Quote: (under New Jersey)
A student with a valid learner’s permit from another state may legally drive in New Jersey provided the vehicle he is operating is properly titled, registered and insured in the home state. Further, the permit holder will be subject to the laws of his home state.

I would check with the laws of New Jersey on this one to make sure that is legal for you. It may be ok in S. Dakota but it may be different in New Jersey.

It's legal, but only for 30 days. After that 30 day period has elapsed, you are NO LONGER a resident of the previous state, you are a resident (even if a minor) of the State of New Jersey, and there a 14 year old CANNOT operate a Motor Vehicle legally.

So, yeah, maybe, but get your time in quick, because after 30 days you're...

No. You must be legally eligible to be a NJ licensed driver--that means being of the legal NJ age. As a person under 16, you cannot drive in NJ, period. While in NJ, only NJ law applies--not less restrictive laws of your homestate.

Out of state licenses/permits are recognized, but only as applicable to NJ law. That includes that if you have a permit, and are under 21, you must have a person in the passenger seat 21 or over, who has been a NJ licensed driver for a minimum of 3 years. And you must be of legal age to drive in NJ.

Has he moved from SD or just visiting? I would check with NJ Motor Vehicle directly before driving under those circumstances. There are very tough rules in NJ and you don'r want to mess with NJ Motor Vehicle.
I also think the traffic in NJ is far too much for a 14 y/o to handle.
