it was a bill, but it got vetoed

when people heard of it, rumors got started, and it was blown way out of proportion
what is true though, is that until you turn 18, you are under a "provisional license"

Provisional driver license restrictions during the first year

The following restrictions apply to minors when issued a provisional driver license.

You must be accompanied and supervised by a licensed parent, guardian or other licensed driver 25 years of age or older or a licensed or certified driving instructor when you:

    * Transport passengers under 20 years of age at any time, for the first six months.
    * Drive between midnight and 5 AM for the first 12 months.

Persons under 18 may not be employed to drive a motor vehicle. When you become 18, the provisional part of your license ends. You may continue to drive as an adult using your photo license, which will expire on your 5th birthday after the date you applied.

which basically means that for the first 6 months of your license, you can't drive people under 20, and for the entire first year, you can't drive during the hours from midnight to 5AM.
