Licensing & Test ReadinessStandalone practice
Leo, 15, is enrolled in approved driver education and applies for his first New Mexico instructional permit. Which tests must he pass to get the permit?
Correct answer: A knowledge test and a vision test
Why
The knowledge test checks that a new driver can read traffic signs and knows New Mexico traffic laws before driving on public roads, even with a supervisor. The vision test makes sure the driver sees well enough to drive safely. The road skills test comes later, after supervised practice, when the teen applies for a provisional license.
