Since Success Driving School appears on your website, does this mean they are approved by the California DMV to offer driver training courses?

You may want to call Success Driving School directly to find out if they offer a state-certified behind-the-wheel training course.
I heard that parents can fill the role of driving instructor in California, so taking a Santa Clara driving school course like the one Success Driving School offers is not necessary. Is that true?
You should contact the California DMV or a licensed driving school like Success Driving School and ask them. While parent-taught driving instruction is permitted in some states, many states do NOT allow it.
I don't know how to drive using a manual-shift. Will Success Driving School have an automatic-shift car available that I can use for my behind-the-wheel training?
Since you're enrolling in a Santa Clara California driver training class, chances are good that you don't know how to drive either a manual-shift OR an automatic! However, you should let Success Driving School know what your preference is before registering for their driver class. That way you'll know for sure they will accommodate you.
I live in a small rural community, where there are a lot of small, unpaved roads. Will my behind-the-wheel training with Success Driving School include being taught how to drive in rural areas? Or do they just offer training for urban driving?

Are 14-year-olds permitted to obtain a learner's permit in California?
Although a few states allow teen-agers to begin practicing how to drive at 14, most states have set the youngest age for which to receive a learner's permit at either 15 or 15½. You will need to contact the California Department of Motor Vehicles (DMV) or a licensed driving school like Success Driving School to find out what the minimum age for driving is in California.
Can I take Success Driving School's driver training course before taking a Santa Clara California defensive driving classroom course or online course?
It depends on what California's laws prescribe. However, you should know that most states will require teen-aged, first-time drivers to complete both a drivers education classroom course (which are approximately 30 hours in length, depending on California's laws) or an approved online course, plus a state-approved driver training course. We recommend that you contact Success Driving School directly to see if they offer either (or both) of these courses.
