Get a feel for the vehicle

We will start in the safest, easiest location possible, We will have your teen practice applying gas and brakes, driving straight, turning, and backing up.
As we see your teen beginning to master these skills, we make the situation a little more complex. For example, instead of just stopping and starting, we your teen pull into and out of a parking spot.
It can take some time to figure out how much pressure to apply to the brakes to stop or how far to move the steering wheel to turn.
We will remind your teen driver to pay attention to their surroundings:
Look ahead and to the sides.
Check mirrors.
Scan continuously for hazards.
We teach your teen to keep a clear “safety space”
We will teach to check around the car so there’s room to react to any hazards. The farther he or she hangs back from the vehicle in front, the better your teen will be able to see what’s ahead. Seeing better and farther provides extra time to react to changing traffic conditions.

Start in low-speed, low-traffic areas

Once your teen is comfortable with the basic operation of the car, take your training to quiet streets where your teen can practice staying on one side of the road, anticipate cars exiting driveways, and learn to pull up to a stop sign.
