Yes you can.
One reason students pick drivers ed is that it is flexible. Life gets busy. Between school, sports, homework, jobs and family activities it is hard to fit in another class.
With drivers education you choose when to study.
Want to do a lesson after school? You can do it then.
Prefer to study on weekends? That is okay too.
A California DMV-approved drivers ed course lets you learn at your own pace and still meet the states requirements.
You will learn about traffic laws, road signs, safe driving habits and how to handle driving situations. After you finish the course you get the certificate you need to move with getting your permit.
Keep in mind that drivers ed is one step. You still have to pass the permit test and do the required driving practice before you can get your license.
The good news is that you can start learning whenever it works for you.
That is why drivers ed is a popular choice, for California teens and their families.
