Teen behind-the-wheel training for Arlington students
Whether your teen attends one of the Arlington high schools, including Wakefield, Yorktown and Washington-Liberty, or another school nearby, we pick them up from home or school. After your teen finishes classroom driver's ed, our one-on-one behind-the-wheel course covers the 14 in-car periods Virginia requires and includes the final road skills test, so your teen does not take the road test at the DMV. We can schedule lessons around the school day, weekends and holidays.
Adult driving lessons in Arlington
If you are 18 or older, our adult waiver license course lets you get your Virginia license with no DMV road test. Never driven before? The 10-hour beginner course starts from zero with a patient, DMV-certified instructor. Our instructors speak English and Spanish.
Practice on real Arlington roads
Arlington driving has its own challenges: busy corridors like Columbia Pike, Glebe Road and Wilson Boulevard, lots of pedestrians and cyclists, bike lanes and tight street parking. When you are ready, we practice merging onto I-66, Route 50 and I-395, so you are confident on the roads you will actually use.
