Is IDB Improvement Driving Businesses a certified driving school in New York?
Just because a driving school appears on our directory of driver training institutions, we cannot guarantee that they are fully licensed to offer driver training courses in New York.  We highly recommend that you contact IDB Improvement Driving Businesses directly or the New York DMV to find out for sure if IDB Improvement Driving Businesses offers hands-on driving courses that have been approved by the State of New York.
Will the New York DMV allow my parents to supervise my driving practice instead of requiring me to take a behind-the-wheel training course at a state-approved driving school?
Possibly.  Some states will allow your parents to supervise your driving practice in place of taking a behind-the-wheel driving course with a professional driving instructor.  You will need to contact the New York DMV to find out if your driver training may be done by your parents in New York.
What happens if I don't know how to drive a stick-shift vehicle? Will IDB Improvement Driving Businesses allow me to do my driver 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 behind-the-wheel training using an automatic-shift vehicle, you should contact IDB Improvement Driving Businesses and let them know before you sign up to take their behind-the-wheel training course.  That way you will know for certain if they will accommodate you.
I live in a small rural community, where there are a lot of small, unpaved roads. Will my behind-the-wheel training with IDB Improvement Driving Businesses include being taught how to drive in rural areas? Or do they just offer training for city driving?
Most local driving schools will likely want their students to be taught how to drive safely in the local area.  Therefore, chances are good that the driver training you receive from IDB Improvement Driving Businesses will include handling dirt roads and mountain driving.
Can 14-year-olds obtain instruction permits to drive in New York?
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 New York DMV or a New York-approved driver training school like IDB Improvement Driving Businesses to find out what the minimum age to drive is in New York.
Do I have to take a Buffalo New York classroom or online drivers education course before I can register for a behind-the-wheel training course through IDB Improvement Driving Businesses?
This requirement varies by state but most states do require new teen-aged drivers to take BOTH a classroom-based defensive driving course (generally 30 hours in length) AND a driver training course.  You should ask IDB Improvement Driving Businesses if they offer one or both programs.
Does IDB Improvement Driving Businesses provide a hands-on driver training course like the one that is required by the State of New York? I need to register for one in order to obtain my driver license.
IDB Improvement Driving Businesses offers behind-the-wheel training courses which are approved by the New York DMV.  You may want to contact IDB Improvement Driving Businesses directly for more information about their courses and how to go about signing up for one.
What steps do I have to take in order to get a New York drivers license in Buffalo New York?
Most states require that teen-agers who are applying for their first driver's license complete both a safe driving classroom course and a behind-the-wheel training course.  IDB Improvement Driving Businesses may be able to help you fulfill the behind-the-wheel training portion in New York.  Please contact IDB Improvement Driving Businesses for more information.

Is it possible to sign up to take a New York-approved driver training course before I obtain my New York instruction permit?
