World Driving SchoolFAQ's
Since World Driving School appears on your website, does this mean they are approved by the California DMV to offer driver training courses?
The list of driving schools on our webpage is provided as a convenience to our customers only. We CANNOT guarantee that every single school listed is fully-approved by the California DMV. You may want to call World Driving School directly to find out if they offer a state-certified behind-the-wheel training course.
Could I just have my mother or father give me my behind-the-wheel training instead of paying money to attend a professional driver training course?
It depends on which state you live in. There are some states which permit you to do your hands-on driver training with a parent or guardian instead of enrolling in a professional driving school. However many states require that first-time drivers take a professionally-taught driver training course. We recommend that you check with your state's DMV office to find out if your parent or guardian can fill the role as your behind-the-wheel driving instructor.
I don't know how to drive using a stick-shift. Will World Driving School have an automatic-shift car available that I can use for my behind-the-wheel training?
Since you're enrolling in a Pasadena California driver training class, chances are good that you don't know how to drive either a manual-shift OR an automatic! However, you should let World Driving School know what your preference is before registering for their behind-the-wheel class. That way you'll know for sure they will accommodate you.
I live in a very rural area, where there are mountains and a lot of unpaved roads. Do you know if World Driving School teaches students how to drive in rural areas like where I live instead of just driving on smooth, paved roads in city areas?
Since you live in a rural area, a local driving school such as World Driving School will tailor your driver training to handle the conditions in your area.
