A state license is the simplest proof that a school meets Michigan's standards for instructors, vehicles and lessons. Without it, the hours you pay for may not count, and your insurer may turn down the certificate.
In Michigan, driving schools are licensed through the Michigan Department of State.
- Search Michigan’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.
- Segment 1 (teens): at least 24 classroom hours, 6 hours behind the wheel and 4 hours of observation. (source)
- Segment 2: at least 6 more classroom hours after the Level 1 license. Both segments use Department-supplied certificates. (source)
Rules change, so confirm the details with the Michigan Department of State before you enroll.
