Do car dealerships allow 17-year-olds to test drive vehicles?
This article discusses whether car dealerships allow 17-year-olds to test drive vehicles. Generally, most dealerships do not allow 17-year-olds to test drive vehicles, as they are considered too young to have a valid driver’s license. However, some dealerships may make exceptions if the driver is accompanied by an adult with a valid driver’s license. Furthermore, some dealerships may also consider allowing 17-year-olds to test drive vehicles if the vehicle is being purchased for the 17-year-old. Ultimately, it is up to the dealership to decide whether to allow a 17-year-old to test drive a vehicle.
