Why does the license matter? A licensed school has met South Carolina'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 South Carolina, driving schools are licensed through the SC Department of Motor Vehicles.
- Search South Carolina’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.
- Teens 15 to 16: 8 classroom hours plus 6 hours of driving, on SCDMV Form PDLA, and 40 hours of supervised practice (10 at night). (source)
- Drivers 25 and older: a DMV-approved course of at least 4 classroom hours, given by a licensed driver training school, can earn an insurance credit. (source)
Rules change, so confirm the details with the SC Department of Motor Vehicles before you enroll.
