Good Turns Driving AcademyFAQ's

How do I know if Good Turns Driving Academy is licensed by Texas's DMV to offer driver training courses?
While we do include Good Turns Driving Academy's contact information in our driving school directory, we cannot say with certainty as to whether Good Turns Driving Academy is licensed by the State of Texas.  We recommend that you either contact Good Turns Driving Academy directly or possibly the Texas DMV to find out if Good Turns Driving Academy is a certified driver training school.
Do you know if I can complete my driver training with my mother or father instead of attending a behind-the-wheel training course like the ones offered by Good Turns Driving Academy?
Some states allow teen-agers to do their driver training with their parents instead of attending a professional driver training school.  We recommend that you contact the Texas DMV or Good Turns Driving Academy directly to find out if Texas allows parent-taught driver training.
I can't drive a manual-shift. Will Good Turns Driving Academy allow me to complete my driver training on an automatic-shift vehicle?
We recommend that you contact Good Turns Driving Academy and ask them if you can do your driver training using a vehicle that has an automatic shift before registering for their behind-the-wheel training course.
I don't live anywhere near a city. There are unpaved roads and bumpy terrain all around my house. How do I know if Good Turns Driving Academy will train me on how to drive in a rural area like where I live and not just teach me how to drive in a town-or city-type environment?
Since Good Turns Driving Academy is a local driver training company in your area, it's a safe bet that Good Turns Driving Academy will be motivated (or perhaps required) to teach its local customers how to drive on rugged terrain.  If you want to make certain, however, you may want to call Good Turns Driving Academy to find out exactly what's included in their behind-the-wheel training course before you register with them.
I just turned 14 years old. Am I eligible to receive my learner's permit in Texas?
Probably not.  The minimum age requirement for holding a learners permit in most states is 15 1/2.  You should contact the Texas Department of Motor Vehicles (DMV) or a licensed driver training institute such as Good Turns Driving Academy to find out more information about the minimum age requirement in Texas. 
Can I take Good Turns Driving Academy's driver training course before taking a Grand Prairie Texas drivers education classroom course or online course?
It depends on what Texas's laws prescribe.  However, you should know that most states will require teen-aged, first-time drivers to complete both a defensive driving classroom course (which are approximately 30 hours in length, depending on Texas's laws) or an approved online course, plus a state-approved driver training course.  We recommend that you contact Good Turns Driving Academy directly to see if they offer either (or both) of these courses.
I'm required to take a behind-the-wheel training course in Grand Prairie Texas. Do you know if Good Turns Driving Academy offers behind-the-wheel training classes in Grand Prairie Texas?
Yes, Good Turns Driving Academy does offer behind-the-wheel training courses in Grand Prairie Texas.  For more information about their class schedule and how/when to enroll in one of their defensive driving courses, please contact Good Turns Driving Academy directly.
What type of driver ed do I need before Texas will give me a driver's license?
Each state has its own requirements concerning drivers education, although you should know that most states now require all new, young drivers to complete a drivers education classroom or online course as well as a behind-the-wheel training course.  Good Turns Driving Academy may be able to help you fulfill the behind-the-wheel training requirement in Texas.  Please contact either Good Turns Driving Academy or the Texas DMV for more information.
Is it necessary for me to enroll in a driver training course in order to get my first Texas driver's license?
Yes, it is.  All teen-aged drivers applying for their first driver's license in Texas must complete a state-approved driver training course.
Can I register for a Texas behind-the-wheel training course prior to having my Texas learners permit?
Most states require pre-licensed drivers to hold a instruction permit before being permitted to enroll in a driver training course.  You should contact a driving school like Good Turns Driving Academy and ask for more information.
