Our Business
Letter to Parents: Thank you for contacting us at Lewis County Driving School. We seek to provide quality traffic safety education and flexible scheduling to meet your student's needs. According to the DOL we have the highest pass rate for the written and in-car tests at the DOL for any public or commercial school in Lewis County!
Successful completion of this course is a required prerequisite to obtain a Washington State driver's license prior to age 18. A waiver for an instruction permit is available for your student at age 15 when he/she is fully paid and enrolled in this approved Traffic Safety Education course.
Lewis County Driving School encourages you, the parent, to drive with your student a minimum of 26 hours at home during the course to improve their driving skills as they are taught in class. Improved skills will help your student become a safer driver on the road. (The student is required to have 50 hours minimum driving practice with the parent prior to licensing.)
As always, the parent or guardian is the final judge of when a young person is ready for their driver's license test. 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. After the young person has their license, it is still the parent's responsibility to ensure that safe driving practices are adhered to. If they are not, the parent should remove the young person's driving privileges until they have adjusted their attitude toward their driving responsibilities.
Please feel free to call. We are always happy to answer your questions. (360)
