2.1 All licenses issued under the provisions of Chapter 83 shall expire on the last day of December in the year following their issuance and may be renewed upon application to the Director as prescribed by his/her regulations.

2.2 Every school must display in a prominent place in its office, the license issued to it a list of its instructors, and a list of fees for all services offered by the school.

2.3 No such license shall be issued unless every applicant, officer, partner or manager has furnished satisfactory evidence of good character, reputation, fitness and ability to comply satisfactorily with the regulations affecting driver training schools.

2.4 No license will be issued until at least one instructor has secured an instructor's license.

2.5 Licenses are not transferable.

2.5.1 In the event of any change of ownership or interest in a business licensed as a sole proprietorship or partnership which enlarges or brings new persons into the business, a new application for a license must be filed immediately. Such application shall be considered as an application for renewal so long as one or more of the original licensees remains a part owner of the business.

2.5.2 In the event of a change through a death or dissolution of a partnership and there is no replacement made, the remaining partner or partners may, upon notifying the Director of the Division of Motor Vehicles, continue in business under the current license. If a new partner or partners are subsequently added, the provisions of paragraph (1) immediately preceding shall apply.

2.5.3 The Director must be notified within 14 days in the event that arrangements are made for the disposal of the business, and the Director in a proper case may permit continuance of the business by the current licensee, pending processing of the application made by the person or persons to whom the business is to be transferred.

2.6 If the license is lost or destroyed, a duplicate will be issued by the Director upon proof of the facts and payment of the fee of five dollars ($5.00). Such proof shall consist of a notarized affidavit indicating:

2.6.2 The circumstances involving the loss or destruction.

2.7 In case of mutilation of a license, a duplicate will be issued by the Director upon surrender of such mutilated license and the payment of a fee of five dollars ($5.00).

2.8 In order to ensure continuity of licenses, a renewal application must be submitted not more than 60 days, but a least 30 days prior to the date of expiration of this license being renewed. Failure to file a renewal application within the period specified herein may result in a delay in the issuance of the renewal license, and a period of time in which the applicant would be unlicensed. No renewal application will be accepted after the expiration date of the expiring license.

2.9 A license may be surrendered for cancellation by mailing it to the office of the Division of Motor Vehicles, P.O. Box 698, Dover, Delaware 19901, Attention: Commercial Driver Training School Licensing Section. In all such cases the licensee is required to state in writing the reason for such surrender.
