I'm surprised that there are actually enrollment documentation requirements in some states. What in the world would that have to do with learning to drive?
Yes.. quite complicated rules that a lot of parents don't understand. Classroom/Online course on the rules for ~30 hours and 6 hours of on the road driving with a instructor. I won't go into all the details here. The crazy thing is the rules go away if you plan to take your drivers test after you turn 18.
The drivers ed course isn't about learning to drive. It's about jumping through hoops and keeping more young teens off the roads. The drivers ed class includes rules of the road, and chapter after chapter of information about the evils of drinking/drugs & driving.
The "30 hour" online class my son took was a lot of repetition. California care more about the classes "length" than learning info. My daughter took the class in a classroom and she never took a test or a quiz. And my son's online course had quizes and a test at the end but many of the questions were asking if you had read the text vs. knew the rules of the road.
