Is Winsen Driving School a licensed driving school in California?
Just because a driving school appears on our directory of driver training institutions, we cannot guarantee that they are fully licensed to offer hands-on driving courses in California. We highly recommend that you contact Winsen Driving School directly or the California DMV to find out for sure if Winsen Driving School offers hands-on driving courses that have been approved by the State of California.
Somebody told me that I can skip out of attending a driver training school if my parents give me behind-the-wheel training instead. Is that permissible in California?
Each state has its own laws regarding driver training. Some states will allow parentally-supervised behind-the-wheel training as a substitute for enrolling in a driver training course which is taught by a professional driving instructor. However, not all states allow this. You should contact the California DMV to find out for sure.
Do I need to tell Winsen Driving School that I need to train with an automatic-shift car? I don't know how to operate a stick-shift automobile.
Most new drivers don't know how to operate either a manual-shift OR and automatic-shift car! We recommend that you ask Winsen Driving School if you can complete your behind-the-wheel training using an automatic-shift vehicle before you sign up to take their driver training course.
