BWB Driving AcademyFAQ's
Is BWB Driving Academy a licensed driving school in Kansas?
Just because a driving school appears on our directory of driver training institutions, we cannot guarantee that they are fully licensed to offer behind-the-wheel training courses in Kansas. We highly recommend that you contact BWB Driving Academy directly or the Kansas DMV to find out for sure if BWB Driving Academy offers behind-the-wheel training courses that have been approved by the State of Kansas.
Somebody told me that I can skip out of attending a driver training school if my parents give me behind-the-wheel training instead. Is that permissible in Kansas?
Each state has its own rules regarding driver training. Some states will allow parentally-supervised driver training as a substitute for taking a behind-the-wheel training course which is taught by a professional driving instructor. However, not all states allow this. You should contact the Kansas DMV to find out for sure.
Do I need to tell BWB Driving Academy that I need to train with an automatic-shift automobile? I don't know how to operate a stick-shift car.
Most new drivers don't know how to operate either a stick-shift OR and automatic-shift vehicle! We recommend that you ask BWB Driving Academy if you can complete your driver training using an automatic-shift car before you enroll in their driver training course.
What happens to those of us who live in a rural area? Will BWB Driving Academy include instruction on how to drive on dirt roads, mountain roads, and other bumpy terrain?
If you live in a rural location, there is a high probability that a local driver training school like BWB Driving Academy will either want--or even be required--to tailor their instruction towards driving safely in your particular area.
Are 14-year-olds allowed to obtain a learner's permit in Kansas?
Although a few states allow teen-agers to begin practicing how to drive at 14, most states have set the youngest age for which to receive a learner's permit at either 15 or 15½. You will need to contact the Kansas Department of Motor Vehicles (DMV) or a certified driving school like BWB Driving Academy to find out what the minimum age for driving is in Kansas.
Do I have to take both a defensive driving classroom course and a behind-the-wheel training course in Olathe Kansas to get my Kansas driver's license?
The laws vary depending on which state you live in, but most states do require that pre-licensed drivers enroll in a drivers education classroom course and a driver training course. You may want to call a driving instruction company like BWB Driving Academy and find out if they offer either (or both) of these programs.
Kansas's DMV has told me that I need to take a driver training course. Do you know if BWB Driving Academy offers this course or not?
BWB Driving Academy does offer the driver training course that Kansas requires all new teen-aged drivers to take. For more information about the courses BWB Driving Academy offers, we recommend that you contact BWB Driving Academy directly.
What type of driver ed do I need before Kansas will give me a driver's license?
Each state has its own requirements concerning drivers education, although you should know that most states now mandate all new, young drivers to sign up to take a drivers education classroom or online course as well as a driver training course. BWB Driving Academy may be able to help you meet the behind-the-wheel training requirement in Kansas. Please contact either BWB Driving Academy or the Kansas DMV for more information.
Am I required to take a Olathe Kansas driver training course?

Is it okay for me to register for a behind-the-wheel training class in Kansas before I receive my Kansas learners permit to drive?
Probably not. Most states require first-time drivers to have their learners permit before they are allowed to sign up to take a driver training program. You should contact a driving school like BWB Driving Academy and request more information.
