Discovery Traffic SchoolFAQ's
Is Discovery Traffic School a certified driving school in Florida?
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 Florida. We highly recommend that you contact Discovery Traffic School directly or the Florida DMV to find out for sure if Discovery Traffic School offers driver training courses that have been approved by the State of Florida.
Is it true that my mom or dad can be my driving instructor when I do my driver training instead of a professional driver training school instructor like the ones they have at Discovery Traffic School?
It depends on what your state's laws are. You should contact the Florida DMV or a licensed driver training school like Discovery Traffic School to find out if Florida allows driver training with a parent.
What if I don't know how to operate a vehicle with a stick-shift? Does Discovery Traffic School have an automatic-shift vehicle they'll allow me train with?
Since you're just learning how to drive, you probably don't know how to operate either a manual-shift or an automatic-shift vehicle! However, if you have a preference as to a stick or an automatic, you probably should call Discovery Traffic School to see if they can accommodate your request prior to your enrolling in their driver training course.
What happens to those of us who live in a rural area? Will Discovery Traffic School include instruction on how to drive on dirt roads, mountain roads, and other rugged?
If you live in a rural location, there is a high probability that a local driving school like Discovery Traffic School will either want--or even be required--to tailor their instruction towards driving safely in your particular area.
Can I get my Florida learner's permit once I turn 14?
Most likely, no. Most states have set the youngest age to obtain an instruction permit at 15 or 15½. You may want to contact the Florida Department of Motor Vehicles (DMV) or a licensed driver training school like Discovery Traffic School to learn more about the minimum age requirement in Florida.
Do I have to take a Apopka Florida classroom or online drivers education course before I can sign up to take a driver training course through Discovery Traffic School?
This requirement varies from state to state but most states do mandate pre-licensed drivers to take BOTH a classroom-based defensive driving course (generally 30 hours in length) AND a driver training course. You should ask Discovery Traffic School if they offer one or both programs.
I have to take a behind-the-wheel training course in Apopka Florida. Can I meet this requirement by enrolling in Discovery Traffic School?
Yes, Discovery Traffic School offers drivers education courses in Apopka Florida. You will need to contact Discovery Traffic School directly to get more information on the types of courses they offer and when to register for a class.
What do I need to do to get a Florida drivers license in Apopka Florida?
Most states require that teen-agers who are applying for their first driver's license complete both a safe driving classroom course and a driver training course. Discovery Traffic School may be able to help you fulfill the behind-the-wheel training portion in Florida. Please contact Discovery Traffic School for more information.
What does the law in Florida say about driver training courses? Do I have to take one to get my driver's license?
Yes, you do. Florida law states that new drivers take an approved driver training course as a prerequisite to getting their first driver's license.
Can I register for a Florida-approved behind-the-wheel training course even if I don't have my Florida instruction permit yet?
Most likely, no. Most states have laws that mandate a pre-licensed driver to have obtained a Florida learners permit before registering in a Florida driver training course. It would be best for you to contact a driving school such as Discovery Traffic School and ask for more information.
