What about a motorcycle learner permit?
You will need a supervising driver that will exercise general supervision and stay within one quarter mile of you while you ride the motorcycle.
Are there any restrictions on where I can drive with a learner permit?
Yes. While you have your learner permit, you won't be able to drive on any street within a park in New York City or on any bridge/tunnel under the jurisdiction of the Tri-borough Bridge and Tunnel Authority.
