Varsity Driving Academy FAQ’s
Is Varsity Driving Academy certified by the California DMV to offer behind-the-wheel training courses?
Although we include Varsity Driving Academy in our directory of driving schools for Irvine California, we cannot make any assurances about whether or not Varsity Driving Academy is certified by the California DMV. You should contact Varsity Driving Academy directly and ask them if you are thinking about signing up to take their Irvine California behind-the-wheel training class.
I heard that parents can fill the role of driving instructor in California, so taking a Irvine driving school course like the one Varsity Driving Academy offers is not necessary. Is that true?
You should contact the California DMV or a licensed driver training school like Varsity Driving Academy and ask them. While parent-taught driving instruction is permitted in some states, many states do NOT allow it.
I have no clue how to drive a manual-shift vehicle. What happens if Varsity Driving Academy makes me train on a stick-shift vehicle?
Considering the fact you are a brand new driver, you probably don't know much about operating ANY type of vehicle....manual OR automatic! If you prefer to do your hands-on driver training with an automatic-shift vehicle, you may want to call Varsity Driving Academy and let them know before you enroll in their driver training course. That way you'll know for sure whether Varsity Driving Academy will be able to accommodate you before you pay them any money.
I don't live anywhere near a city. There are dirt roads and bumpy terrain all around my house. How do I know if Varsity Driving Academy will train me on how to drive in a rural area like where I live and not just teach me how to drive in a town-or city-type environment?
Since Varsity Driving Academy is a local driver training company in your area, it's a safe bet that Varsity Driving Academy 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 Varsity Driving Academy to find out exactly what's included in their driver training course before you sign up with them.
After I turn 14, will I be eligible to get my instruction permit so I can begin to learn how to drive?
It depends on which state you live in, however most states unfortunately require you to be at least 15 (or sometimes 15 1/2) before you can be issued a learner's permit. We suggest that you contact a local driver training school such as Varsity Driving Academy or the California DMV office to learn more about the minimum age requirement for driving in California.
I live in Irvine California. Does the law say I have to take both a drivers education classroom or online course and a driver training course in order to be fully-licensed here?
Each state has its own laws in regards to licensing procedures. However, most states do mandate that new, teen-aged drivers take both a driver training course plus either a drivers education online course or drivers education classroom course .
I have to take a drivers education course in Irvine California. Can I meet this requirement by enrolling in Varsity Driving Academy?

What are the requirements in Irvine California for getting a drivers license?
It depends on your state's laws, however in many states, teen-agers must complete both a drivers education classroom course and a driver training course. Varsity Driving Academy may offer an approved driver training course which you could take. Please contact Varsity Driving Academy for information regarding their available classes and how to go about signing up for them.
What does the law in California say about driver training courses? Do I have to take one to get my driver's license?
Yes, you do. California law states that new drivers successfully complete an approved driver training course as a prerequisite to obtaining their first driver's license.Â
Is it possible to sign up to take a California-approved behind-the-wheel training course before I obtain my California instruction permit?
