Driving Lessons


Description


Each driving lesson spans 85-90 minutes in length. All lessons are administered by state certified Class E commercial motor vehicle driving instructors who will ensure all Class E Driving students receive a comprehensive and effective learning experience.

Driving lessons are performed with the driving instructor's vehicle, which is equipped with a secondary braking system to enhance safety and facilitate the learning process. Under certain circumstances, we may make exceptions.

Throughout the lessons, the instructor covers a wide range of essential concepts, including but not limited to:

  • Motor Vehicle Anatomy: Understanding the key components of the vehicle.
  • Smooth Acceleration/Deceleration: Learning to operate the vehicle smoothly and efficiently.
  • Negotiating Right/Left Turns: Mastering the art of making turns safely and confidently.
  • Lane Maintenance: Gaining skills for maintaining lane position.
  • Lane Changing: Learning the correct procedures for changing lanes safely.
  • "Following The Rules": Understanding and adhering to traffic regulations.
  • Looking Ahead (Aiming High) and Making Predictions: Developing the ability to anticipate and react to traffic situations.
  • Parking Lot Navigation: Practicing parking skills in various settings.
  • Defensive Driving Strategies: Acquiring the skills to anticipate and respond to potential hazards.
  • Interstate and Highway Merging and Navigation: Learning the techniques for merging onto highways and navigating them with confidence.

Progression from one concept to the next is tailored to each student's experience and performance ensuring students can develop their skills at their own pace. We believe our approach makes the learning process both effective and enjoyable.

All students will receive a certificate upon completion that could potentially unlock savings with their insurance provider.
