With a learner permit, when may a person drive?

  1. Anytime

  2. When accompanied by a licensed driver 21 years of age or older

  3. During rush hour only

  4. Immediate family members only

The correct answer is: When accompanied by a licensed driver 21 years of age or older

A person with a learner permit may only drive when accompanied by a licensed driver 21 years of age or older. Option A is incorrect because a learner permit does not grant full driving privileges, and new drivers should gain experience under supervision before driving alone. Option C is incorrect because there are no restrictions on when a learner permit holder may drive, unless accompanied by a licensed driver. Option D is incorrect because a learner permit holder may drive with any licensed driver 21 years of age or older, not just immediate family members.
