Driving Lessons | Danbury, CT

Connecticut requires new teen drivers (16-17 years old) to complete 40 hours of driving practice with a trainer (anyone with a US driver’s license for at least 4 years and no suspensions). 

Driving lessons with The Next Street count towards these required driving practice hours. Gain behind-the-wheel experience merging on I-84 and driving through downtown Danbury with our professional instructors.

Private Driving Lessons

The Next Street driving lessons are tailored to each individual driver, cultivating an atmosphere of patience, empathy, and zero judgment. 

Driving lessons are 2-hour appointments in which students are in the driver’s seat, with a highly trained instructor beside them. All lessons are done in our dual-controlled cars, and equipped with GPS monitoring to keep you safe.

Mock License Test Driving Lesson

This unique driving session mimics Connecticut’s driver’s license road test. In this 2-hour lesson, our focus will be on preparing you to pass your license test. Our certified instructors perform multiple mock tests on a used testing route to evaluate your performance in much the same way the Connecticut DMV would.

Feedback and notes will be given at the end of the mock test, followed by working on areas that need improvement or require extra practice.

Testimonials

My driving and instructor was Bill Mead, and he was amazing to say the least. He was so kind and made sure to push me to do better while still being gentle and making sure I felt safe and comfortable. He also explained things amazingly. For example, he taught me a tactic with the three white lines and how the curb would line up and a phrase to remember when backing up into parking spaces. He even drew things on a piece of paper so I understood them. I thoroughly recommend!😊

I had my last driving lesson with instructor Bill Mead. He is just brilliant at what he does. Polite, patient, encouraging and very kind. He made me feel completely safe and at the same time I felt like I was learning from the master of the masters. If you’re a new student, I’d totally recommend taking all your lessons with him. Thank you Bill! I just passed my test today, now let’s play some music! 🎵✨🌟

Donald in Danbury coached my daughter through her fourth lesson and he was just such a wonderful cheerleader and instructor. She’s so ready to pass her test, Donald tells me she’ll have no issues and is a very competent driver. His manner is so friendly and easygoing, daughter said she’s very confident on the road, even at night, even in the country. Thank you, Donald, for getting her fully prepared (and for the turkey cooking advice!). Would highly recommend!
