§ 41907 Driver Education Instructor Requirements

Key Takeaways

  • •A driving teacher must pass a special test to teach driving.
  • •The teacher must have a special paper (credential) that says they can teach driving.
  • •If the teacher had an old paper that said they could teach driving before, that still works.

Example

Your friend wants to teach you how to drive.

Your friend can only teach you if they passed a special test and have a paper that says they can teach driving. If they had an old paper that said they could teach driving before, that’s okay too.
