Can I drive with my father sitting next to me while taking lessons at a driving school but without a license?

I am an 18-year-old living in Qatar who is taking driving lessons at a driving school. I would like to know if it is legal for me to drive on the main road with my father sitting next to me. I believe that I can drive quite well but my only worry is if I get into a car accident. So does anyone have any idea whether its legal or not?

of course you are NOT allowed ...

this is out of question ... you can only drive the driving school cars when you are accompanied by the trainer .. thats all

otherwise ask your dad to prepare a QR 6000 violation.
