Columbia Driving School FAQ's
Can you tell me if Columbia Driving School is a certified driving school in Missouri?
Although Columbia Driving School is listed on our list of driving schools in your area, we are unable to say with certainty as to whether they are currently certified to teach behind-the-wheel training courses in Missouri. We recommend either calling Columbia Driving School directly or the Missouri DMV to find out whether or not Columbia Driving School offers driver training courses that are state-approved.
Do you know if I can complete my driver training with my mother or father instead of attending a driving school like Columbia Driving School?
Some states allow teen-agers to do their behind-the-wheel training with their parents instead of attending a professional driver training school. We recommend that you contact the Missouri DMV or Columbia Driving School directly to find out if Missouri allows parent-taught driver training.
What happens if I don't know how to drive a manual-shift vehicle? Will Columbia Driving School allow me to do my behind-the-wheel training with an automatic-shift vehicle?
Considering you're a brand new driver, you probably don't know much about operating any type of automobile--stick-shift or automatic-shift! However, if you prefer to complete your driver training using an automatic-shift vehicle, you should contact Columbia Driving School and let them know before you register for their driver training course. That way you will know for certain if they will accommodate you.
I live in a very rural area, where there are mountains and a lot of unpaved roads. Do you know if Columbia Driving School teaches students how to drive in rural areas like where I live instead of just driving on smooth, paved roads in urban areas?
Since you live in a rural area, a local driving school such as Columbia Driving School will tailor your driver training to handle the conditions in your area.
I'm turning 14 in a few days. Can I get a instruction permit to drive in Missouri after my 14th birthday?

Nevertheless, you may wish to contact the Missouri DMV office or a Missouri-certified driving school such as Columbia Driving School to find out for certain what the minimum driving age is in your local area.
