Rock Driving SchoolFAQ's

Since Rock Driving School is listed on your website, does this mean they are approved by the Washington,D.C. DMV to offer driver training courses?
The list of driving schools on our webpage is provided as a convenience to our customers only.  We CANNOT guarantee that every single school listed is fully-certified by the Washington,D.C. DMV.  You may want to call Rock Driving School directly to find out if they offer a state-certified behind-the-wheel training course.
Is it true that my mom or dad can be my driving instructor when I do my driver training instead of a professional driver training school instructor like the ones they have at Rock Driving School?
It depends on what your state's laws are.  You should contact the Washington,D.C. DMV or a licensed driver training school like Rock Driving School to find out if Washington,D.C. allows behind-the-wheel training with a parent.
I have no clue how to drive a manual-shift vehicle. What happens if Rock Driving School makes me train on a manual-shift vehicle?
Considering the fact you are a brand new driver, you probably don't know much about operating ANY type of vehicle....manual OR automatic!  If you prefer to do your behind-the-wheel training with an automatic-shift vehicle, you may want to call Rock Driving School and let them know before you sign up to take their behind-the-wheel training course.  That way you'll know for sure whether Rock Driving School will be able to accommodate you before you pay them any money.
The area in which I live is mostly undeveloped--very few paved roads and mountains are all around. Will Rock Driving School be able to teach me how to drive safely on bumpy terrain as well as in a city or town?
Considering that you live in a remote area, chances are excellent that a local driving school like Rock Driving School will want you to be able to drive safely on unpaved roads and other types of rugged terrain.  You may wish to contact Rock Driving School to find out exactly what their driver training course includes before registering for their training course.
After I turn 14, will I be eligible to get 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 instruction permit.  We suggest that you contact a local driver training school such as Rock Driving School or the Washington,D.C. DMV office to learn more about the minimum age requirement for driving in Washington,D.C..
Can I take Rock Driving School's behind-the-wheel training course before taking a Washington Washington,D.C. defensive driving classroom course or online course?
It depends on what Washington,D.C.'s laws say.  However, you should know that most states will require teen-aged, first-time drivers to complete both a defensive driving classroom course (which are approximately 30 hours in length, depending on Washington,D.C.'s laws) or an approved online course, plus a state-approved behind-the-wheel training course.  We recommend that you contact Rock Driving School directly to see if they offer either (or both) of these courses.
