What is the minimum age to drive a motorcycle in New York?

Answer

Remember you need a motorcycle license to ride a motorcycle, and a auto license is not sufficient. In my state there is no such thing as a learner's permit for a motorcycle. You take the test and if you pass, you get your license. I am sure no state requires another passenger ride with you. Check with your state license bureau.

Answer

In some states, Illinois for example, a learner's permit is required for riders under 18. With a learner's permit, the rider must be accompanied by another rider (over 21) who possesses a valid motorcycle license. Check with your local Secretary of State's office.

In NY you must obtain a learner's permit first to ride a motorcycle, when riding with a permit, you must be accompanied (on another bike) by a licensed rider. There are safe rider courses available to teach you how to ride (again you must have your learners permit first) and completion of the course with a passing grade allows you to waive your "road test" for your motorcycle license.

Answer

In North Carolina with a learner's permit you drive a motorcycle by yourself but you need a license to drive with a passenger of any age.
