Parents

Parent Responsibilities

Ready to teach your teenager to drive? Probably not, but Express Driving School is here to help.

Express Driving School’s instructors are patient and experienced in providing quality driver training to beginning drivers.  Our 6 hours behind-the-wheel course is a comprehensive driving training that will teach your teenager about vehicle operation, rules of the road and road signs, and safe driving practices.

After the first lesson, the instructor will validate your teenager’s permit, which will allow him/her to drive with a licensed adult 25 years or older.   Now your teenager is ready to drive with you!  Don’t forget, DMV requires every teenager to have 50 hours of supervised driving practice with parents.  10 hours must be night driving.

To further assist you, we’ve put together resources to support and guide you through the process and requirements of getting your teenager a provisional California Driver License.

•  California DMV Parent Teen Training Guide – All the information from the DMV that you and your teenager needs for driving instruction and practice.

• National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) – A comprehensive approach to teen driver safety.  Check out their new campaign “5 to Drive” in the video linked here.

• National Safety Council – What parents can do to keep their teenagers safe on the road.
