Advantage Traffic SchoolFAQ's
Advantage Traffic School is listed on your website as a driving school which offers behind-the-wheel training courses. How do I know if Advantage Traffic School is a licensed school in Florida?
While we include a list of driving schools on our website for your convenience, we cannot guarantee that every single one of them is currently licensed by the Florida DMV. We suggest you contact Advantage Traffic School directly or the Florida DMV to find out if Advantage Traffic School is a fully-accredited driver training school.
Do I have to take a behind-the-wheel training course? Can't my parents just give me my behind-the-wheel training?
There are some states that do allow parents or guardians to provide their teen-aged kids' required driver training in order to obtain a driver's license. However many states do not allow any type of substitution for enrolling in a professionally-taught behind-the-wheel training course. We suggest you contact your state's DMV to find out what the laws are in your state regarding behind-the-wheel training.
What if I don't know how to drive a vehicle with a stick-shift? Does Advantage Traffic School have an automatic-shift vehicle they'll let me train with?
Since you're just learning how to drive, you probably don't know how to operate either a manual-shift or an automatic-shift vehicle! However, if you have a preference as to a manual or an automatic, you probably should call Advantage Traffic School to see if they can accommodate your request prior to your signing up to take their behind-the-wheel training course.
What happens to those of us who live in a remote area? Will Advantage Traffic School include instruction on how to drive on dirt roads, mountain roads, and other bumpy terrain?
If you live in a rural location, there is a high probability that a local driver training school like Advantage Traffic School will either want--or even be required--to tailor their instruction towards driving safely in your particular locale.
After I turn 14, will I be eligible to obtain my instruction permit so I can begin to learn how to drive?
It depends on which state you live in, however most states unfortunately require you to be at least 15 (or sometimes 15 1/2) before you can be issued a learner's permit. We suggest that you contact a local driver training school such as Advantage Traffic School or the Florida DMV office to learn more about the minimum age requirement for driving in Florida.
Can I take Advantage Traffic School's behind-the-wheel training course before taking a Miami Florida defensive driving classroom course or online course?
It depends on what Florida's laws prescribe. However, you should know that most states will require teen-aged, first-time drivers to complete both a drivers education classroom course (which are approximately 30 hours in length, depending on Florida's laws) or an approved online course, plus a state-approved driver training course. We recommend that you contact Advantage Traffic School directly to see if they offer either (or both) of these courses.
Florida law says that I must successfully complete a driver training course in order to get licensed to drive in Miami Florida. Is this something that Advantage Traffic School can help me with?
Yes, Advantage Traffic School offers the Florida-approved driver training course. For more information about their classes and instruction schedule, please contact Advantage Traffic School directly.
What are the requirements in Miami Florida for obtaining a drivers license?
It depends on your state's laws, however in many states, teen-agers must complete both a drivers education classroom course and a behind-the-wheel training course. Advantage Traffic School may offer an approved driver training course which you could take. Please contact Advantage Traffic School for information regarding their available classes and how to go about signing up for them.
Is it necessary for me to sign up for a behind-the-wheel training course in order to get my first Florida driver's license?

Is it okay for me to sign up to take a behind-the-wheel training class in Florida before I receive my Florida instruction permit to drive?
Probably not. Most states require first-time drivers to have their learners permit before they are allowed to sign up to take a behind-the-wheel training program. You should contact a driving instruction company like Advantage Traffic School and request more information.
