Mr. Watts is a Competency Based Instructor. This means , if the student is a good enough driver, he/she may only have to drive the minimum required 2 hours of driving and then pass the Drive Test. The purpose of the Drive Test is to evaluate that the driver has the minimum level of skills to drive in most road conditions. Passing or completion of the program by no means suggests the student is a highly qualified driver. The more experience your youthful student receives, both before and after this course, will improve their survival chances on the road. Drivers who do not qualify to be tested out will drive a maximum of 5 hours and then take the Drive Test. Their enrollment in the class does not guarantee they will pass. Upon successful completion of the course, the student is entitled to a “Department of Motor Vehicles School Permit/POP Written and Driving Test Waiver” form.
As of January 1, 2008:
1) Applicants must be at least 14 years and two months old, but younger than16 years and three months old to be issued a School Permit (SCP) and has held a School Learner’s Permit (LPE) for at least two months. The SCP expires when the individual is 16 years and three months of age.
2) No Provisional Operator’s Permit (POP) can be issued until such person:
A. Has possessed a Learner’s Permit (LPD) for at least 6 months
( a School Learner’s Permit (LPE) and a School Permit (SCP) will also
be accepted to meet this requirement) and
B. Has not accumulated three or more points on their driving record
during the six-month period preceding the POP application date.
This green form will be stored at the school until such time as the student needs it.
A permit is not necessary to participate in Driver Education.
The student must be 14 by October 15, 2010 to take the course.
