Which statement best describes driver release eligibility for residential packages?

• A. All residential packages are driver released
• B. Only high risk residential packages are driver released
• C. Some residential packages are driver released while others are not
• D. No residential packages are driver released

Answer: (C)

Driver release eligibility in residential deliveries varies based on what the shipper requested and the delivery instructions attached to the package. Some residential shipments are cleared for driver release, meaning the driver can leave the package at the destination without obtaining a signature. Other residential packages require a signature (adult or direct) or special handling, so they cannot be released without the recipient's action. This variability is why the correct answer states that some residential packages are driver released while others are not. It reflects that release decisions depend on the shipment’s instructions and risk considerations, not on residential deliveries being uniformly released or uniformly not released.
