Able Driving CenterFAQ's

Able Driving Center's address and phone number is listed on your webpage. How can I know for sure if it is an approved behind the wheel training school in Florida?
Even though we provide a list of driver 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 Florida DMV to offer behind-the-wheel training courses.  We strongly suggest that you contact Able Driving Center directly or check with the Florida DMV to find out for sure if Able Driving Center 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 behind-the-wheel training course?
It depends on which state you live in.  There are some states which permit you to do your hands-on driver training with a parent or guardian instead of enrolling in a professional driving school.  However many states require that first-time 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 Able Driving Center that I need to train with an automatic-shift vehicle? I don't know how to operate a manual-shift automobile.
Most new drivers don't know how to operate either a manual-shift OR and automatic-shift car!  We recommend that you ask Able Driving Center if you can complete your behind-the-wheel training using an automatic-shift automobile before you sign up to take their driver training course.
Since I live way out in a remote location where driving on unpaved roads and bumpy terrain is the norm, will Able Driving Center 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 the country, odds are that any local driving school in your area such as Able Driving Center will want you to be able to drive safely on dirt roads and bumpy terrain.  We recommend that you contact Able Driving Center directly to find out exactly what they offer.
I'm turning 14 in a few months. Can I get a instruction permit to drive in Florida after my 14th birthday?
Most likely, no.  Most states (though not all) have laws which require that you be at least 15 or 15 1/2 before to be eligible to apply for a learner's permit.  Nevertheless, you may wish to contact the Florida DMV office or a Florida-certified driving school such as Able Driving Center to find out for certain what the minimum driving age is in your local area.
Will I be required to register for both a drivers education classroom or online course and a behind-the-wheel training course in Jacksonville Florida?
It depends on which state you live in, but many states now mandate new teen-aged drivers to enroll in both a drivers education course as well as a behind-the-wheel training course.
If I need to sign up to take a Jacksonville Florida behind-the-wheel training program, can Able Driving Center help?

I live in Jacksonville Florida. What requirements must I meet to be able to get my first Florida driver's license?
It depends on the particular laws of Florida, but most states require teen-aged first-time license applicants to successfully complete both a drivers education classroom course and a behind-the-wheel training course.  Able Driving Center may offer courses which would fulfill the behind-the-wheel training requirement, however you will need to contact them directly to find out exactly what types of courses they offer.
Is hands-on driver training required in Florida in order to be licensed to drive a car?
Absolutely.  All new drivers in Florida must enroll in an approved driver training course before they can get a license to independently operate a motor vehicle.
Do I need to have my learner's permit before I register for a behind-the-wheel training course like the one that Able Driving Center offers?
