For Teens

I finished the Drivers Education and got my pink certificate. How soon can I start my Drivers training?
First, you need to take your pink certificate and the Enrollment Certificate (white) and go to the DMV and take the written test to get your permit. Then call us to schedule your first lesson.
So, I can drive with my parents as soon as I get my permit?
NO, the DMV will inform you that your permit is not valid until you have completed your first 2 hour lesson with an instructor. He will then sign your permit making it valid.
After I finish all three lessons, can I schedule my DMV drive test?
No, you have to have your permit at least six months to be eligible to schedule your DMV test.
What if I lose my permit?
If you lose your permit, you can go to the DMV and they will print another one for you.
I have football practice after school, how hard is it to get an appointment?
We have several instructors and have a very flexible schedule, including weekends.
Do I need to have a permit to start behind the wheel training?
Students do not need to have a permit to take behind the wheel training with Local Driving School. Local Driving School can issue a student license (OL800) to students 15 years of age or older. This allows the student to drive with Local Driving School’s instructors only, before obtaining a permit. Please add a link to show a picture of the Student License (OL 800) Please review the attachments to find a picture of this form.
