Mark's Private Driver Training SchoolFAQ's

Is Mark's Private Driver Training School an approved driving school in Pennsylvania?
Just because a driving school appears on our directory of driver training institutions, we cannot guarantee that they are fully licensed to offer hands-on driving courses in Pennsylvania.  We highly recommend that you contact Mark's Private Driver Training School directly or the Pennsylvania DMV to find out for sure if Mark's Private Driver Training School offers behind-the-wheel training courses that have been approved by the State of Pennsylvania.
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 driver 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.
Do you know if Mark's Private Driver Training School will let me take my driver training using an automatic-shift vehicle? I don't know anything about using a stick-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 Mark's Private Driver Training School and see if they can accommodate you before registering for their driver training course.
I live in a small mountain community, where there are a lot of small, unpaved roads. Will my driver training with Mark's Private Driver Training School include learning how to drive in rural areas? Or do they just offer training for urban 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 Mark's Private Driver Training School will include handling unpaved roads and mountain driving.
After I turn 14, will I be eligible to get my instruction 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 Mark's Private Driver Training School or the Pennsylvania DMV office to learn more about the minimum age requirement for driving in Pennsylvania.
Do I have to complete a Hop Bottom Pennsylvania drivers education classroom course or online course before enrolling in one of Mark's Private Driver Training School's behind-the-wheel training courses?
Each state has its own rules, but most states will require first-time drivers to take both a driver training course plus either a defensive driving classroom course (which are about 30 hours in length) or an approved online defensive driving course.  You may want to ask Mark's Private Driver Training School if they offer one or both programs.
