A driving school is a training center for new drivers, or for drivers who need further training.

Instruction can prepare beginners or extend an existing driver's abilities. Advanced and truck-driving training are expressly included.
Simulators and dedicated driving tracks are possible facilities. Their presence is not required in every center providing driver training.
