Western Connecticut Driving School FAQ's

Is Western Connecticut Driving School licensed by the Connecticut DMV to offer driver training courses?
Although we include Western Connecticut Driving School in our directory of driving schools for Brookfield Connecticut, we cannot make any assurances about whether or not Western Connecticut Driving School is certified by the Connecticut DMV.  You should contact Western Connecticut Driving School directly and ask them if you are thinking about enrolling in their Brookfield Connecticut driver training class.
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 Connecticut?
Each state has its own rules regarding behind-the-wheel training.  Some states will allow parentally-supervised driver training as a substitute for taking a driver training course which is taught by a professional driving instructor.  However, not all states allow this.  You should contact the Connecticut DMV to find out for sure.
Do you know if Western Connecticut Driving School will let me complete my driver training using an automatic-shift vehicle? I don't know anything about using a manual-shift.
Considering you're a brand new driver, you probably don't know a whole lot about driving ANY type of vehicle, be it a manual OR an automatic!  Nevertheless, if you have a preference, you probably should contact Western Connecticut Driving School and see if they can accommodate you before registering for their driver training course.
I live in a small rural town, where there are a lot of small, unpaved roads. Will my behind-the-wheel training with Western Connecticut Driving School include being taught how to drive in remote areas? Or do they just offer training for city driving?
Most local driving schools will likely want their students to be taught how to drive safely in the local area.  Therefore, chances are good that the driver training you receive from Western Connecticut Driving School will include handling dirt roads and mountain driving.
After I turn 14, will I be eligible to get my learner's permit so I can begin to learn how to drive?
It depends on which state you live in, however most states unfortunately require you to be at least 15 (or sometimes 15 1/2) before you can be issued a instruction permit.  We suggest that you contact a local driver training school such as Western Connecticut Driving School or the Connecticut DMV office to learn more about the minimum age requirement for driving in Connecticut.
Will I be required to complete both a drivers education classroom or online course and a behind-the-wheel training course in Brookfield Connecticut?

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 register for a safe driving classroom course as well as a behind-the-wheel training course.  We suggest that you contact a local driver training company such as Western Connecticut Driving School and ask if they offer a Connecticut-approved  behind-the-wheel training course which would meet Connecticut's driver's education requirements.
