International Driving SchoolFAQ's
International Driving School's address and phone number is listed on your webpage. How can I know for sure if it is an approved driver training school in California?
Even though we provide a list of behind-the-wheel training schools on our website, we have no way of knowing for sure as to whether or not a particular school is certified by the California DMV to offer driver training courses. We strongly suggest that you contact International Driving School directly or check with the California DMV to find out for sure if International Driving School is a licensed school.
Could I just have my mother or father give me my behind-the-wheel training instead of paying money to enroll in a professional driver training course?
It depends on which state you live in. There are some states which permit you to do your behind-the-wheel training with a parent or guardian instead of attending a professional driving school. However many states require that new drivers take a professionally-taught driver training course. We recommend that you check with your state's DMV office to find out if your parent or guardian can fill the role as your behind-the-wheel driving instructor.
Do I need to tell International Driving School that I need to train with an automatic-shift car? I don't know how to drive a stick-shift vehicle.
Most new drivers don't know how to operate either a stick-shift OR and automatic-shift car! We recommend that you ask International Driving School if you can complete your driver training using an automatic-shift vehicle before you register for their driver training course.
Since I live way out in a remote location where driving on dirt roads and bumpy terrain is the norm, will International Driving School be able to teach me how to drive in a rural environment? Or do they only prepare you for city-driving?
Since you live in a rural area, odds are that any local driving school in your area such as International Driving School will want you to be able to drive safely on dirt roads and bumpy terrain. We recommend that you contact International Driving School directly to find out exactly what they offer.
