We are able to drop you off at a different location from original pick up address most of the time. However, we may advise against it in certain situations because travel time counts towards your instruction time.
What should I expect on my first driving lesson?
Our instructor will call you at least 5 minutes before arriving; we understand that the first time learning can make anybody anxious, so please try to relax and have your permit ready. Also, remember to bring your glasses/contacts if you need them to drive. The first few minutes will be used to process payment and introduce you the the car and the basics before driving. Our driving instructor will then guide you through the process in a calm manner. We highly recomend that you wear comfortable clothes and closed toe shoes.
