Do I have to take a behind-the-wheel training course? Can't my parents just give me my driver training?
There are some states that do allow parents or guardians to provide their teen-aged kids' required driver training in order to obtain a driver's license. However many states do not allow any type of substitution for enrolling in a professionally-taught behind-the-wheel training course. We suggest you contact your state's DMV to find out what the laws are in your state regarding behind-the-wheel training.
I don't know how to drive using a stick-shift. Will Gigliotti's Driving School have an automatic-shift car available that I can use for my behind-the-wheel training?
Since you're enrolling in a Sauquoit New York driver training class, chances are good that you don't know how to drive either a stick-shift OR an automatic! However, you should let Gigliotti's Driving School know what your preference is before enrolling in their behind-the-wheel class. That way you'll know for sure they will accommodate you.

Can 14-year-olds obtain instruction permits to drive in New York?
Most states have set the minimum age for applying for an instruction permit at 15 or 15 1/2. However, some states do allow 14-year-olds to obtain an instruction permit. You may want to contact the New York DMV or a New York-approved driver training school like Gigliotti's Driving School to find out what the minimum age to drive is in New York.
Can I take Gigliotti's Driving School's behind-the-wheel training course before taking a Sauquoit New York defensive driving classroom course or online course?

We recommend that you contact Gigliotti's Driving School directly to see if they offer either (or both) of these courses.
