Fig's Auto Driving School FAQ's
Is Fig's Auto Driving School licensed by the New York DMV to offer driver training courses?
Although we include Fig's Auto Driving School in our directory of driving schools for Washingtonville New York, we cannot make any assurances about whether or not Fig's Auto Driving School is licensed by the New York DMV. You should contact Fig's Auto Driving School directly and ask them if you are thinking about registering for their Washingtonville New York behind-the-wheel training class.
Will the New York 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 in place of taking a driver training course with a professional driving instructor. You will need to contact the New York DMV to find out if your behind-the-wheel driving may be done by your parents in New York.
I have no clue how to drive a manual-shift vehicle. What happens if Fig's Auto Driving School makes me train on a manual-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 behind-the-wheel training with an automatic-shift vehicle, you may want to call Fig's Auto Driving School and let them know before you enroll in their behind-the-wheel training course. That way you'll know for sure whether Fig's Auto Driving School will be able to accommodate you before you pay them any money.
The area in which I live is mostly undeveloped--very few paved roads and mountains are all around. Will Fig's Auto Driving School be able to teach me how to drive safely on bumpy terrain as well as in a city or town?
Considering that you live in a remote area, chances are excellent that a local driving school like Fig's Auto Driving School will want you to be able to drive safely on unpaved roads and other types of bumpy terrain. You may wish to contact Fig's Auto Driving School to find out exactly what their behind-the-wheel training course includes before signing up to take their training course.
If I'm 14, can I get a driver's permit to drive in New York?
Possibly. However, you should be aware that most states require you to be at least 15½ years old before you can get an instruction permit. We recommend that you contact the New York Department of Motor Vehicles (DMV) or a certified driving school such as Fig's Auto Driving School to find out exactly what the minimum age requirement is in New York.
Can I take Fig's Auto Driving School's driver training course before taking a Washingtonville New York drivers education classroom course or online course?
It depends on what New York's laws say. 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 New York's laws) or an approved online course, plus a state-approved behind-the-wheel training course. We recommend that you contact Fig's Auto Driving School directly to see if they offer either (or both) of these courses.
