The plan includes the following: one-on-one 30 minute consult (either in person at select offices or on Zoom with our professional Individualized Driving Plan Coordinator to discuss specific needs, concerns, and fears in order to create a plan that will work for you), a free two-part New Driver Workshop (to gain a better understanding of traffic laws, driving techniques, and the DOL State Testing requirements), DOL Knowledge Test (up to 3 attempts), 12 one-hour lessons with concierge scheduling (the Coordinator will assist in matching you with an instructor that you will feel comfortable with and schedule your lessons), extended time to complete this package, and a 30-minute warm-up with DOL Skills Test (allows time to practice maneuvers and ask questions prior to the test). We encourage 2-4 hours of practice between lessons and inviting a family member or friend to ride along during your lessons, if possible, so they can know how to help you during your home practice.
