Legal Requirements for Maryland Drivers

Driving a vehicle in Maryland is a privilege. New drivers – regardless of age – must also complete a certified driver’s education program and additional hours of supervised practice driving. The Maryland Department of Transportation (MDOT) Motor Vehicle Administration (MVA) website offers more than 60 services to help drivers meet the requirements to legally drive in Maryland.

Remember the Following Checklist Before Getting Behind the Wheel of a Vehicle:

• Drivers must have a valid and unexpired driver’s license and vehicle registration card while driving, and present their license and registration to a law enforcement officer when requested. The vehicle registration card and proof of auto insurance for the vehicle must be kept in the vehicle.
• Auto insurance must cover personal injury and property damage liability in amounts required by law. Before driving a friend or family member’s vehicle, confirm you have permission to drive and that the vehicle’s registration and owner’s auto insurance are not expired.
• In order to complete the registration process, drivers must obtain a certificate of title, which shows ownership. The title document, however, should be kept in a secure place other than the vehicle with other important legal documents.
• The vehicle must pass an inspection from a licensed inspection station in order to obtain the vehicle title or registration card.
• The vehicle license plates – issued once the registration is approved – must be attached to the vehicle and displayed at all times.
• Tabs showing the vehicle’s registration expiration will be issued by the MVA and must be placed on the license plates.
• The MVA requires vehicles to periodically pass an emissions test from a licensed vehicle emissions inspection program (VEIP) station.

The Maryland MVA provides extensive information about obtaining a driver’s license. Remember, the MVA will never ask for personal information such as a social security number or date of birth via text or e-mail.
