Allen Driving SchoolFAQ's

Allen Driving School's contact information is listed on your webpage. How can I find out if it is a licensed driver training school in Georgia?
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 Georgia DMV to offer driver training courses.  We strongly suggest that you contact Allen Driving School directly or check with the Georgia DMV to find out for sure if Allen Driving School is a licensed school.
Will the Georgia DMV allow my parents to supervise my driving practice instead of requiring me to take a behind-the-wheel training course at a state-approved driving school?
Possibly.  Some states will allow your parents to supervise your driving practice as a substitute to taking a behind-the-wheel driving course with a professional driving instructor.  You will need to contact the Georgia DMV to find out if your driver training may be done by your parents in Georgia.
I have no clue how to drive a stick-shift vehicle. What happens if Allen Driving School makes me train on a manual-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 Allen Driving School and let them know before you sign up to take their behind-the-wheel training course.  That way you'll know for certain whether Allen Driving School can 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 Allen Driving School be able to teach me how to drive in a rural environment? Or do they only prepare you for city-driving?
Since you live in a rural area, odds are that any local driving school in your area such as Allen Driving School will want you to be able to drive safely on dirt roads and bumpy terrain.  We recommend that you contact Allen Driving School directly to find out exactly what they offer.
After I turn 14, will I be eligible to get 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 instruction permit.  We suggest that you contact a local driver training school such as Allen Driving School or the Georgia DMV office to learn more about the minimum age requirement for driving in Georgia.
Do you know if the laws in Georgia require new teen-aged drivers to take a behind-the-wheel training course in addition to a driver ed classroom or online course?
The laws vary from state to state, but many states do require you to successfully complete a behind-the-wheel training course with "hands-on" practice in addition to a driver ed classroom or online course.
Georgia's DMV has told me that I need to take a driver training course. Do you know if Allen Driving School offers this course or not?
Allen Driving School does offer the behind-the-wheel training course that Georgia requires all new teen-aged drivers to take.  For more information about the courses Allen Driving School offers, we recommend that you contact Allen Driving School directly.
Exactly what type of driver training do I need in Decatur Georgia before I can get my Georgia driver's license?
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 enroll in a safe driving classroom course as well as a driver training course.  We suggest that you contact a local driver training company such as Allen Driving School and ask if they offer a Georgia-approved  behind-the-wheel training course which would satisfy Georgia's driver's education requirements.
What are the laws in Georgia concerning driver training courses? Do I have to take one to get my driver's license?
Yes, you do.  Georgia law states that new drivers successfully complete an approved behind-the-wheel training course as a prerequisite to getting their first driver's license. 
Is it all right if I enroll in a behind-the-wheel training school like Allen Driving School prior to my obtaining my instruction permit?
