Driver Education:
Driver Education
Teaches students the information needed to pass the Registry of Motor Vehicle test for a Learner's Permit. The Independent Living Program staff can assist students with Learner's Permits and finding On-the-Road instruction.
Class meets once a week for three hours. We offer Driver's Education when ten or more students are enrolled.
**The class will focus on safety, rules of the road and defensive driving,
how to handle emergencies and accidents, the process needed to own a car
(registration, etc), and covering questions and answers from the RMV road
test. FYI: no on the road instruction will be provided, this is an in-class
course. At the end of the class students will be responsible for scheduling
and taking their own permit test.
