Learning to drive in Lauderdale Lakes means practicing on the actual streets you'll use every day. Our driving instructors teach on NW 39th Street, Oakland Park Boulevard, Commercial Boulevard, and State Road 7. Students practice in real traffic conditions across zip codes 33319, 33313, and 33311.
You get behind-the-wheel training on the same roads where you'll take your DMV skills test. Our instructors know every turn, traffic light, and tricky intersection in Lauderdale Lakes. We pick you up from your home, school, or workplace anywhere in the city.
Our Driving Lessons in Lauderdale Lakes
Each lesson runs for two hours in a dual-control vehicle. The instructor sits next to you with a brake pedal on the passenger side. This means you can practice without fear of accidents.
We pick students up from anywhere in Lauderdale Lakes at no extra charge. Many students start in the Broward College North Campus parking lot on a quiet Sunday morning. You'll learn basic controls first - steering, braking, accelerating, and turning.
After mastering neighborhood streets, we move to busier roads. You'll drive on I-95 and Florida Turnpike during highway lessons. Parallel parking happens on quiet residential streets before trying it downtown. Three-point turns get practiced on wide roads with low traffic.
| Package | Total Hours | What You Learn | Best For |
|---|---|---|---|
| 6 Hours | 3 lessons x 2 hours | Basic controls, neighborhood driving, right turns, left turns | Students with some practice already |
| 10 Hours | 5 lessons x 2 hours | Everything above plus highway merging, lane changes, parking lots | New drivers starting from zero |
| 12 Hours | 6 lessons x 2 hours | Complete training including parallel parking and I-95 driving | Most popular for test preparation |
| 20 Hours | 10 lessons x 2 hours | Full curriculum plus defensive driving and night practice | Nervous students or complex situations |
Every package includes pickup service within Lauderdale Lakes city limits. Highway practice starts after you master basic turns and stops. Parallel parking gets added when you can handle regular parking confidently.
Teen Driving Instruction
Teenagers must hold a learner's permit before the first lesson. We pick up from Boyd Anderson High School and Nova High School after classes end. Parents can ride in the back seat during any lesson if they want.
Florida requires teens under 18 to complete specific permit requirements first. You need to pass the written knowledge test at DMV and hold your permit for 12 months. Most teens take 10-12 hours of lessons before feeling ready for the road test.

Insurance Discount
Drivers under 25 who complete 6+ hours
Insurance companies give discounts to young drivers under 25 who complete six hours of professional instruction. Bring proof of your lessons to your insurance agent. Students save money on their car insurance for completing driving school.
Adult Driving Lessons
Many adults in Lauderdale Lakes never learned to drive growing up. Some moved from countries with different traffic rules. Others feel too nervous to practice with family members.
Our instructors work with students who shake when they sit in the driver's seat. We start in empty parking lots until you feel comfortable. There's no rush and no judgment about your starting skill level.
Evening Lessons
Evening lessons run until 6 PM on weekdays for people who work. Saturday and Sunday slots fill up fast, so book early. We schedule around your work shifts and family responsibilities.
Patient Approach
We start in empty parking lots until you feel comfortable. There's no rush and no judgment about your starting skill level.
Road Test Preparation
The DMV examiner in Lauderdale Lakes often uses a route that includes Oakland Park Boulevard and NW 31st Avenue. You'll need to parallel park, do a three-point turn, and drive in regular traffic. Students practice these exact maneuvers during lessons.
Most students feel ready for the skills test after 10-12 hours of instruction. The DMV examiner watches how you check mirrors, signal turns, and follow speed limits. Small mistakes are okay, but running a red light or hitting a curb means automatic failure.

Frequently Asked Questions
How many lessons do I need before taking the DMV test?
Most students feel ready after 10-12 hours of instruction. Complete beginners might need 15-20 hours. Students who already practiced with family often need just 6 hours to polish their skills.
Do you pick up from my house in Lauderdale Lakes?
Yes, we pick up anywhere in zip codes 33319, 33313, and 33311 at no extra charge. The instructor arrives at your door at the scheduled time. You just need to be ready to start driving.
What happens if I don't pass the road test?
You can take the DMV skills test again after waiting the required period. Many students book a few extra lessons to practice what the examiner marked as problems. The second attempt often goes better because you know what to expect.
Can I use your car for the DMV test?
Students who complete a full lesson package can rent the dual-control vehicle for their skills test. The instructor drives you to the DMV and lets you use the car. This option costs less than renting from other sources.
Do you teach manual transmission?
Our standard lessons use automatic transmission vehicles. Manual transmission requires special instruction and different vehicles. Contact us if you specifically need stick shift training.
Are instructors bilingual?
Several instructors speak Spanish fluently for students more comfortable in that language. We also have instructors who speak Creole and Portuguese. Request a bilingual instructor when booking your first lesson.
What if I'm very nervous about driving?
Nervous students start in empty parking lots doing simple exercises. We move to quiet residential streets only after you feel comfortable. The instructor controls the brake pedal, so you can't crash even if you panic.
How soon can I schedule my first lesson?
Most weeks have openings within 5-7 days. Summer months and holiday periods book up faster. Call as soon as you get your learner's permit to reserve your preferred times.
