GTZ Driving SchoolFAQ's
Is GTZ Driving School an approved driving school in Texas?
Just because a driving school appears on our directory of driver training institutions, we cannot guarantee that they are fully licensed to offer driver training courses in Texas. We highly recommend that you contact GTZ Driving School directly or the Texas DMV to find out for sure if GTZ Driving School offers driver training courses that have been approved by the State of Texas.
I heard that parents can fill the role of driving supervisor in Texas, so taking a San Antonio behind-the-wheel training course like the one GTZ Driving School offers is not necessary. Is that true?
You should contact the Texas DMV or a licensed driver training school like GTZ Driving School and ask them. While parent-taught driving instruction is permitted in some states, many states do NOT allow it.
What happens if I don't know how to operate a stick-shift vehicle? Will GTZ Driving School allow me to do my driver training with an automatic-shift vehicle?
Considering you're a brand new driver, you probably don't know much about driving any type of car--stick-shift or automatic-shift! However, if you prefer to complete your driver training using an automatic-shift vehicle, you should contact GTZ Driving School and inform them before you sign up to take their driver training course. That way you will know for certain if they will accommodate you.
I live in a small rural community, where there are a lot of small, unpaved roads. Will my behind-the-wheel training with GTZ Driving School include being taught how to drive in rural areas? Or do they just offer training for city driving?
Most local driving schools will likely want their students to know how to drive safely in the local area. Therefore, chances are good that the driver training you receive from GTZ Driving School will include handling unpaved roads and mountain driving.
I just turned 14 years old. Am I eligible to apply for my learner's permit in Texas?
Probably not. The minimum age requirement for holding an instruction permit in most states is 15 1/2. You should contact the Texas Department of Motor Vehicles (DMV) or a licensed driver training institute such as GTZ Driving School to find out more information about the minimum age requirement in Texas.
Do I have to take both a defensive driving classroom course and a driver training course in San Antonio Texas to get my Texas 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 drivers education classroom course and a behind-the-wheel training course. You may want to call a driving instruction company like GTZ Driving School and find out if they offer either (or both) of these programs.
Texas law says that I must enroll in a driver training course in order to get licensed to drive in San Antonio Texas. Is this something that GTZ Driving School can help me with?
Yes, GTZ Driving School offers the Texas-approved hands-on driver training course. For more information about their classes and instruction schedule, please contact GTZ Driving School directly.
What type of driver ed do I need before Texas 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 register for a drivers education classroom or online course as well as a behind-the-wheel training course. GTZ Driving School may be able to help you meet the driver training requirement in Texas. Please contact either GTZ Driving School or the Texas DMV for more information.
Is hands-on driver training required in Texas in order to be licensed to operate a motor vehicle?
Absolutely. All new drivers in Texas are required to take an approved hands-on driver training course before they can get a license to independently drive a motor vehicle.
Is it all right if I enroll in a driver training school like GTZ Driving School prior to my receiving my learner's permit?
In most states, you are required to have already gotten your instruction permit before you enroll in your behind-the-wheel training course like the one offered by GTZ Driving School. We suggest you contact either GTZ Driving School to find out more information.
