Sunshine Safety Council, Inc. (Daytona Beach)FAQ's

Can you tell me if Sunshine Safety Council, Inc. (Daytona Beach) is a licensed driver training school in Florida?
Although Sunshine Safety Council, Inc. (Daytona Beach) is listed on our list of driving schools in your area, we are unable to say with certainty as to whether they are currently licensed to teach behind-the-wheel training courses in Florida.  We recommend either calling Sunshine Safety Council, Inc. (Daytona Beach) directly or the Florida DMV to find out whether or not Sunshine Safety Council, Inc. (Daytona Beach) offers driver training courses that are state-approved.
Will the Florida DMV allow my parents to supervise my driving practice instead of requiring me to take a behind-the-wheel training course at a state-approved driving school?
Possibly.  Some states will allow your parents to supervise your driving practice as a substitute to taking a behind-the-wheel driving course with a professional driving instructor.  You will need to contact the Florida DMV to find out if your behind-the-wheel driving may be done by your parents in Florida.
Do I need to tell Sunshine Safety Council, Inc. (Daytona Beach) that I need to train with an automatic-shift vehicle? I don't know how to operate a manual-shift automobile.
Most new drivers don't know how to operate either a manual-shift OR and automatic-shift vehicle!  We recommend that you ask Sunshine Safety Council, Inc. (Daytona Beach) if you can complete your driver training using an automatic-shift car before you enroll in their driver training course.
Since I live way out in a rural area where driving on dirt roads and rugged terrain is the norm, will Sunshine Safety Council, Inc. (Daytona Beach) be able to teach me how to drive in a non-urban environment? Or do they only prepare you for city-driving?
Since you live in the country, odds are that any local driving school in your area such as Sunshine Safety Council, Inc. (Daytona Beach) will want you to be able to drive safely on unpaved roads and rugged terrain.  We recommend that you contact Sunshine Safety Council, Inc. (Daytona Beach) directly to find out exactly what they offer.
If I'm 14, can I get a driver's permit to drive in Florida?
Possibly.  However, you should be aware that most states require you to be at least 15½ years old before you can get an instruction permit.  We recommend that you contact the Florida Department of Motor Vehicles (DMV) or a certified driving school such as Sunshine Safety Council, Inc. (Daytona Beach) to find out exactly what the minimum age requirement is in Florida.
Can I take Sunshine Safety Council, Inc. (Daytona Beach)'s driver training course before taking a Daytona Beach Florida defensive driving classroom course or online course?
It depends on what Florida's laws say.  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 Florida's laws) or an approved online course, plus a state-approved behind-the-wheel training course.  We recommend that you contact Sunshine Safety Council, Inc. (Daytona Beach) directly to see if they offer either (or both) of these courses.
