Rockland Driving SchoolFAQ's

Rockland Driving School's contact information is listed on your webpage. How can I know for sure if it is a licensed behind the wheel training school in New York?
Even though we provide a list of behind-the-wheel training schools on our website, we have no way of knowing for sure as to whether or not a particular school is licensed by the New York DMV to offer behind-the-wheel training courses.  We strongly suggest that you contact Rockland Driving School directly or check with the New York DMV to find out for sure if Rockland Driving School is a licensed school.
I've been told that either of my parents can monitor my driver training, so I don't have to attend a Nanuet New York driving school like Rockland Driving School to fulfill my behind-the-wheel training requirement. Do you know if that's true or not?
You will need to contact the New York DMV or a state-approved driver training school like Rockland Driving School to find out.  Some states do allow parent-taught driving, but many states do not.
I have no clue how to drive a manual-shift vehicle. What happens if Rockland Driving School makes me train on a stick-shift vehicle?
Considering the fact you are a brand new driver, you probably don't know much about operating ANY type of vehicle....stick OR automatic!  If you prefer to do your hands-on driver training with an automatic-shift vehicle, you may want to call Rockland Driving School and let them know before you enroll in their behind-the-wheel training course.  That way you'll know for certain whether Rockland Driving School will be able to accommodate you before you pay them any money.
Since I live way out in the country where driving on dirt roads and bumpy terrain is the norm, will Rockland Driving School 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 a remote location, odds are that any local driving school in your area such as Rockland Driving School will want you to be able to drive safely on dirt roads and rugged terrain.  We recommend that you contact Rockland Driving School directly to find out exactly what they offer.
Are 14-year-olds allowed to obtain a learner's permit in New York?
Although a few states allow teen-agers to begin practicing how to drive at 14, most states have set the youngest age for which to hold an instruction permit at either 15 or 15½.  You will need to contact the New York Department of Motor Vehicles (DMV) or a certified driving school like Rockland Driving School to find out what the minimum age for driving is in New York. 
I live in Nanuet New York. Does the law say I have to register for both a drivers education classroom or online course and a driver training course in order to be fully-licensed here?
