Stay Safe Driving SchoolFAQ's
Is Stay Safe Driving School a certified 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 Stay Safe Driving School directly or the Texas DMV to find out for sure if Stay Safe Driving School offers hands-on driving courses that have been approved by the State of Texas.
I heard that parents can fill the role of driving instructor in Texas, so taking a Houston driving school course like the one Stay Safe Driving School offers is not necessary. Is that true?
You should contact the Texas DMV or a licensed driving school like Stay Safe Driving School and ask them. While parent-taught driving instruction is permitted in some states, many states do NOT allow it.
What happens if I don't know how to operate a stick-shift vehicle? Will Stay Safe Driving School allow me to do my driver training with an automatic-shift vehicle?
Considering you're a brand new driver, you probably don't know much about driving any type of vehicle--manual-shift or automatic-shift! However, if you prefer to complete your behind-the-wheel training using an automatic-shift vehicle, you should contact Stay Safe Driving School and let them know before you sign up to take their behind-the-wheel training course. That way you will know for certain if they will accommodate you.
I live in a small mountain town, where there are a lot of small, unpaved roads. Will my behind-the-wheel training with Stay Safe Driving School include being taught how to drive in remote areas? Or do they just offer training for urban driving?
Most local driving schools will likely want their students to be taught how to drive safely in the local area. Therefore, chances are good that the behind-the-wheel training you receive from Stay Safe Driving School will include handling unpaved roads and mountain driving.
I'm turning 14 in a few weeks. Can I get a instruction 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 a learner's permit. Nevertheless, you may wish to contact the Texas DMV office or a Texas-certified driving school such as Stay Safe Driving School to find out for certain what the minimum driving age is in your local area.
Will I be required to register for both a drivers education classroom or online course and a driver training course in Houston Texas?
It depends on which state you live in, but many states now require new teen-aged drivers to register for both a drivers education course as well as a driver training course.
Texas law says that I must successfully complete a hands-on driver training course in order to get licensed to drive in Houston Texas. Is this something that Stay Safe Driving School can help me with?
Yes, Stay Safe Driving School offers the Texas-approved driver training course. For more information about their classes and instruction schedule, please contact Stay Safe Driving School directly.
Exactly what type of driver training do I need in Houston Texas before I can get my Texas driver's license?
The prerequisites for getting a driver's licenses vary from state to state, however most states now require teen-agers who are looking to get their first driver's license to enroll in a drivers education classroom course as well as a driver training course. We suggest that you contact a local driver training company such as Stay Safe Driving School and ask if they offer a Texas-approved behind-the-wheel training course which would meet Texas's driver's education requirements.
