Our Policies

Students are expected to come prepared to participate. That means they should:

  • be well rested
  • not be impaired by drugs or alcohol
  • have their glasses or contact lenses
  • have their permit
  • be open and receptive to driving instruction

Any student who (in the opinion of the instructor) appears to be impaired or otherwise unprepared will not be allowed to participate in the behind-the-wheel session and will be charged a rescheduling fee.

There is no fee for canceling drives or VR sessions more than 24 hours in advance. Canceling within 24 hours takes that driving opportunity away from other students and impacts the instructor's schedule. We have a late cancellation fee based on each activity and the impact on the schedule.
