So having perused nzta website and read a number of different forum topics i find myself back at geekzone looking for an answer. Don't fail me people !!

Son has passed his test and is now on restricted. I believe from what ive read there sre specific rules around who he can drive with - either a supervisor and the regs that accompany that or passengers who can be a parent, spouse or dependants of the driver.

Assuming the time is around 8pm at night i.e well before the 10pm curfew and i'm his parent , i'm believing from what i've read that he can drive me as a passenger i.e NOT a supervisor. . Am i allowed to have consumed alcohol given i'm a passenger.

Keen to figure this out before and not after. We are heading out for a family celebration and would normally take two cars and have two sober drivers but this could be another option.

Thanks for your thoughts
