Why does the license matter? A licensed school has met New Jersey's rules for instructors, cars and course content. Training from an unlicensed business may not count toward a license, and an insurer may not accept its certificate for a discount.
In New Jersey, driving schools are licensed through the NJ Motor Vehicle Commission (MVC).
- Search New Jersey’s official driving school list or lookup for the school’s name.
- Match the name, address and any license number with what the school gives you.
- Ask the school for its license number. A licensed school will tell you right away.
- Student permit (early) path: 6 hours of behind-the-wheel instruction in a dual-controlled car with a licensed driving school, no more than 3 hours in one day. The school owner then endorses the permit. (source, source 2)
Rules change, so confirm the details with the NJ Motor Vehicle Commission (MVC) before you enroll.
