Can a teen with a learner's permit drive if a supervising driver is present?

A teen with a learner's permit may drive only when a supervising driver is in the car. That supervising driver must be a licensed driver who is at least 21 years old and seated in the front seat, guiding the new driver as you practice. Driving without a supervising adult is not allowed, even if you’re anxious to practice. A family member can supervise if they meet the same requirements (license and age), but simply being a family member isn’t enough if those conditions aren’t met. There isn’t a daylight-only allowance for learner’s permits; the key rule is the presence of a qualified supervising driver whenever you operate a vehicle.
