What the source says

State, Learner minimum age, Mandatory holding period (IIHS table), Supervised driving hours, Intermediate minimum age, Nighttime restriction, Passenger restriction, Night restriction lifted and Passenger restriction lifted

The source prints these values inside the passage below but does not name them there. The passage shows where each one appears; what ties them to this record is the position on the page, not anything the passage says.

PA | 16 | 6 months | 65 hours, 10 of which must be at night and 5 of which must be in inclement weather | 16, 6 months | 11 p.m.-5 a.m. | first 6 months— no more than 1 passenger younger than 18; thereafter, no more than 3 passengers | licensed for 12 months and age 17 with driver education or age 18 (min. age: 17) | licensed for 12 months and age 17 with driver education or age 18 (min. age: 17)
