Question

I go for driving lessons. In the car of the driving school, there is a picture of something from another religion and a sign on the key ring. Is it permissible for me to go to the driving school and use their keys?

Answer

This car does not belong to you. Hence, you have no authority over the vehicle. You may use it. If the owner is kind enough to remove the sign it will be better.
