In what circumstances can you drive with a G1 license?

Driving with a G1 license is specifically designed to allow novice drivers to gain experience under safe and controlled conditions. The requirement to have a fully licensed driver beside you who has at least 2 years of driving experience is essential because it ensures that the learner has access to guidance and support while driving. This experienced driver can assist in making decisions, teach safe driving practices, and help the learner navigate different driving situations.

The other options do not align with the regulations governing G1 drivers. For instance, having any passenger is not permitted, as this could distract the learner or create potentially dangerous situations. Driving only during daytime is not a restriction placed on G1 holders in Nova Scotia, and while limiting the number of passengers is important, the main requirement is having an experienced driver beside the learner. Carrying no passengers would not provide the essential learning environment that the G1 program aims to establish. Thus, the correct scenario for driving with a G1 license involves being accompanied by an appropriately qualified driver.
