Will the Texas DMV allow my parents to supervise my driving practice instead of requiring me to take a behind-the-wheel training course at a state-approved driving school?

What if I don't know how to operate a vehicle with a manual-shift? Does A Plus Defensive Driving 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 A Plus Defensive Driving to see if they can accommodate your request prior to your enrolling in their behind-the-wheel training course.
I live in a very rural area, where there are mountains and a lot of dirt roads. Do you know if A Plus Defensive Driving offers training for driving in rural areas like where I live instead of just driving on smooth, paved roads in urban areas?

After I turn 14, will I be eligible to obtain my learner's 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 instruction permit.
