According to the Certification of Supervised Driving, what minimum number of practice-driving hours must a parent or guardian certify?
-
A.
30
-
B.
50 Correct

C.
40

D.
60
The answer is "50"
The Certification of Supervised Driving (MV-262) is the parent or guardian's signed statement that the permit holder completed at least 50 hours of supervised practice driving, with at least 15 hours of that practice after sunset. A test-taker who learned a 30-hour practice minimum from another state's driver-training program carries that lower figure into Choice A.
The traps in the wrong answers
A. 30
The MV-262 requires at least 50 hours of practice driving, not 30. This answer carries over a 30-hour practice minimum learned in another state's driver-training program.
C. 40
40 hours falls short of the 50-hour certified minimum the MV-262 sets. This answer substitutes a 40-hour supervised-practice figure heard from a non-New-York driver-training source for the certified 50-hour total.
D. 60
60 hours overshoots the 50-hour minimum the manual actually requires. This answer rounds the 50-hour minimum upward on a safer-is-better instinct from parent-coaching advice.
