Licensing is not a formality. It is how Maine checks instructors, training cars and course content. If a school is not licensed, its lessons may not count toward a license or an insurance discount.

Verify before you pay

In Maine, driving schools are licensed through the Maine Bureau of Motor Vehicles.

  1. Search Maine’s official driving school list or lookup for the school’s name.
  2. Match the name, address and any license number with what the school gives you.
  3. Ask the school for its license number. A licensed school will tell you right away.
The Maine requirements in brief
  • Teens under 18: 30 classroom hours plus 10 hours behind the wheel, with a course completion certificate provided by the Secretary of State. (source)

Rules change, so confirm the details with the Maine Bureau of Motor Vehicles before you enroll.

  • Are all of your instructors licensed or certified?
  • What exactly is included: classroom hours, behind-the-wheel hours, road test help?
