Are you allowed to drive alone with a learner's permit in Segment 1?

You must drive with a supervising driver present in the vehicle. With a learner's permit in Segment 1, you’re still in training, so you’re not allowed to drive solo. A licensed driver who is at least 21 years old (and has meaningful driving experience) must be in the car with you, typically sitting in the front seat to supervise you while you practice. That’s why statements suggesting you can drive alone, or that the supervising driver can be in the car but not in the front seat, don’t fit. The supervising driver must be in the vehicle and actively supervising, usually in the front seat, for you to drive.
