Delaware Driver Education State Practice Test

A Graduated Driver License (GDL) driver is subject to specific restrictions designed to promote safety and ensure that new drivers gain experience without being overwhelmed. One of these restrictions limits the number of passengers that a GDL driver can have in the vehicle at one time. According to Delaware's GDL regulations, a GDL driver is permitted to have only one passenger who is not a member of their immediate family. This restriction is in place because having additional passengers can increase distractions and reduce the driver's ability to focus on the road. By limiting non-family passengers, GDL drivers can gain essential driving experience in a safer environment. Over time and with more driving experience, these restrictions typically ease. Therefore, the correct answer regarding the number of passengers, other than immediate family, that a GDL driver is allowed in the car at once is one.
