Practice question

If someone other than a parent or guardian signed for Teen Driver to get a license, who would that person be?

  1. Legal custodian
  2. Licensed driver 21 years of age or older
  3. Employer
  4. Member of the clergy

Answer: A — Legal custodian

A legal custodian is someone who has the legal responsibility for care and management of a minor. In this scenario, the legal custodian would have the authority to sign for the teen driver to get a license as they are responsible for the minor's well-being and decisions. Option B, a licensed driver 21 years of age or older, may seem like a plausible answer, however, they do not have the legal responsibility or authority to make decisions for the minor. Options C and D, an employer and member of the clergy, have no legal relationship or authority over the minor and would not have the ability to sign for them to get a license. Therefore, option A, legal custodian, is the correct choice in this scenario.
