American Auto Driving SchoolFAQ's
Can you tell me if American Auto Driving School is a licensed driving school in New York?
Although American Auto 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 New York. We recommend either calling American Auto Driving School directly or the New York DMV to find out whether or not American Auto Driving School offers behind-the-wheel training courses that are state-approved.
Will the New York 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 driver training course with a professional driving instructor. You will need to contact the New York DMV to find out if your driver training may be done by your parents in New York.
What if I don't know how to drive a stick-shift automobile? Does American Auto Driving School have automatic-shift vehicles that I can drive when I do my driver training?
If you're taking a Yonkers New York behind-the-wheel training class, chances are you don't know how to drive ANY vehicle yet-- stick or automatic. However, if you prefer an automatic vehicle then you should tell American Auto Driving School that prior to enrolling in the course in order to make sure they can accommodate you.
I live in a small rural town, where there are a lot of small, unpaved roads. Will my behind-the-wheel training with American Auto Driving School include being taught how to drive in rural areas? Or do they just offer training for urban driving?
Most local driving schools will likely want their students to be taught how to drive safely in the local area. Therefore, chances are good that the behind-the-wheel training you receive from American Auto Driving School will include handling unpaved roads and mountain driving.
I just turned 14 years old. Can I receive my instruction permit in New York?
Probably not. The minimum age requirement for holding an instruction permit in most states is 15 1/2. You should contact the New York Department of Motor Vehicles (DMV) or a licensed driving school such as American Auto Driving School to find out more information about the minimum age requirement in New York.
Will I be required to complete both a drivers education classroom or online course and a driver training course in Yonkers New York?
