  2. who operates the steering mechanism or is in control of a vehicle.
  3. who operates the steering wheel of a vehicle while it is being driven in practice.
Show answer and explanation

Correct answer: who operates the steering mechanism or is in control of a vehicle.

A driver is someone who operates the steering mechanism or is in control of a vehicle. Someone walking a bike or a two-wheeled moped is a pedestrian. In a driving school car, the driver is the instructor, who is in charge of the additional controls, even if the student is at the wheel.
