Private Driving Lessons

Driving lessons are done in 2-hour blocks and begin with the basics so that the instructor can develop a good understanding of each student’s experience, skill, knowledge and confidence. As lessons progress, the instructor will make sure that each core skill is learned before building upon it. Lessons will cover accelerating, braking, turning and parking maneuvers before graduating to lane choice, speed management, urban and rural driving, driving on hills, highway driving and mock road tests (if purchased).

    This review is in regard to the corporate and customer service aspect. I got a screw in the sidewall of my tire and they wanted to penalize me with a fee of $190. When I complained to the owner they booted my son from the school and cancelled his road test. They willingly chose to try to hurt my child as punishment for my speaking up about their unjust business practices. Would never recommend this school. Awful!

    I passed my driving test today, and I just wanted to thank the lady who was there this morning. She was so kind and welcoming, and she helped everyone feel less nervous about the road test. And thank you, Cole (sorry if I misspelled your name). You really helped me with so many things, and I truly appreciate it. I wish you a wonderful day and a happy birthday! I’m sorry I forgot to get you a birthday gift. Thank you both for everything. I couldn’t have done it without your support!
