What type of permit is a level 1 graduated driver's license?

  1. Regular driver's license

  2. Temporary Instructions Permit (TIP)

  3. Temporary Operator's Permit (TOP)

  4. Full Operator's License

The correct answer is: Temporary Instructions Permit (TIP)

A level 1 graduated driver's license is classified as a Temporary Instruction Permit (TIP). This permit is typically issued to new drivers, allowing them to practice driving under certain conditions before they advance to a higher level of licensing. The key purpose of a level 1 license is to enable learners to gain experience and develop driving skills while being supervised by a licensed adult. With a level 1 license, individuals are usually subject to specific restrictions, such as requiring a licensed adult passenger when driving, indicating its role as an initial step in the graduated licensing process. This structured approach helps ensure that new drivers have adequate training and experience before obtaining full driving privileges. In contrast, a regular driver's license, temporary operator's permit, and full operator's license do not align with the characteristics and regulations associated with a level 1 graduated driver's license. These other options typically represent different stages of driver licensing or require higher levels of skill and independence than what is permitted with a TIP.
