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 attending 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 hands-on driving instruction.
What if I don't know how to operate a stick-shift automobile? Does William Driving School have automatic-shift vehicles that I can drive when I do my behind-the-wheel training?
If you're taking a Oakland California driver training class, chances are you don't know how to drive ANY vehicle yet-- manual or automatic. However, if you prefer an automatic vehicle then you should tell William Driving School that prior to signing up to take the course in order to make sure they can accommodate you.
