Rhode Island Driving Log for Permit Hours
Rhode Island requires 50 hours of supervised driving experience, including at least 10 hours at night, before the road test.
The Limited Instructional Permit is held for at least six months, and the hours are verified by an affidavit signed by a parent or guardian.
Tracking practice drives gets messy when the record lives on paper, in Notes, or in memory. Clocked helps Rhode Island families log completed drives as they happen, so total and night hours are easy to review before a parent or guardian signs the affidavit. Always confirm current requirements with the Rhode Island DMV.

Rhode Island supervised driving requirement
Rhode Island requires 50 hours of supervised driving experience, with at least 10 of those hours at night, and the Limited Instructional Permit must be held for at least six months before the road test.
Rhode Island also requires a 33-hour classroom driver education course within the applicable pathway.
Clocked is designed around that exact parent workflow:
- Log each completed practice drive
- Track total hours toward 50
- Track night hours toward 10
- Keep progress organized on one screen
- Export a clean PDF summary of completed drives before the affidavit is signed
The parent/guardian affidavit
Rhode Island verifies the hours with an affidavit signed by a parent or guardian confirming that the 50 hours — including 10 at night — were completed.
Because a parent or guardian has to sign that the hours were completed, keeping an accurate personal record while drives actually happen makes signing the affidavit straightforward.
Clocked does not replace the parent/guardian affidavit, and a Clocked PDF is not an official Rhode Island affidavit. It is a private tracker that helps families keep a personal record of completed drives so the affidavit is easy to complete accurately.
Tired of rebuilding the record later? Track each Rhode Island practice drive in Clocked as soon as it happens.
