FAQ’s

Where do I start?

Teenagers (15-17) are required to take a TDLR approved Driver Education classroom and in-car program. This must include 32 classroom hours plus 7 driving hours and 7 observing hours. The driving is completed in a two-hour session (1 drive/ 1 observe).

When does the next concurrent teen class start?

We start new classes every three weeks. See listing above for upcoming classes

How do I enroll my child in a class?

We pre-register for all of our classes. If you would like to sign a student up you will need to come to the office and fill out the required paperwork and bring a form of payment. This usually takes about 15-20 minutes to complete. You do not need any legal documents at this time. The student does not need to be present to enroll, however, the parent or legal guardian does. This can be done during our office hours.

How does the classroom work?

The classes are typically everyday for three weeks; the last week includes a Saturday class. This may differ during holidays. The DPS test (to obtain the permit) is given on the third day of class and the certificates are awarded on the fourth day of class.

What if I’m absent?

Any absence must be made up. We offer make-up days regularly. However, ALWAYS double check with the secretary to verify a make-up date and time, as they vary. If you miss more than 5 days (10 classroom hours) the contract will be terminated and the student must re-enroll.

What if I’m going to be late or need to leave early?

TDLR requires that students CANNOT miss more than 10 minutes of any class. Therefore, if you arrive more than 10 minutes late or need to leave more than 10 minutes early the student will not receive credit for the class.

How do I get the permit?

In order to obtain a permit the student must meet several requirements:

Be at least 15 years old
Be enrolled in a driver’s education program
Have completed the first 3 days of the classroom portion
Pass the Road Rules and Road Signs test (DPS test)

What documents do I need to take to DPS to get the permit?

TDLR (DE 964) Form (to be issued by Driving School)
30 Hour Behind the Wheel Parent Log
TDLR Form (Verification Of Enrollment & Attendance) signed by high school official.
Cash, Check or Credit Card/Debit Card.
- $11 for those under the age of 18
- $25 for ages 18 and up

If you are NOT a citizen, you must show proof of nationalization with a Permanent Resident Card (Green Card)

DO NOT LOSE YOUR DE964—THERE IS A $10 FEE FOR REPLACEMENTS

What do I do after I obtain the permit?

After receiving the permit from DPS, you will need to bring it by the office to show the secretary. You can begin scheduling your driving at this point. In order to do so, you will need to create a schedule 2 drive account (this is an additional $10 fee paid directly to the website/ ***this is not included in your registration fees)

How does the driving portion work?

Your driving lessons are scheduled by you, based on your availability. You have a choice of scheduling them while the student is still doing the classroom portion, or after they have completed the classes. However, be sure to keep in mind you have six months from the day you start class to complete this program in its entirety.

The new driving schedule is posted every Wednesday (at 12pm during the summer and between 4-5pm during the school year.) However, you can schedule any day of the week if there are openings. To meet the needs of all our students, they can only drive once every 12 days. For every 2-hours students drive with us they need to practice 3-5 hours at home.

Because of the limited hours during the school year, driving slots in the past have been filling up very quickly. In order to avoid running out of time, please do not wait until the last minute to begin scheduling your driving.

What if I need to cancel a driving lesson?

To cancel a drive a 6 hour notice must be given via the S2D website. If your cancellation notice is late or if none is given you will be charged a $20 no show fee.

How do I receive important reminders?

The S2D website can notify you of important information. For example, it can text or email you to remind you of a driving lesson you have scheduled, to notify you if there is a cancellation, to notify you if you have incurred a fee, and to remind you of your approaching deadline. To activate this feature, you will need to edit your S2D profile.

How long do I have to complete the Driver’s Education program?

When you sign up for a program, you enter into a six month contract. Therefore, if your class begins June 9, 2017 you have until December 9, 2017 to complete the entire program. If you fail to do so, an extension (variance) may be requested. Variances are an addition $100 charge. TDLR requires that this MUST be done before the contract expires.

How do refunds work?

Some refund information is available in your original contract. In order to calculate your refund, TDLR has provided a refund calculation worksheet for us to determine the amount you will receive. Refunds may take up to a week to process. Reminder: There is a $50 administrative processing fee deducted from the amount of your refund.

What if I lose my certificate?

If you have misplaced your DE964 (certificate) there is a $10 fee for a duplicate.

How do I get my license?

You must meet the following requirements before you can obtain a license:

Complete the 32 hours of classroom instruction
Complete the 14 hours of behind the wheel instruction
Complete the additional 30 hours of behind the wheel with a parent/guardian
Be at least 16 years old
Have held your permit in excess of 6 months

Pass the road test with the DPS

When should I insure my new teen driver?

While the student is driving in our car, they are fully covered by our insurance policy. Typically, insurance companies do not require you to add your teen to your insurance policy until they have obtained their full license. However, it is best to check with your own insurance company.

Remember: Upon completing the Driver’s Education course with us, you will receive an insurance copy of your certificate which most insurance companies accept for a 10% discount! This is not available if you choose parent taught driver education.

Why should I choose your course instead of parent taught?

At Frost Driving School our only objective is to train your student to be the most knowledgeable and safe driver they can be. At Frost Driving School we eat, sleep, and breathe driver safety every day so that you never have to worry that you missed something important while juggling your families’ busy schedules. Remember, we all drive the same roads and we want to make the best drivers possible.
