A teen driver received a provisional license at age 15½. At minimum, how long must the teen hold it before applying for an unrestricted license?
Correct answer: 12 months
Why
New Mexico requires a teen to hold the provisional license for the 12 months just before applying for an unrestricted license, and the law sets the minimum age at 16 years and 6 months. For each traffic conviction during the provisional period, the law adds 30 days to the 12 months. The teen must also have obeyed the provisional restrictions and have no alcohol or drug offense during that period. The law also requires that no violations are pending, and the manual adds that the driver must have no traffic conviction in the 90 days before applying.
