DRIVE ED COM LICENSE
DRIVE ED COM PROFESSIONAL
Students can take DE/DT in a California secondary school or in a state-licensed, professional driving school. DT can’t exceed two hours per day, and if you’re in the car observing another driver, that time does not count toward your six-hour requirement. DT must consist of at least six hours of behind-the-wheel training with a professional driving instructor. To learn more, check out the DE Curriculum.ĭriver training (DT) gives you the opportunity to practice driving in real-world situations. If you choose to do a home study or internet training program, it must meet the same requirements as classroom instruction. It must consist of either 30 hours or 2 1/2 semester periods of professional classroom instruction (not including breaks or meal times) or a home study or internet training program.
