What is the minimum age to obtain a learner permit in New York?

  1. 13 years old

  2. 14 years old

  3. 15 years old

  4. 16 years old

The correct answer is: 14 years old

In New York, the minimum age to obtain a learner permit is 16 years old. Option A, 13 years old, is too young to obtain a learner permit in New York. Option C, 15 years old, is incorrect because it is still under the minimum age requirement of 16 years old. Option D, 16 years old, may seem like a correct answer but it is not specific to New York. Option B, 14 years old, is the correct answer as it falls under the minimum age requirement of 16 years old in New York.
