  • What You Need to Know about Delaware Drivers Ed

    If you are under the age of 18 in Delaware, you must complete a driver education course in order to get your drivers license. The Delaware driver training process consists of a minimum of 44 hours of instruction: 30 hours of classroom instruction, 7 hours of in-car observation, and 7 of in-car/behind-the-wheel instruction. Please note: This course does not meet the state-required, 30-hour classroom training. Let’s get started.

    Delaware Course Overview

    The drivers ed online course offered by I Drive Safely will educate you on defensive driving techniques, road safety, and traffic laws. The course consists of individual chapters, each with a multiple-choice quiz at the end. Each quiz has 10 questions, and you are required to score at least 80% on each quiz to move on to the next chapter.

    Drivers Ed Course Final Exam

    When you reach the end of the I Drive Safely drivers ed course, you will be asked to take a 50-question final exam. It is made up of multiple-choice questions, and you must get an 80% score at minimum to pass. Upon successful completion of your course, a Certificate of Completion will be mailed to you. You have your choice of a variety of shipping options to have your certificate delivered.

    Please note: This course does not meet the state-required, 30-hour classroom training.

    Delaware Learners Permit Requirements

    In order to get a Level One learners permit in Delaware, teens must meet certain eligibility requirements. These requirements include visiting the DMV and doing the following:

    • You must be at least 16 but younger than 18.
    • You must provide a Delaware driver education certificate (blue certificate) to prove that you successfully completed a driver education course. Note: the I Drive Safely drivers ed course is meant to provide additional training and does not qualify for this certificate.
    • If you are a minor, you must have a driver license application that is signed by a sponsor. A sponsor can be any of the following:
      • Either the father or mother of the minor, if both are living together within the state of Delaware and the minor resides with them, or
      • Father of the minor, if he lives within the state and the minor resides with only the father; or the mother of the minor, if she lives within the state and the minor resides with only the mother. If the minor resides with neither parent and has no legal guardian in the state, then either the father or mother may be the sponsor, or
      • Legal guardian or court-appointed custodian of the minor, or
      • Any person deemed acceptable by the Secretary of Transportation or the Chief of Driver Services.
    • You must present documentation that proves your name, date of birth, Social Security number, and Delaware residency (you must have two proofs of residency, unless your sponsor is a licensed Delaware driver who lives at the same address as you).
    • You must pay the required license fee.
    • You must pass an eye screen.

    How to Earn Your Delaware Class D Operators License

    To be eligible for a Delaware drivers license, or Class D operators license, the following must be true:

    • You are at least 17 but younger than 18.
    • You have held a Level One learners permit (Delaware instructional permit) for a minimum of 1 year (12 months).
    • Your sponsor has not withdrawn his/her endorsement.
    • Your driving privileges are not suspended/revoked/denied/surrendered/canceled.

    Your Level One permit will automatically become a Class D license once you have completed a full 12 months of valid driving authority (meaning 12 months during which your license was not suspended, revoked, etc.).
