Our driving school serves all Miami-Dade County neighborhoods from Homestead to Aventura. Students learn both practical driving skills and Florida traffic laws needed for the DMV road test.
Behind the Wheel Training in Miami-Dade County
Each behind-the-wheel lesson takes place in a dual-control vehicle equipped with an instructor brake pedal. Students practice on I-95 between Golden Glades and Kendall, learning lane changes at 65 mph. The Palmetto Expressway teaches toll booth navigation and exit ramp judgment from Bird Road to Miami Gardens Drive.
US-1 through Coral Gables and Pinecrest builds skills for traffic light timing and pedestrian crossings. The Dolphin Expressway SR-836 helps students handle merge lanes near the airport and downtown exits. Busy intersections like Bird Road and Kendall Drive test decision-making during rush hour traffic.
Lessons run 90 minutes or 2 hours depending on what skills you need to practice. The longer sessions allow time for highway driving plus residential street parking in one lesson.

Road Test Preparation in Miami-Dade
Road test prep focuses on the exact maneuvers DMV examiners score during the driving exam. Parallel parking between two poles or cars at the test site gets practiced until the movement becomes automatic. Three-point turns on narrow streets like those in Coral Gables teach proper mirror checking and steering control.
Highway merging onto I-95 or the Palmetto tests acceleration judgment and gap selection. Students drive the actual streets near DMV offices where road tests happen, learning tricky intersections and school zones that appear on test routes. Speed limit changes on streets like Lejeune Road or Red Road require constant attention to posted signs.

- 4. Show original or certified birth certificate, valid passport, or permanent resident card

Teen Driver Education for Miami-Dade High Schools
We coordinate pickups with students attending Miami Palmetto Senior High, Columbus High School, Belen Jesuit Preparatory, Coral Reef Senior High, and Miami Senior High. Sunset High School students often schedule lessons for 4 PM right after dismissal. Southwest Miami Senior High and South Miami Senior High students use weekend morning slots when they're not studying.
Felix Varela Senior High, John Ferguson Senior High, and G. Holmes Braddock Senior High students get picked up from the main parking lot or student pickup zone. Private school students from Carrollton School of the Sacred Heart or Ransom Everglades coordinate with their athletic or activity schedules. Miami Country Day School and Gulliver Prep students book between sports practices.

Adult Driving Lessons in Miami-Dade
Never Learned to Drive
Adults who never learned to drive get patient instruction starting with parking lot basics before touching public roads. Many adults moved to Miami from countries where they used public transportation and now need a license for work. Some had licenses that expired after years without driving and need a full refresh.
Highway Confidence
Fear of highway driving affects many adults who only know residential streets. We build that confidence gradually, starting with I-95 during off-peak hours around 10 AM. Adults with busy work schedules book early morning lessons at 6 AM or evening slots after 7 PM.
Florida law doesn't set an upper age limit for learning to drive. Adults bring the same documents as teens except they don't need parental consent.
Defensive Driving and Insurance Discounts
Basic Driver Improvement Course
The Basic Driver Improvement course keeps points off your Florida driving record after getting a traffic citation. This four-hour course reduces the fine amount by 18% when you show the completion certificate to the clerk of court. Miami-Dade traffic court accepts BDI certificates for tickets received anywhere in the county.
π° Insurance Savings
Many insurance companies lower premiums by 5-10% after you finish a defensive driving course. That discount can last three years before needing another course.
Note: The BDI course is completely separate from teen driver's education and TLSAE - those courses don't remove traffic ticket points.
What to Bring to Your First Driving Lesson
Learner's Permit
Valid Florida learner's permit showing your photo and signature

Frequently Asked Questions
How many lessons do I need before the road test?
Most students need 6-8 hours of behind-the-wheel training if they've been practicing with parents. Students who haven't driven at all typically need 10-12 hours to learn all the maneuvers DMV tests.
Do you pick up from my house or apartment?
Yes, we pick up from any address in Miami-Dade County. Tell us your exact location when booking, including the building name for condos or gated communities.
What if I fail the road test at DMV?
You can retake the test after waiting the required period set by Florida law. We offer additional practice lessons focusing on whatever skills the examiner marked as failing.
Can I use your car for the DMV driving test?
Our vehicle is available for your road test appointment at the DMV. The car meets all Florida requirements including dual mirrors, working signals, and current registration.
Do you teach highway driving on I-95 and the Palmetto?
Every student who books 6 or more hours gets highway practice as part of the training. We start with quieter highways before moving to I-95 during peak traffic.
What areas of Miami-Dade do you serve for pickup?
We cover from Aventura in the north to Homestead in the south, and from Miami Beach east to West Kendall. Areas outside that range might have an additional travel fee.
Are lessons one-on-one or with other students?
All lessons are private one-on-one instruction - just you and the instructor in the car. This lets us focus completely on your specific skills that need work.
What happens if it rains during my scheduled lesson?
Light rain is actually good practice for learning wet road control and visibility issues. Heavy storms with flooding or lightning get rescheduled for safety. You won't be charged for weather cancellations.
