Which statement is true regarding the restriction of passengers for a Provisional License holder?

For a Provisional License holder in Texas, the regulations are designed to ensure safety especially for new, inexperienced drivers. The correct statement indicates that during the first 12 months of holding this provisional license, the driver can have only one non-family passenger under 21 in the vehicle. This rule acknowledges the potential distractions that additional young passengers may pose, while still allowing some social interaction for the driver.

This restriction aims to reduce the risk of accidents and ensures that the driver remains focused on the road. It also encourages responsible driving behavior by limiting the number of young passengers who may not prioritize safety in a vehicle.

Having more than one non-family passenger under 21 is not permitted, as this would contradict the established guidelines that specifically limit the number of young passengers to one. Immediate family members are not counted in this limitation, allowing for some flexibility, but the focus remains on reducing potential distractions from non-familial peers.
