U.S. Driving School FAQ's

U.S. Driving School's contact information is listed on your webpage. How can I find out if it is an approved behind the wheel training school in California?
Even though we provide a list of behind-the-wheel training schools on our website, we have no way of knowing for sure as to whether or not a particular school is certified by the California DMV to offer driver training courses.  We strongly suggest that you contact U.S. Driving School directly or check with the California DMV to find out for sure if U.S. Driving School is a licensed school.
Is it true that my mom or dad can be my driving instructor when I do my driver training instead of a professional driving school instructor like the ones they have at U.S. Driving School?
It depends on what your state's laws are.  You should contact the California DMV or a licensed driving school like U.S. Driving School to find out if California allows behind-the-wheel training with a parent.
I don't know how to drive using a manual-shift. Will U.S. Driving School have an automatic-shift car available that I can use for my behind-the-wheel training?
Since you're enrolling in a El Cajon 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 U.S. 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 don't live anywhere near a city. There are dirt roads and rugged terrain all around my house. How do I know if U.S. Driving School will train me on how to drive in a remote area like where I live and not just teach me how to drive in a town-or city-type environment?
Since U.S. Driving School is a local driver training company in your area, it's a safe bet that U.S. Driving School will be motivated (or perhaps required) to teach its local customers how to drive on bumpy terrain.  If you want to make certain, however, you may want to call U.S. Driving School to find out exactly what's included in their driver training course before you register with them.
Are 14-year-olds eligible to apply for a instruction 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 hold 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 U.S. Driving School to find out what the minimum age for driving is in California. 
Can I take U.S. Driving School's driver training course before taking a El Cajon California drivers education 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 U.S. Driving School directly to see if they offer either (or both) of these courses.
California law says that I must enroll in a driver training course in order to get licensed to drive in El Cajon California. Is this something that U.S. Driving School can help me with?
Yes, U.S. Driving School offers the California-approved driver training course.  For more information about their classes and instruction schedule, please contact U.S. Driving School directly.
How do I obtain a drivers license in El Cajon California?
In most states, pre-licensed teens are required to complete both a classroom drivers education course and a behind-the-wheel training course.  U.S. Driving School may be able to help you fulfill the behind-the-wheel training portion in California. 
I live in El Cajon California and would like to apply for my first driver's license. Do I need to take a behind-the-wheel training course before I can be licensed?
California law requires that all new drivers successfully complete an approved behind-the-wheel training program before receiving their California driver's license.  U.S. Driving School may offer a behind-the-wheel training course that you are looking for.  Please contact U.S. Driving School directly for complete information as to what types of driver training courses they offer.
Am I required to receive my learner's permit in California before I am allowed to enroll in a driver training course like the one U.S. Driving School gives its students?
Laws vary from state to state, however most states do require that you receive a learner's permit before you can sign up to take a driver training course like the one that U.S. Driving School gives its students.
