Watson Driving SchoolFAQ's

Can you tell me if Watson Driving School is a certified driver training school in California?
Although Watson Driving School is listed on our list of driving schools in your area, we are unable to say with certainty as to whether they are currently approved to teach driver training courses in California.  We recommend either calling Watson Driving School directly or the California DMV to find out whether or not Watson Driving School offers hands-on driving courses that are state-approved.
I've been told that either of my parents can monitor my behind-the-wheel training, so I don't have to attend a Monterey Park California driving school like Watson Driving School to fulfill my driver training requirement. Do you know if that's true or not?
You will need to contact the California DMV or a state-approved driver training school like Watson Driving School to find out.  Some states do allow parent-taught driving, but many states do not.
Do you know if Watson Driving School will let me complete my driver training using an automatic-shift vehicle? I don't know anything about using a manual-shift.
Considering you're a brand new driver, you probably don't know a whole lot about driving ANY type of vehicle, be it a manual OR an automatic!  Nevertheless, if you have a preference, you probably should contact Watson Driving School and see if they can accommodate you before signing up to take their driver training course.
What happens to those of us who live in a remote area? Will Watson Driving School include instruction on how to drive on dirt roads, mountain roads, and other rugged?
If you live in a remote location, there is a high probability that a local driving school like Watson Driving School will either want--or even be required--to tailor their instruction towards driving safely in your particular area.
After I turn 14, will I be eligible to obtain my instruction permit so I can begin to learn how to drive?
It depends on which state you live in, however most states unfortunately require you to be at least 15 (or sometimes 15 1/2) before you can be issued a learner's permit.  We suggest that you contact a local driver training school such as Watson Driving School or the California DMV office to learn more about the minimum age requirement for driving in California.
Do I have to take both a defensive driving classroom course and a driver training course in Monterey Park California to get my California driver's license?
The laws vary depending on which state you live in, but most states do require that pre-licensed drivers enroll in a defensive driving classroom course and a behind-the-wheel training course.  You may want to call a driving instruction company like Watson Driving School and find out if they offer either (or both) of these programs.
I'm required to take a driver training course in Monterey Park California. Do you know if Watson Driving School offers driver training classes in Monterey Park California?
Yes, Watson Driving School does offer driver training courses in Monterey Park California.  For more information about their class schedule and how/when to enroll in one of their driver training courses, please contact Watson Driving School directly.
What type of driver ed do I need before California 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 safe driving classroom or online course as well as a driver training course.  Watson Driving School may be able to help you meet the behind-the-wheel training requirement in California.  Please contact either Watson Driving School or the California DMV for more information.
Is it necessary for me to enroll in a behind-the-wheel training course in order to get my first California driver's license?
Yes, it is.  All teen-aged drivers applying for their first driver's license in California are required to take a state-approved driver training course.
Can I enroll in a California-certified driver training course even if I don't have my California instruction permit yet?
Most likely, no.  Most states have laws that mandate a pre-licensed driver to have obtained a California instruction permit before registering in a California driver training course.  It would be best for you to contact a driving school such as Watson Driving School and ask for more information.
