What is the minimum age for obtaining a Driver's License in New York?

  1. 16

  2. 18

  3. 21

  4. 25

The correct answer is: 16

In New York, the minimum age for obtaining a Driver's License is 16 years old. Option B is incorrect because 18 is the minimum age for obtaining a full license, but a learner's permit can be obtained at age 16. Option C is also incorrect because 21 is the minimum age for purchasing and consuming alcohol but not for obtaining a driver's license. Option D is incorrect because 25 is not the minimum age for obtaining a driver's license in New York. Therefore, option A is the only correct answer.
