Teen Auto ClubFAQ's
Is Teen Auto Club a licensed driving school in California?
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 California. We highly recommend that you contact Teen Auto Club directly or the California DMV to find out for sure if Teen Auto Club offers hands-on driving courses that have been approved by the State of California.
Will the California 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 as a substitute to taking a behind-the-wheel driving course with a professional driving instructor. You will need to contact the California DMV to find out if your behind-the-wheel driving may be done by your parents in California.
I can't operate a manual-shift. Will Teen Auto Club allow me to complete my behind-the-wheel training on an automatic-shift vehicle?
We recommend that you contact Teen Auto Club and ask them if you can do your behind-the-wheel training using a vehicle that has an automatic shift before enrolling in their behind-the-wheel training course.
I don't live anywhere near a city. There are dirt roads and bumpy terrain all around my house. How do I know if Teen Auto Club will train me on how to drive in a remote area like where I live and not just teach me how to drive in a town-or city-type environment?
Since Teen Auto Club is a local driver training company in your area, it's a safe bet that Teen Auto Club will be motivated (or perhaps required) to teach its local customers how to drive on rough terrain. If you want to make certain, however, you may want to call Teen Auto Club to find out exactly what's included in their behind-the-wheel training course before you register with them.
Can 14-year-olds obtain instruction permits to drive in California?
Most states have set the minimum age for applying for an instruction permit at 15 or 15 1/2. However, some states do allow 14-year-olds to get a learner's permit. You may want to contact the California DMV or a California-approved driver training school like Teen Auto Club to find out what the minimum age to drive is in California.
