Licensing & Test ReadinessStandalone practice
Sam, age 16, has a learner's permit. Sam's mother, a licensed driver, sits in the front passenger seat. After practice at 6 p.m., Sam wants to drive home with his sister, age 14, and two teammates, ages 15 and 16, who are not family. What does Virginia law allow?
Correct answer: Sam may take his sister and one teammate, but not both teammates
Why
Friends in the car can take a new driver's attention away from the road, so Virginia limits young passengers from the permit stage. A permit also does not allow driving from midnight to 4 a.m., with no exceptions (Code § 46.2-335 D). The manual does not show these limits, but they are part of the Code of Virginia.
