Who may certify the required 50 hours of supervised driving for an under-18 Florida driver license applicant?
-
A.
A certified driving-school instructor
-
B.
Any licensed driver who has ridden along for the hours
-
C.
Only a parent or legal guardian of the applicant
-
D.
A parent, legal guardian, or responsible adult at least 21 years old Correct
The answer is "A parent, legal guardian, or responsible adult at least 21 years old"
The manual allows a parent, legal guardian, or responsible adult at least 21 years old to certify the 50 hours. Choice C narrows it to parents and legal guardians and omits the responsible-adult-21-or-older option, the answer applicants default to when a parent handled every supervised drive and signs the paperwork at home.
The traps in the wrong answers
A. A certified driving-school instructor
Requires a certified instructor, a credential the manual never asks for on the 50-hour log; the manual asks for a parent, legal guardian, or responsible adult age 21 or older, not a certified instructor. This answer carries the certified-instructor role from the TLSAE driving-school course over to a document the manual keeps with parents, guardians, and adults age 21 or older.
B. Any licensed driver who has ridden along for the hours
Drops the age floor of 21 the manual attaches to the responsible-adult option. This answer assumes the licensed adult who rode along for the hours must also be the one authorized to sign for them.
C. Only a parent or legal guardian of the applicant
Drops the responsible-adult option the manual lists alongside parent and legal guardian. This answer names only the parent and guardian channels applicants fall back on when a parent handled every supervised drive.
