Estes Driving School FAQ's
Estes Driving School is listed on your website as a driving school which offers driver training courses. How do I know if Estes Driving School is a licensed school in Texas?
While we include a list of driver training schools on our website for your convenience, we cannot guarantee that every single one of them is currently licensed by the Texas DMV. We suggest you contact Estes Driving School directly or the Texas DMV to find out if Estes Driving School is a fully-accredited driving school.
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?
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 Texas DMV to find out if your driver training may be done by your parents in Texas.
What happens if I don't know how to drive a stick-shift vehicle? Will Estes Driving School allow me to do my behind-the-wheel training with an automatic-shift automobile?
Considering you're a brand new driver, you probably don't know much about driving any type of vehicle--stick-shift or automatic-shift! However, if you prefer to complete your behind-the-wheel training using an automatic-shift vehicle, you should contact Estes Driving School and inform them before you register for their driver training course. That way you will know for certain if they will accommodate you.
What happens to those of us who live in a remote area? Will Estes Driving School include instruction on how to drive on dirt roads, mountain roads, and other bumpy terrain?
If you live in a remote location, there is a high probability that a local driver training school like Estes Driving School will either want--or even be required--to tailor their instruction towards driving safely in your particular area.
Can I apply for my Texas instruction permit once I turn 14?
Most likely, no. Most states have set the youngest age to obtain an instruction permit at 15 or 15½. You may want to contact the Texas Department of Motor Vehicles (DMV) or a licensed driver training school like Estes Driving School to learn more about the minimum age requirement in Texas.
Can I take Estes Driving School's driver training course before taking a Clute Texas defensive driving classroom course or online course?
It depends on what Texas's laws prescribe. 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 Texas's laws) or an approved online course, plus a state-approved behind-the-wheel training course. We recommend that you contact Estes Driving School directly to see if they offer either (or both) of these courses.
Does Estes Driving School provide a hands-on driver training course like the one that is required by the State of Texas? I need to enroll in one in order to obtain my driver license.
Estes Driving School offers behind-the-wheel training courses which are approved by the Texas DMV. You may want to contact Estes Driving School directly for more information about their courses and how to go about registering for one.
What are the prerequisites in Clute Texas for obtaining a drivers license?

Estes Driving School may offer an approved behind-the-wheel training course which you could take. Please contact Estes Driving School for information regarding their available classes and how to go about signing up for them.
Is hands-on driver training required in Texas in order to be licensed to operate a motor vehicle?
Absolutely. All new drivers in Texas are required to take an approved driver training course before they can be issued a license to independently operate a motor vehicle.
Can I sign up to take a Texas driver training course prior to having my Texas learners permit?
