Our goal is to equip our students with the best defensive driving
techniques possible. We hire instructors who have had personal
experience in observing the consequences of placing a drivers license in
the hands of an over-confident, under-experienced teenager. While we
are unable to control what the student does when he completes our
course, we do control the time in our program and parents can rest
assured we do not take lightly the task of using that time wisely!
Auto Safe Driving School, Inc. is a member of the American Driver and Traffic Safety Education Association.
