Behind the Wheel Lessons
(for students not enrolled in the teen certificate course) are available at $45 per hour. The
number of hours of instruction varies directly with the student’s ability to
master skills and maneuvers necessary to pass the state DOL on-road test.
The student will master these skills more quickly with practice at home. |

Waivers for instruction permits are available for your student as early as age 15 at the

the road. |
| As always, the parent or guardian is the final judge of when
a young person is ready for their driver’s license. We provide the behind
the wheel and classroom instruction. The third and most important element, judgment, is a factor that only a parent can fully evaluate. |
