We have an excellent Driver Education program near Bakersfield. All of our classes exceed State requirements and involve the student participating.

Many Bakersfield area high schools, especially public high schools, the only requirement for passing is attendance. Not so with us! We want to make sure that the teen student understands the law, understands their responsibilities in driving, understands some basic mechanics, and understands defensive driving techniques.

The knowledge is given in an easy, palatable manner, and for each topic, tests are given which the student must pass. We are more concerned for the students to "learn" rather than just put in 30 hours of attendance. We make sure our students get the best training that money can buy... and our standards are high! 


 

 

TEEN LAW EFFECTIVE JANUARY 1, 2004 allows teenagers to take Bakersfield Driver’s Education (30 hours of classroom) at age 15, but does not allow them to obtain a driving permit or drive with their parents. To begin the driving phase(Bakersfield Drivers Training), they must be enrolled with a professional driving school, be at least 15 ½ years old, and have completed the 30 hour Bakersfield Driver’s Education course.
For the average teenager it will be easier under the new law to simply enroll in a Bakersfield Driver’s Education class at age 15 ½, complete the 30 hours of training, enroll in behind the wheel instruction(Bakersfield Drivers Training) (6 hour program), and then they will be able to practice with their parent/guardian between the professional lessons. Traditionally practicing with a parent or guardian in between the professional driving lessons helps the student develop those skills such as space management, vision habits, and other driving techniques. The parent or guardian can then go on and give the student a minimum of 40 hours of day time driving practice(Bakersfield Drivers Training), along with a minimum of 10 hours of night time practice.
