the ACT, where it's 15 years and 9 months. In other states, your child must also pass a written or computer-based test on road rules. Some states also have an eyesight test.
Question: Can the police ticket you for not stopping at a stop sign, speeding or other such traffic violations while driving on a privately owned roadway such as a parking lot? Answer: That's a great question, and there's more to it than just a simple yes or no.

Under vehicle code 14601, this means you may be subject to imprisonment in a county jail for no less than five days and no more than six months and a fine of no less than $300 and no more than $1000.
Yes you can, although not in public roads. You can in private roads, your own farm and private roads where you are the only person using. Otherwise, you need a permit so you may operate a vehicle in public roads or highways. A driver's license is not simply a permit that allows you to operate a vehicle.
Driving without a license is usually a misdemeanor offense, not a felony. For a first-time offender, the fine for driving without a license normally range between $100 and $500, with a possibility of jail time, depending on the circumstances, the judge, and the state you are in.
Drivers who are 15 can drive without supervision to and from work or school. Fifteen-year-old drivers can get a restricted license if they complete driver education. Driver education required for a permit for people under 17 years old.

Minors' Permit Restrictions
You must practice with a licensed California driver: parent, guardian, driving instructor, spouse, or adult 25 years old or older. A provisional permit does not allow you to drive alone at any time, not even to a DMV field office to take a driving test.The 14 year old is not legally allowed to drive on a public road with or without a parent. They could both get ticketed. If it gets reported to the insurance company the policy could be dropped. The parent may also be charged with endangering the welfare of a minor.
In most states, driving while uninsured is considered a misdemeanor offense, and can potentially lead to a prison sentence. Jail time will most likely not be imposed for a first offense, unless you cause a serious accident. But repeat offenses will incur higher fines and stiffer punishments, possibly including jail.
Sometimes officers randomly run a license plate to see if it's all valid, and the registered owner comes back suspended. Then they check DMV's description for the registered owner and they see if the person driving roughly matches that description.
Now, for the private property, if you are 13 years old and you decide to drive without a licence, it's more likely that this will be the major consequences : Your question is unclear. You're asking the wrong question. Regardless of your age, it's illegal to drive a car without a drivers licence.
It depends on where you live, but in most places you can get your learner's permit at age 15 and begin driving with an adult in the car.
Yes you can. You getting licensed and permitted are based solely on you. Your parents status as drivers is completely irrelevant. What's going to be a challenge for you is getting the required driving time behind the wheel without parents that drive.
Find a good place to learn
Ask friends in your area who've had learner drivers where the quiet, local streets are. Industrial estates on a weekend and empty car parks are good too. If you're in the country you can start with deserted country roads or even paddocks (preferably clear of dams, rocks and trees).What to Know and What to Expect
- Let your teen take the initiative. Teens vary as to what age they are ready to learn to drive.
- Plan ahead.
- Remember you are the coach.
- Correct by asking questions.
- Start slow and build up.
- Be constantly aware.
- Be careful with directions.
- Start off in daylight and good weather.
You need your own insurance as a learner driver if you're practising in a car you own. If you're practising in someone else's car, you need to make sure their insurance policy covers you as a learner driver. Some insurance companies require the person supervising you to be over 25 years old.
Start in an Empty Parking Lot
Wait until it is the weekend, later in the evening or over a holiday and the school parking lot will likely be empty. You can also typically find an empty parking lot by going to a closed shopping center.
