  1. Each passenger is responsible because both are older than seven
  2. The driver is responsible for the 14-year-old, and the 16-year-old is responsible for themselvesCorrect answer
  3. The driver is responsible for both passengers until they turn 18
  4. Only the vehicle owner is responsible for both passengers
