Do I have to take a behind-the-wheel training course? Can't my parents just give me my driver training?
There are some states that do permit parents or guardians to provide their teen-aged kids' required behind-the-wheel training in order to obtain a driver's license.

We suggest you contact your state's DMV to find out what the laws are in your state regarding hands-on driving instruction.
