At drive-rite, we work hard to develop and maintain a program that fits every driver's individual needs. Our driver education/training programs are customized to the needs of our students
and communicate results to both parents and the student. Our experience shows that students require a gentle touch, they learn at different rates, and after all for most of them, it is the
first time they have driven with anyone outside of a parent, legal guardian or custodian.
Due to the ongoinging rise in fuel prices and operating costs , our fee (before website and PROMPT PAYMENT discounts) is $ 396.00, but you can still SAVE $ 9.00 ($ 387.00) by pre-registering on the 'Contact Us' page of this web site and paying the fees, in full, on the first night of the classroom by cash or check. Please see 'THE CALENDAR'. Call for details or you can sent us an e-mail with comments at drive-riteschool@fuse.net . .
Classroom Instruction
There are two distinct parts to the drive-rite program - classroom and behind-the-wheel.
You can begin your driver education/training on any day that you choose since each session
is independent of each other.
Class days for our program are: Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday from 5:30 PM to 8:45 PM with a 15 minute BREAK (students are available at 8:45 PM - each evening). This permits time to complete homework assignments and get to bed at a reasonable hour.
Classes take two weeks [8 class sessions] to complete and students can start on any of the 4 nights listed. If a class needs to be missed, it can be made up two weeks from the originally missed class, at no extra charge - for up to four cycles (8 weeks). A combination of textbooks, Responsible Driving written by The American Automobile Association, a trusted name in driving, and Drive Right are the 'latest' versions available (2006 and 2007), giving young drivers "the best of the best" in preparation and education.
In Car Instruction
We will work your In Car Sessions around YOUR schedule. You will drive 'one on one' with your instructor. We will pick you up and drop you off wherever you need to be - within reason: At home, school, work, etc with your parents permission-at no extra fee. This portion of our program is a partnership between the parent, the student and our school, therefore, we at drive-rite, REQUEST 'some' behind-the-wheel experience with a parent (50 hours is REQUIRED by the State of Ohio before they can take the Basic Operating Skills Test). We'll be able to tell you, before you exit the classroom sessions, the week your behind-the-wheel sessions will be scheduled and the end date of our training.
Need 'extra' time behind-the-wheel - NO PROBLEM -- $ 65.00 per hour and a half for drive-rite QUALITY. For the Behind-the-Wheel sessions, students MUST have the PHOTO I.D CARD and the WHITE COPY of their TEMPS to drive - let's make sure they have them - believe us - we check. You can always 'rent' the cones and sticks to practice the manuverability for $ 10.00 for 24 hours - let's "keep 'em sharp" for the TEST. We also offer a Winter Driving Session covering all aspects of winter drivng - with practice under the supervision of a Certified (by the State of Ohio) Senior drive-rite Instructor. " You cna always 'rent' the cones and stc
Adult Courses
Our adult driving course is priced by the hour and a half consists of 90 minutes behind-the-wheel, which means you don't pay for sessions you don't want or need. You can choose to take your driving test in our car to help save money. The fee is $ 70.00 per session (60 minutes) or you can contract for six (6) hours for $ 390.00 (a substantial savings) and all you need is a State of Ohio Temporary Permit that is validated. If you are a new driver and require classroom learning, that is also available. These 'adult' sessions are taught by our most experienced instructors.
Day of Test/Refresher Session
If you opt to take the test in our vehicle, we will pick you up forty-five minutes before the test to review maneuverability, do a series of left and right turns and practice 3 and 5-light intersections (to insure road worthiness and relieve the butterflies) and arrive at the TESTING Station 15 minutes before the scheduled test time. Fees are due before the TEST DATE along with a Voice Confirmation from the instructor and drive-rite. The fee is $ 70.00 and if the student scores 100 on both parts in a drive-rite vehicle, they will receive a $ 25.00 GAS CARD.
Employee Driver Safety Programs
Many employers are taking an active roll in providing safety education for their employees, where employees are required to drive during the course of thier employment. Every year billions of dollars are lost due to absenteeism from traffic injuries, reduced productivity from chronic injuries that occur in low speed crashes such as whiplashes, lawsuits, property damage and lost good will toward the business. In fact, commercial vehicles are involved in an average of $ 15 billion of traffic accidents annually. Whether your company consists of truck drivers, home visiting nurses or pizza delivery, the safety of your employees is paramount. Your drivers represent you, they are often the first impression to the outside world. What first impressions are your employees making?
We offer courses at reasonable rates, varied curriculums and we can give classes at your location or ours.
