Most states require drivers under the age of 18 to complete at least six hours of the in-car driving lessons with a professional driving school. But no matter what your state requirements are, being trained to drive by an experienced driving instructor from a licensed school is always a good idea.
Receiving qualified drivers training means you'll learn all the latest safe-driving and defensive driving techniques as well as the vital skills needed to handle a car.
Though your drivers training may vary depending on how various driving schools structure their driving lessons, you'll be taught to maneuver a car on streets and highways, learn to merge with traffic, turn a car, park your vehicle, and much more.
If you're between 15 and 18 years old and want to earn your license, the DMV requires that you take a minimum of six hours in the in-car driving lessons with a licensed instructor in a DMV-approved program.
If you are 18 and older, you're not required to take in-car driving lessons, but it's still a good idea to learn safe-driving skills from an experienced instructor. You'll learn what you need to pass your DMV driving test and become a safe driver.
After you've completed the drivers ed theory class, you can take the written test and earn your instruction permit. Since the state requires 6 hours of training with a licensed driving school, you can also sign up for your in-car lessons with DriversEd.com.
If you don't have time to go into the DMV now, and would like to start your in-car driving lessons, you'll want to consider student licensing.
There are two options available to you:
a. The Permit Option (15.5 to 18 years old)
After you complete drivers education you can go to the DMV and take your permit test. After, you can schedule your 6 hours of in-car training with DriversEd.com
Your permit gives you the ability to not only take in-car driving lessons with an instructor but to practice driving with parents after each professional lesson.
b. The Student License Option (15 to 18 years old)
Once you complete drivers education, you can still start in-car driving lessons now even without a permit.
Some teens find it hard to find time to go to the DMV to take their written permit test. If you're in the same boat or if you simply want to save yourself a visit to the DMV, you can start drivers training right away through student licensing.
