North Shore Driving SchoolFAQ's
Is North Shore Driving School an approved driving school in Wisconsin?
Just because a driving school appears on our directory of driver training institutions, we cannot guarantee that they are fully licensed to offer hands-on driving courses in Wisconsin. We highly recommend that you contact North Shore Driving School directly or the Wisconsin DMV to find out for sure if North Shore Driving School offers behind-the-wheel training courses that have been approved by the State of Wisconsin.
Will the Wisconsin 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?
Possibly. Some states will allow your parents to supervise your driving practice as a substitute to taking a behind-the-wheel driving course with a professional driving instructor. You will need to contact the Wisconsin DMV to find out if your behind-the-wheel driving may be done by your parents in Wisconsin.

Can I apply for my Wisconsin learner's permit once I turn 14?

You may want to call a driving instruction company like North Shore Driving School and find out if they offer either (or both) of these programs.
