Licensing & Test ReadinessStandalone practice
Maya is 16 and lives with her father, who has custody of her. Her aunt, age 30, will supervise her practice drives. Who must sign Maya's instruction permit application as the responsible adult?
Correct answer: Her father, because he is the parent who has custody of her
Why
The co-signer is not just a formality. Under Nevada law, the person who signs a minor's application shares legal responsibility for damage the minor causes through careless or willful driving. If no parent has custody, a legal custodian, and in some cases an employer or another responsible adult, may sign instead. This rule gives a responsible adult a real stake in the teen's safe driving.
