I've been told that either of my parents can supervise my behind-the-wheel training, so I don't have to attend a Daly City California driving school like Fil Am Driving School to fulfill my driver training requirement. Do you know if that's true or not?
You will need to contact the California DMV or a state-approved driving school like Fil Am Driving School to find out. Some states do allow parent-taught driving, but many states do not.
What if I don't know how to drive a vehicle with a manual-shift? Does Fil Am Driving School have an automatic-shift vehicle they'll let me train with?

However, if you have a preference as to a stick or an automatic, you probably should call Fil Am Driving School to see if they can accommodate your request prior to your enrolling in their driver training course.
