Excel Driving SchoolFAQ's
Excel Driving School is listed on your website as a driving school which offers driver training courses. How do I know if Excel Driving School is a certified school in California?

We suggest you contact Excel Driving School directly or the California DMV to find out if Excel Driving School is a fully-accredited driving school.
Could I just have my mother or father give me my behind-the-wheel training instead of paying money to take a professional behind-the-wheel training course?
It depends on which state you live in. There are some states which permit you to do your behind-the-wheel training with a parent or guardian instead of attending a professional driving school. However many states require that first-time drivers take a professionally-taught behind-the-wheel training course. We recommend that you ask your state's DMV office to find out if your parent or guardian can fill the role as your behind-the-wheel driving instructor.
What happens if I don't know how to drive a manual-shift vehicle? Will Excel Driving School allow me to do my behind-the-wheel training with an automatic-shift vehicle?
Considering you're a brand new driver, you probably don't know much about driving any type of automobile--manual-shift or automatic-shift! However, if you prefer to complete your driver training using an automatic-shift vehicle, you should contact Excel Driving School and inform them before you register for their driver training course. That way you will know for certain if they will accommodate you.

You will need to contact the California Department of Motor Vehicles (DMV) or a licensed driving school like Excel Driving School to find out what the minimum age for driving is in California.
