Eagle Driving SchoolFAQ's
Eagle Driving School is listed on your website as a driving school which offers behind-the-wheel training courses. How do I know if Eagle Driving School is a certified school in California?
While we include a list of driving schools on our website for your convenience, we cannot guarantee that every single one of them is currently licensed by the California DMV. We suggest you contact Eagle Driving School directly or the California DMV to find out if Eagle Driving School is a fully-accredited driver training school.
Do I have to take a driver training course? Can't my parents just give me my behind-the-wheel training?
There are some states that do allow parents or guardians to provide their teen-aged kids' required behind-the-wheel training in order to obtain a driver's license. However many states do not allow any type of substitution for taking a professionally-taught behind-the-wheel training course. We suggest you contact your state's DMV to find out what the laws are in your state regarding hands-on driving instruction.
I don't know how to drive using a manual-shift. Will Eagle Driving School have an automatic-shift car available that I can use for my driver training?
Since you're enrolling in a Oakland California driver training class, chances are good that you don't know how to drive either a manual-shift OR an automatic! However, you should let Eagle Driving School know what your preference is before signing up to take their driver class. That way you'll know for sure they will accommodate you.
What happens to those of us who live in a non-urban area? Will Eagle Driving School include instruction on how to drive on dirt roads, mountain roads, and other bumpy terrain?

Can 14-year-olds get instruction permits to drive in California?
Most states have set the minimum age for applying for a learner's permit at 15 or 15 1/2. However, some states do allow 14-year-olds to obtain an instruction permit. You may want to contact the California DMV or a California-approved driver training school like Eagle Driving School to find out what the minimum age to drive is in California.
Do I have to take a Oakland California classroom or online drivers education course before I can register for a behind-the-wheel training course through Eagle Driving School?
