Teen Driving SchoolFAQ's
Is Teen Driving School an approved driving school in Texas?
Just because a driving school appears on our directory of driver training institutions, we cannot guarantee that they are fully licensed to offer behind-the-wheel training courses in Texas. We highly recommend that you contact Teen Driving School directly or the Texas DMV to find out for sure if Teen Driving School offers behind-the-wheel training courses that have been approved by the State of Texas.
Somebody told me that I can skip out of attending a driver training school if my parents give me behind-the-wheel training instead. Is that permissible in Texas?
Each state has its own rules regarding behind-the-wheel training. Some states will allow parentally-supervised driver training as a substitute for taking a driver training course which is taught by a professional driving instructor. However, not all states allow this. You should contact the Texas DMV to find out for sure.
What if I don't know how to drive a stick-shift automobile? Does Teen Driving School have automatic-shift vehicles that I can drive when I do my driver training?
If you're taking a Deer Park Texas driver training class, chances are you don't know how to drive ANY vehicle yet-- manual or automatic. However, if you prefer an automatic vehicle then you should tell Teen Driving School that prior to registering for the course in order to make sure they can accommodate you.
I live in a very remote area, where there are mountains and a lot of unpaved roads. Do you know if Teen Driving School offers training for driving in rural areas like where I live instead of just driving on smooth, paved roads in city areas?
Since you live in a remote area, a local driving school such as Teen Driving School will tailor your behind-the-wheel training to handle the conditions in your area.
I'm turning 14 in a few weeks. Can I get a learner's permit to drive in Texas after my 14th birthday?
Most likely, no. Most states (though not all) have laws which require that you be at least 15 or 15 1/2 before to be eligible to apply for an instruction permit. Nevertheless, you may wish to contact the Texas DMV office or a Texas-certified driving school such as Teen Driving School to find out for certain what the minimum driving age is in your local area.
Am I required to take a Deer Park Texas classroom or online drivers education course before I can sign up to take a behind-the-wheel training course through Teen Driving School?
This requirement varies from state to 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 behind-the-wheel training course. You should ask Teen Driving School if they offer one or both programs.
I have to take a behind-the-wheel training course in Deer Park Texas. Can I meet this requirement by signing up with Teen Driving School?

What type of driver ed do I need before Texas will give me a driver's license?
Each state has its own requirements concerning drivers education, although you should know that most states now mandate all new, young drivers to enroll in a drivers education classroom or online course as well as a behind-the-wheel training course. Teen Driving School may be able to help you fulfill the driver training requirement in Texas. Please contact either Teen Driving School or the Texas DMV for more information.
Is hands-on driver training required in Texas in order to be licensed to drive a car?

Is it possible to enroll in a Texas-approved driver training course before I obtain my Texas instruction permit?
