Frequently Asked Questions
- Will you do all 6 hours of in-car training in one session?
-
Absolutely not! Driving techniques are habits and take time to change. We prefer a minimum of 4 days between lessons for our students to practice the information and techniques they learn on each lesson. Cramming for the road test does not promote safe and knowledgeable techniques.
- Why do you offer additional lessons beyond the 6 hours required by the state?
-
We recognize that not all parents have the time in their schedules for the practice required. We also understand that not every student is the same. Some come to classes with fears that prevent them from learning as quickly as others. We also know that the knowledge our instructors have can easily fill more than the minimum 6 hour requirement established by the state.
- Do you train in bad weather or after dark?
-
Yes! A license grants permission to drive in all weather conditions so we train in all weather conditions unless the authorities recommend staying off the roads.
- Refund Policy
-
$50 Registration fee is non-refundable. All other refunds are at manager's discretion for issues within our control. Credit card refunds will be applied to the card which was charged. No cash refunds for credit card purchases.
- Do we train on a stick shift?
-
No, we don't have a standard transmission vehicle. It is better for all students to learn on an automatic transmission.
- Can we train in the student's vehicle?
-
No, State regulations require that we teach only in our dual controlled vehicles.
- Do we have a female instructor?
-
Yes.
- Can we teach the hearing impaired?

- Do we do motorcycle training?
-
No. Our school focuses on driving typical passenger vehicles.
- Do we offer a military/senior citizen discount?
-
No, we strive to keep our prices as low as possible to make training accessible to all individuals. Because of our over 50 years of experience and the advanced level of training our instructors receive, we will be able to give everyone the training they need to learn successfully.
- Do we offer training in languages other than English?
-
No, unfortunately there are no foreign language speaking instructors. We will be happy to offer some help if we can, but the student needs to be able to speak and comprehend a good bit of English.
