What is the curfew for teen drivers in New Mexico?
My son is a newly licensed driver and I noticed he’s been coming home after midnight some nights. I’ve advised him that there’s a statewide curfew for drivers under 18, but he said he was never told such a thing when he took driver’s ed. Is there a curfew for teen drivers in New Mexico?

The only exceptions to this rule are if the teen is in the company of a responsible, licensed adult or has a:
- Work permit
- Religious function
- School function
- Family emergency
- Medical emergency
Like many states, New Mexico has a Graduated Driver License (GDL) program, which means new drivers who are minors must initially hold a
provisional license
. Then, after 12 months, they become eligible for a standard New Mexico driver’s license
