Galaxy Driving School FAQ's
Galaxy Driving School's contact information is listed on your webpage. How can I find out if it is an approved driver training school in Illinois?
Even though we provide a list of driver training schools on our website, we have no way of knowing for sure as to whether or not a particular school is licensed by the Illinois DMV to offer behind-the-wheel training courses. We strongly suggest that you contact Galaxy Driving School directly or check with the Illinois DMV to find out for sure if Galaxy Driving School is a licensed school.
Could I just have my mother or father teach me how to drive instead of paying money to take a professional driver training course?
It depends on which state you live in. There are some states which allow you to do your hands-on driver training with a parent or guardian instead of enrolling in a professional driving school. However many states require that new drivers take a professionally-taught behind-the-wheel training course. We recommend that you check with your state's DMV office to find out if your parent or guardian can fill the role as your behind-the-wheel driving instructor.
What if I don't know how to operate a vehicle with a stick-shift? Does Galaxy Driving School have an automatic-shift vehicle they'll allow me train with?

However, if you have a preference as to a manual or an automatic, you probably should call Galaxy Driving School to see if they can accommodate your request prior to your enrolling in their driver training course.
