Is Safe Teen Driving Academy certified by the Georgia DMV to offer behind-the-wheel training courses?
Although we include Safe Teen Driving Academy in our directory of driving schools for Columbus Georgia, we cannot make any assurances about whether or not Safe Teen Driving Academy is certified by the Georgia DMV.

Could I just have my mother or father teach me how to drive instead of paying money to enroll in a professional driver training course?
It depends on which state you live in. There are some states which permit you to complete your hands-on driver training with a parent or guardian instead of enrolling in a professional driving school. However many states require that first-time drivers take a professionally-taught driver training course. We recommend that you check with your state's DMV office to find out if your parent or guardian can fill the role as your behind-the-wheel driving instructor.
I don't know how to drive using a stick-shift. Will Safe Teen Driving Academy have an automatic-shift car available that I can use for my behind-the-wheel training?
Since you're enrolling in a Columbus Georgia behind-the-wheel training class, chances are good that you don't know how to drive either a manual-shift OR an automatic! However, you should let Safe Teen Driving Academy know what your preference is before enrolling in their driver class. That way you'll know for sure they will accommodate you.
Since I live way out in a rural area where driving on unpaved roads and rugged terrain is the norm, will Safe Teen Driving Academy be able to teach me how to drive in a non-urban environment? Or do they only prepare you for city-driving?

Are 14-year-olds allowed to apply for a instruction permit in Georgia?
Although a few states allow teen-agers to begin practicing how to drive at 14, most states have set the minimum age for which to receive a learner's permit at either 15 or 15½. You will need to contact the Georgia Department of Motor Vehicles (DMV) or a licensed driving instruction company like Safe Teen Driving Academy to find out what the minimum age for driving is in Georgia.
Can I take Safe Teen Driving Academy's behind-the-wheel training course before taking a Columbus Georgia drivers education classroom course or online course?
It depends on what Georgia's laws say. 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 Georgia's laws) or an approved online course, plus a state-approved driver training course.
