Texas Driving SchoolFAQ's
How do I know if Texas Driving School is certified by Texas's DMV to offer driver training courses?
While we do include Texas Driving School's contact information in our driving school directory, we cannot say with certainty as to whether Texas Driving School is licensed by the State of Texas. We recommend that you either contact Texas Driving School directly or possibly the Texas DMV to find out if Texas Driving School is a licensed driver training school.
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 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 attending 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 hands-on driving instruction.
What happens if I don't know how to operate a manual-shift vehicle? Will Texas Driving School allow me to do my behind-the-wheel training with an automatic-shift vehicle?
Considering you're a brand new driver, you probably don't know much about operating any type of car--stick-shift or automatic-shift! However, if you prefer to complete your driver training using an automatic-shift vehicle, you should contact Texas Driving School and let them know before you register for their driver training course. That way you will know for certain if they will accommodate you.
What happens to those of us who live in a remote area? Will Texas Driving School include instruction on how to drive on dirt roads, mountain roads, and other rugged?
If you live in a rural location, there is a high probability that a local driver training school like Texas Driving School will either want--or even be required--to tailor their instruction towards driving safely in your particular area.
Now that I'm 14, will Texas allow me to get an instruction permit to drive?
Not likely. Most states require residents to be at least 15 or 15 1/2 years old before applying for an instruction permit. We recommend that your contact the Texas DMV office or a Texas-approved driver training institute such as Texas Driving School to learn more about the minimum driving age requirement in Texas.
Do I have to complete a San Antonio Texas drivers education classroom course or online course before signing up to take one of Texas Driving School's behind-the-wheel training courses?
Each state has its own rules, but most states will require first-time drivers to take both a driver training course plus either a defensive driving classroom course (which are about 30 hours in length) or an approved online drivers education course. You may want to ask Texas Driving School if they offer one or both programs.
I am looking to enroll in a San Antonio Texas behind-the-wheel training course. Can Texas Driving School assist me with this?

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 complete a drivers education classroom or online course as well as a behind-the-wheel training course. Texas Driving School may be able to help you fulfill the driver training requirement in Texas. Please contact either Texas Driving School or the Texas DMV for more information.
