Licensing & Test ReadinessStandalone practice
Eli, 16, has a New Mexico provisional license. He drives to a school game, and no adult rides with him. Which group of passengers may ride with him?
Correct answer: His 13-year-old sister and one 16-year-old friend
Why
Friends in the car can distract a new driver and pull attention away from the road. That is why New Mexico limits a provisional driver to one passenger under age 21 who is not a member of the driver's immediate family. Immediate family members do not count toward the limit, and neither do passengers who are 21 or older.
