Shasta Driving School Inc. FAQ's

Since Shasta Driving School Inc. appears on your website, does this mean they've been approved by the California DMV to offer behind-the-wheel training courses?
The list of driving schools on our webpage is provided as a convenience to our customers only.  We CANNOT guarantee that every single school listed is fully-certified by the California DMV.  You may want to call Shasta Driving School Inc. directly to find out if they offer a state-certified behind-the-wheel training course.
Somebody told me that I can skip out of attending a driver training school if my parents give me behind-the-wheel training instead. Is that permissible in California?
Each state has its own rules regarding behind-the-wheel training.  Some states will allow parentally-supervised behind-the-wheel training as a substitute for enrolling in a driver training course which is taught by a professional driving instructor.  However, not all states allow this.  You should contact the California DMV to find out for sure.
I can't drive a stick-shift. Will Shasta Driving School Inc. allow me to do my driver training on an automatic-shift vehicle?
We recommend that you contact Shasta Driving School Inc. and ask them if you can do your driver training using a vehicle that has an automatic shift before registering for their behind-the-wheel training course.
What happens to those of us who live in a remote area? Will Shasta Driving School Inc. include instruction on how to drive on dirt roads, mountain roads, and other rugged?
If you live in a remote location, there is a high probability that a local driver training school like Shasta Driving School Inc. will either want--or even be required--to tailor their instruction towards driving safely in your particular locale.
I'm turning 14 in a few weeks. Can I get a instruction permit to drive in California after my 14th birthday?
Most likely, no.  Most states (though not all) have laws which require that you be at least 15 or 15 1/2 before to be eligible to apply for a learner's permit.  Nevertheless, you may wish to contact the California DMV office or a California-certified driving school such as Shasta Driving School Inc. to find out for certain what the minimum driving age is in your local area.
Can I take Shasta Driving School Inc.'s driver training course before taking a Redding California drivers education classroom course or online course?
It depends on what California's laws say.  However, you should know that most states will require teen-aged, first-time drivers to complete both a defensive driving 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 Shasta Driving School Inc. directly to see if they offer either (or both) of these courses.
California law says that I must successfully complete a hands-on driver training course in order to get licensed to drive in Redding California. Is this something that Shasta Driving School Inc. can help me with?
Yes, Shasta Driving School Inc. offers the California-approved hands-on driver training course.  For more information about their classes and instruction schedule, please contact Shasta Driving School Inc. directly.
Exactly what type of driver education do I need in Redding California before I can get my California driver's license?
The prerequisites for getting a driver's licenses vary from state to state, however most states now require teen-agers who are looking to get their first driver's license to enroll in a drivers education classroom course as well as a behind-the-wheel training course.  We suggest that you contact a local driver training company such as Shasta Driving School Inc. and ask if they offer a California-approved  behind-the-wheel training course which would meet California's driver's education requirements.
Is there a law in California that requires me to take behind-the-wheel training in order to get my driver's license?
Yes.  State law in California mandates that all teen-agers successfully complete an approved driver training course before receiving a California driver's license.
Am I required to receive my instruction permit in California before I am permitted to sign up to take a driver training course like the one Shasta Driving School Inc. gives its students?
Laws vary from state to state, however most states do require that you hold an learner's permit before you can enroll in a behind-the-wheel training course like the one that Shasta Driving School Inc. gives its students.
