Teen Driver’s Education
With the new Joshua’s Law in effect which requires that 16-year olds take an approved driver’s education course to obtain a driver’s license, beginning January 1, 2007, all 16 year-olds applying for a Class D driver’s license must complete a 30/6 hour driver education course.
With over ten thousand 15 and 16-year olds in our four county service area, we expect this course to be widely received by the students and their parents. This 30-hour course will also make a significant contribution to the community by keeping our young drivers and our roadways safer.
This 30/6-hour National Safety Council course teaches safe and effective driving skills to new teen drivers using Department of Driver Services (DDS)-approved standardized curriculum.
The program consists of 30 hours of classroom instruction plus 6 hours of supervised on-the-road driving instruction.
The WCTC Driver’s Education course includes the National Safety Council’s 6-hour Defensive Driving course, approved for the state law mandated 10% reduction in auto insurance premiums.
(36 hours) - 4 days plus 1 driving day Cost: $ 290
