Sharpstown Driving SchoolFAQ's

Can you tell me if Sharpstown Driving School is a licensed driver training school in Texas?
Although Sharpstown 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 certified to teach driver training courses in Texas.  We recommend either calling Sharpstown Driving School directly or the Texas DMV to find out whether or not Sharpstown Driving School offers hands-on driving courses that are state-approved.
Do I have to take a driver training course? Can't my parents just give me my driver training?
There are some states that do allow parents or guardians to provide their teen-aged kids' required behind-the-wheel training in order to obtain a driver's license.  However many states do not allow any type of substitution for attending a professionally-taught driver training course.  We suggest you contact your state's DMV to find out what the laws are in your state regarding hands-on driving instruction.
What if I don't know how to drive a vehicle with a stick-shift? Does Sharpstown Driving School have an automatic-shift vehicle they'll let me train with?
Since you're just learning how to drive, you probably don't know how to operate either a stick-shift or an automatic-shift vehicle!  However, if you have a preference as to a stick or an automatic, you probably should call Sharpstown Driving School to see if they can accommodate your request prior to your enrolling in their driver training course.
What happens to those of us who live in a remote area? Will Sharpstown Driving School include instruction on how to drive on dirt roads, mountain roads, and other bumpy terrain?

After I turn 14, will I be eligible to get my learner's 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 Sharpstown Driving School or the Texas DMV office to learn more about the minimum age requirement for driving in Texas.
Do I have to take a Houston Texas classroom or online drivers education course before I can sign up to take a driver training course through Sharpstown Driving School?
This requirement varies from state to state but most states do mandate pre-licensed drivers to take BOTH a classroom-based defensive driving course (generally 30 hours in length) AND a driver training course.  You should ask Sharpstown Driving School if they offer one or both programs.

The prerequisites for getting a driver's licenses vary from state to state, however most states now require teen-agers who are looking to get their first driver's license to complete a safe driving classroom course as well as a behind-the-wheel training course.  We suggest that you contact a local driver training company such as Sharpstown Driving School and ask if they offer a Texas-approved  driver training course which would satisfy Texas's driver's education requirements.
