What is the minimum age to obtain a driver’s license in New York State?

  1. 14

  2. 16

  3. 18

  4. 21

The correct answer is: 16

In New York State, the minimum age to obtain a driver's license is 16 years old. Option A is incorrect because 14 is too young to legally obtain a driver's license. Option C is incorrect because 18 is the legal age to vote, not obtain a driver's license. Option D is incorrect because 21 is the legal age to purchase alcohol, not obtain a driver's license. Therefore, the correct answer is B.
