Kerry Professional Driving SchoolFAQ's

Kerry Professional Driving School is listed on your website as a driving school which offers driver training courses. How do I know if Kerry Professional Driving School is a licensed school in New York?
While we include a list of driving schools on our website for your convenience, we cannot guarantee that every single one of them is currently licensed by the New York DMV.  We suggest you contact Kerry Professional Driving School directly or the New York DMV to find out if Kerry Professional Driving School is a fully-accredited driver training school.
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 in place of taking a driver training course with a professional driving instructor.  You will need to contact the New York DMV to find out if your behind-the-wheel driving may be done by your parents in New York.
What happens if I don't know how to operate a stick-shift vehicle? Will Kerry Professional Driving School allow me to do my behind-the-wheel training with an automatic-shift automobile?
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 Kerry Professional Driving School and inform them before you enroll in their driver training course.  That way you will know for certain if they will accommodate you.
I don't live anywhere near a city. There are unpaved roads and bumpy terrain all around my house. How do I know if Kerry Professional Driving School will train me on how to drive in a remote area like where I live and not just teach me how to drive in a town-or city-type environment?
Since Kerry Professional Driving School is a local driver training company in your area, it's a safe bet that Kerry Professional Driving School will be motivated (or perhaps required) to teach its local customers how to drive on bumpy terrain.  If you want to make certain, however, you may want to call Kerry Professional Driving School to find out exactly what's included in their behind-the-wheel training course before you register with them.
Can I get my New York learner's permit once I turn 14?
Most likely, no.  Most states have set the minimum age to obtain an instruction permit at 15 or 15½.  You may want to contact the New York Department of Motor Vehicles (DMV) or a certified driver training school like Kerry Professional Driving School to learn more about the minimum age requirement in New York.
Do I have to complete a Middletown New York drivers education classroom course or online course before registering for one of Kerry Professional Driving School's behind-the-wheel training courses?
Each state has its own laws, but most states will require first-time drivers to take both a driver training course plus either a drivers education classroom course (which are about 30 hours in length) or an approved online drivers education course.  You may want to ask Kerry Professional Driving School if they offer one or both programs.
If I need to enroll in a Middletown New York driving school, can Kerry Professional Driving School help?

Exactly what type of driver training do I need in Middletown New York before I can get my New York 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 Kerry Professional Driving School and ask if they offer a New York-approved  behind-the-wheel training course which would fulfill New York's driver's education requirements.
Is there a law in New York that says I have to take behind-the-wheel training in order to get my driver's license?
Yes.  State law in New York requires that all teen-agers enroll in an approved behind-the-wheel training course before receiving a New York driver's license.
Will New York allow me to enroll in a driver training course before I actually receive my instruction permit?
You will need to contact your state's DMV office to find out.  However, most states require that you receive your instruction permit before you register with a driver training course.
