Manuals in Delaware
Delaware's Division of Motor Vehicles (DMV) has posted some really helpful material. Whether you are looking for certain topics relating to a unique situation or just need more general information to prepare for licensing, a review of the forms and manuals is a great idea.
Drivers License Manual
For all first-time drivers, drivers transferring in from out of state, or even experienced drivers, the Delaware Drivers Manual is a rich source of important information, and available online using the free Adobe Reader.
The manual is neatly divided into five sections:
- Introduction
- Drivers Licensing Information
- Vehicle Equipment Titling and Registration
- Rules of the Road
- Driving Skills and Safety Tips
A more thorough outline of the manual is found in our special Delaware Drivers Manual section.
Motorcycle Operator Manual
The Motorcycle Operator Manual, also available using Adobe Reader, is well-written and covers a broad range of safety and operational topics. The manual is 48 pages long, compiled by the Motorcycle Safety Foundation.
As a motorcycle rider you will appreciate the amount of valuable information included in the manual. You may even encourage other drivers to read it because it will help them be safer when sharing the road with motorcycles.
Sample questions are included to help you prepare for the written exam. Fantastic diagrams are also included in the manual to help you plan for driving situations like intersections and passing cars.
The manual even covers special topics like group riding and passengers. Driving styles are different when you have a passenger or are traveling with other riders.
Refer to our Motorcycle Manual section for more in-depth highlights of the manual.
Commercial Driver's Manual
The Commercial Drivers Manual will be your source for learning just about everything you need to know to drive a commercial motor vehicle. You will want to download the manual, all 198 pages, or visit a DMV office to get your own copy for study and reference.
The manual is broken out into three major sections covering safety topics, operating considerations, and skills. Each section has chapters that deal specifically with certain CDL and CMV topics.
The manual is a great way to start educating yourself before you apply for your commercial driver's license, and we've included a detailed outline of the manual in our Commercial Driver Education section.
