In The Driver's Seat:  

   Each student is required to complete a minimum of 14 hours of "on-the-road" instruction of which seven hours are devoted to actual driving and the other seven hours are devoted to observing other classmates driving which should include discussion and note taking. All driving lessons are supervised by one of our State-Certified, licensed instructors. Each of our training vehicles are equipped with an additional brake installed on the passenger side which will allow the instructor to stop the vehicle in order to avoid any situation that may arise.

   Students train in new and late-model (automatic, 4 & 6 cylinder, four door) vehicles that are professionally maintained. The styles and features make them very easy to learn basic driving skills in, while keeping comfort and safety in mind. In order to better serve you, we ensure that our staff of behind-the-wheel instructors consist of both male and females - giving you the option to choose!

    Should the need to cancel your driving appointment arise, please adhere to
our Cancellation Policy.


   
Top Driving Mistakes That Cause Crashes

  1. Multi-tasking While Driving
    • Driving Tip: When You Turn the Car On, Turn the Gadgets Off. No matter how busy your day is, when you’re on the road, focus only on driving. Catch up on other activities later and avoid unnecessary accidents.
  2. Following Too Closely
    • Driving Tip: One Thousand One, One Thousand Two. Leave a two-second cushion between you and the vehicle ahead – it could save your bumper and your life. Make sure to double or triple that time when the weather is bad or the pavement is slick..
  3. Failure to Yield on a Left-Hand Turn
    • Driving Tip: Check the Flow Before You Go. Look at the street you are turning into to make sure that no vehicles or pedestrians are in your path..
  4. Incorrect Merging
    • Driving Tip: Yellow is for Yield. Accidents often occur when you are stuck behind a driver who interprets yield as stop. Don’t be the guilty party. Use the ramp as a means for merging into traffic, not causing it..
  5. Backing Up
    • Driving Tip: Look Over Your Shoulder. Objects in the mirror are closer than they appear. Your mirrors have a margin of error; don’t rely on them alone. Look over your shoulder before backing up..
