Reliable Driving School FAQ's
Reliable Driving School is listed on your website as a driving school which offers driver training courses. How do I know if Reliable Driving School is a certified school in Illinois?

We suggest you contact Reliable Driving School directly or the Illinois DMV to find out if Reliable Driving School is a fully-accredited driving school.
Do I have to take a driver training course? Can't my parents just give me my driver training?
There are some states that do permit parents or guardians to provide their teen-aged kids' required driver training in order to obtain a driver's license. However many states do not allow any type of substitution for enrolling in a professionally-taught behind-the-wheel training course. We suggest you contact your state's DMV to find out what the laws are in your state regarding behind-the-wheel training.
What happens if I don't know how to drive a manual-shift vehicle? Will Reliable Driving School allow me to do my driver training with an automatic-shift car?
Considering you're a brand new driver, you probably don't know much about driving any type of vehicle--manual-shift or automatic-shift! However, if you prefer to complete your behind-the-wheel training using an automatic-shift vehicle, you should contact Reliable Driving School and let them know before you enroll in their behind-the-wheel training course. That way you will know for certain if they will accommodate you.
Since I live way out in a remote location where driving on unpaved roads and bumpy terrain is the norm, will Reliable Driving School be able to teach me how to drive in a rural environment? Or do they only prepare you for city-driving?
