1. After the third day of class, students will take the written permit test, so they can go to the DPS to get their driving permit. We will assist with paperwork and appointment. We strongly recommend teens DO NOT drive with their parents or adults until after they have driven with the driving school. Teens āhave 90 days to complete classroom hours from start date or will have to pay a reinstatement fee.
ā
2. 14 hours In- Car: Minimum state requirement is 7 hours driving and 7 hours observation. When available we drive before and after classroom hours, on weekends and most holidays. Option is given to hold last lesson as a review lesson before probation period ends. There is no cost for observation hours. Students with a grade average of 95 or above get once a month free lessons until LOFS date, upon school availability.
ā
3. If you owe money or have missed classes, you may have to wait to get your driving permit or drive hours. We have six months to complete driving. We strive to complete driving within 60 days of the last classroom date. Driving must be completed within 6 months, or you may have to pay a reinstatement fee. If you turn 18 years of age, driving must be done prior and road test must be done on their birthday or they will have to go renew permit to complete the program.
ā
1.Teens are to drive with their parents/guardian/authorized adults and fill out a 30-hour log. Log no more than one hour per day, driving both day and nighttime. Daytime is before 6 p.m. and nighttime is after 6 p.m. (If not yet 18 years of age.)
ā
2. Person driving the student must have a valid driver's license, must be over 21 of age, and have at least 1 year experince driving.
ā
3. Additionally, prior to taking the Road Test at the end of their probation period they must see the two hour Teen Impact video (must be done on desktop (PC) or laptop computer) and print out the certificate within 90 days of taking the Road Test. (If you need help ask us.)
