Student's permit.
Section 35
SEC. 35. Student's permit.—Upon receipt of a fee of one peso the Director of Public Works or his deputies are further authorized to issue student's permits, good for six months, to persons not under eighteen years of age, who desire to learn to operate motor vehicles. The Director of Public Works may in his discretion require six months operation as a student, as a prerequisite to the acceptance of an application for a chauffeur's license. In the discretion of the Director of Public Works or his deputies, persons claiming to have learned to operate motor vehicles in other countries or states, may be allowed to apply for a regular license without the previous requirement of a student's permit. A student operator who applies for a regular license, but fails to prove competent in the examination, shall continue as a student for at least six additional months. No student's permit shall authorize the person to whom the same is issued to operate a motor vehicle in any public highway, unless accompanied by some person carrying a regular license for the current year, issued under this Act to operate such motor vehicle. The licensed chauffeur acting as instructor shall be responsible and liable for any violation of the provisions of this Act and for any injury or damage done by a motor vehicle, on account or as a result of its operation by a student under his direction.
