Chesapeake Region Safety Council, Inc.FAQ's

Chesapeake Region Safety Council, Inc. is listed on your website as a driving school which offers driver training courses. How do I know if Chesapeake Region Safety Council, Inc. is a licensed school in Maryland?
While we include a list of driver training schools on our website for your convenience, we cannot guarantee that every single one of them is currently licensed by the Maryland DMV.  We suggest you contact Chesapeake Region Safety Council, Inc. directly or the Maryland DMV to find out if Chesapeake Region Safety Council, Inc. is a fully-accredited driver training school.
Somebody told me that I can skip out of attending a driver training school if my parents give me behind-the-wheel training instead. Is that permissible in Maryland?
Each state has its own laws regarding driver training.  Some states will allow parentally-supervised driver training as a substitute for taking a behind-the-wheel training course which is taught by a professional driving instructor.  However, not all states allow this.  You should contact the Maryland DMV to find out for sure.
What happens if I don't know how to drive a manual-shift vehicle? Will Chesapeake Region Safety Council, Inc. allow me to do my driver training with an automatic-shift car?
Considering you're a brand new driver, you probably don't know much about operating any type of automobile--manual-shift or automatic-shift!  However, if you prefer to complete your driver training using an automatic-shift vehicle, you should contact Chesapeake Region Safety Council, Inc. and inform them before you enroll in their behind-the-wheel 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 rugged terrain all around my house. How do I know if Chesapeake Region Safety Council, Inc. 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 Chesapeake Region Safety Council, Inc. is a local driver training company in your area, it's a safe bet that Chesapeake Region Safety Council, Inc. will be motivated (or perhaps required) to teach its local customers how to drive on rough terrain.  If you want to make certain, however, you may want to call Chesapeake Region Safety Council, Inc. to find out exactly what's included in their behind-the-wheel training course before you register with them.
Can 14-year-olds get learner's permits to drive in Maryland?
Most states have set the minimum age for applying for a learner's permit at 15 or 15 1/2.  However, some states do allow 14-year-olds to obtain an instruction permit.  You may want to contact the Maryland DMV or a Maryland-approved driver training school like Chesapeake Region Safety Council, Inc. to find out what the minimum age to drive is in Maryland.
Am I required to take a Maryland classroom or online drivers education course before I can enroll in a driver training course through Chesapeake Region Safety Council, Inc.?
This requirement varies by state but most states do require 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 Chesapeake Region Safety Council, Inc. if they offer one or both programs.
Maryland's DMV has told me that I need to take a driver training course. Do you know if Chesapeake Region Safety Council, Inc. offers this course or not?
