As long as you have your license from your home state, you can legally drive anywhere in the US.

It depends how old you are and not how long you have had your drivers license.

In CA there are driving restrictions when you are under 18.

As long as you have a valid driver's license in the state you live in - it likely does not matter. If you are under 18 then if you are stopped you will be questioned by law enforcement..more than likely. So, if you are 17 and in college I would suggest riding with some one who is 18 or older (also have your college ID as well as your driver's lic and prove of insurance with you just in case)

Being such as newly lic driver I would suggest caution in going such as distance. Making sure to take precautions...not trying to do it all at once to where you wear yourself out or fall asleep at the wheel. People have died and / or killed others falling asleep at the wheel.

I remember driving to CA from college...in Louisiana...driving through Texas (which seems to take forever). I was exiting El Paso about to leave Tex when I fell asleep...the studs on the high way woke me up and an eighteen wheeler honking his horn to me. I was headed into the direction of the desert. I was fortunate and able to correct myself and get back on the rode quickly - waved thank you to the trucker and pulled over at at the next rest stop for a few winks.

I would suggest riding with some one on long trips. After that I learned that it is best to ride with some one keep each other up and going until you reach your destination (or share duties - one sleeps while other drives).
