Mississippi Driving Log for Supervised Practice Hours

Mississippi's licensing requirements do not set a fixed number of supervised practice-driving hours. On the under-17 path, the learner permit is generally held for at least 12 months before a driver's license.

A permit holder must be accompanied by a licensed driver age 21 or older in the seat beside them. Because there is no state hours minimum, there is no official hours-log form to submit — but supervised practice is still how new drivers get ready.

Clocked helps Mississippi families keep a personal record of completed drives as they happen — useful whether or not the state sets an hours number. Always confirm current requirements with the Mississippi DPS.

What Mississippi requires

Mississippi's graduated licensing uses a learner permit, an intermediate (Class Y) license, and a full license — but the DPS requirements we reviewed do not publish a fixed supervised-practice-hours total. On the under-17 path, the learner permit is generally held for at least 12 months before a driver's license.

While driving on the permit, the teen must be accompanied by a licensed driver age 21 or older in the seat beside them. The intermediate (Class Y) license adds time-of-day limits — confirm the current Class Y details with the Mississippi DPS.

Even without a state hours number, Clocked helps with the same parent workflow:

  • Log each completed practice drive
  • Keep a running total of day and night hours
  • Keep progress organized through the 12-month permit period
  • Export a clean PDF summary of completed drives for your own records

No fixed hours minimum — why tracking still helps

"No fixed minimum" does not mean zero practice. New drivers get safer with time behind the wheel, and a steady, honest record makes practice easier to keep up during the 12-month permit period.

Clocked is a separate personal tracker. Because Mississippi does not require an hours log, there is no official form for Clocked to replace — it simply helps families keep their own record of completed drives.
