What must a driver have in the front seat while driving during the entire year of the GDL?

Another driving student
Any passenger
A parent or supervisor
A pet

The correct answer is: A parent or supervisor

During the entire year of the Graduated Driver Licensing (GDL) program in Delaware, it is mandatory for a driver, especially those under the age of 18, to have a parent or a supervising adult in the front seat while driving. This requirement is designed to ensure that novice drivers receive the guidance and supervision they need as they develop their driving skills. The presence of a parent or supervisor can provide support, instructions, and corrections in real-time, which are essential for a new driver navigating the complexities of the road. This regulation emphasizes the importance of responsible driving and safety as the new driver gains experience. It mitigates risks by making sure that a more experienced driver is available to assist the learner in making safe driving decisions and responding effectively to unexpected situations on the road.
