Hawkins Driver Education FAQ's
Is Hawkins Driver Education an approved driving school in Idaho?
Just because a driving school appears on our directory of driver training institutions, we cannot guarantee that they are fully licensed to offer behind-the-wheel training courses in Idaho. We highly recommend that you contact Hawkins Driver Education directly or the Idaho DMV to find out for sure if Hawkins Driver Education offers hands-on driving courses that have been approved by the State of Idaho.
Could I just have my mother or father teach me how to drive instead of paying money to take a professional driver training course?
It depends on which state you live in. There are some states which allow you to complete 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.
What if I don't know how to operate a manual-shift automobile? Does Hawkins Driver Education have automatic-shift vehicles that I can drive when I do my driver training?

However, if you prefer an automatic vehicle then you should tell Hawkins Driver Education that prior to registering for the course in order to make sure they can accommodate you.
I live in a very rural area, where there are mountains and a lot of unpaved roads. Do you know if Hawkins Driver Education teaches students how to drive in rural areas like where I live instead of just driving on smooth, paved roads in urban areas?
