Drive Now FAQ's
Is Drive Now an approved driving school in Maryland?
Just because a driving school appears on our directory of driver training institutions, we cannot guarantee that they are fully licensed to offer behind-the-wheel training courses in Maryland. We highly recommend that you contact Drive Now directly or the Maryland DMV to find out for sure if Drive Now offers behind-the-wheel training courses that have been approved by the State of Maryland.
Will the Maryland DMV allow my parents to supervise my driving practice instead of requiring me to take a behind-the-wheel training course at a state-approved driving school?
Possibly. Some states will allow your parents to supervise your driving practice as a substitute to taking a driver training course with a professional driving instructor. You will need to contact the Maryland DMV to find out if your behind-the-wheel driving may be done by your parents in Maryland.
I can't operate a stick-shift. Will Drive Now allow me to do my driver training on an automatic-shift vehicle?
We recommend that you contact Drive Now and ask them if you can do your driver training using a vehicle that has an automatic shift before signing up to take their driver training course.
I live in a very rural area, where there are mountains and a lot of unpaved roads. Do you know if Drive Now teaches students how to drive in rural areas like where I live instead of just driving on smooth, paved roads in urban areas?
Since you live in a rural area, a local driving school such as Drive Now will tailor your driver training to handle the conditions in your area.
I just turned 14 years old. Can I apply for my instruction permit in Maryland?
Probably not. The minimum age requirement for holding a learners permit in most states is 15 1/2. You should contact the Maryland Department of Motor Vehicles (DMV) or a licensed driver training institute such as Drive Now to find out more information about the minimum age requirement in Maryland.
Can I take Drive Now's driver training course before taking a Baltimore Maryland defensive driving classroom course or online course?
It depends on what Maryland's laws prescribe. However, you should know that most states will require teen-aged, first-time drivers to complete both a drivers education classroom course (which are approximately 30 hours in length, depending on Maryland's laws) or an approved online course, plus a state-approved behind-the-wheel training course. We recommend that you contact Drive Now directly to see if they offer either (or both) of these courses.
I have to take a behind-the-wheel training course in Baltimore Maryland. Can I meet this requirement by registering with Drive Now?

How do I obtain a drivers license in Baltimore Maryland?
In most states, pre-licensed teens are required to complete both a classroom safe driving course and a driver training course. Drive Now may be able to help you meet the driver training portion in Maryland.
What are the laws in Maryland concerning driver training courses? Do I have to take one to get my driver's license?
Yes, you do. Maryland law states that new drivers enroll in an approved behind-the-wheel training course as a prerequisite to getting their first driver's license.
Do I need to have my learner's permit before I sign up to take a behind-the-wheel training course like the one that Drive Now offers?
