The Drive Fit

What is it?

• The Drive Fit is a one-day, four-hour behind the wheel program on a closed course.
• The course is offered on selected Saturdays and Sundays from 8 a.m. to 12-noon and 1:00 p.m. to 5 p.m.
• Drivers use their own vehicles so they can learn how the vehicle they drive most often responds under emergency braking and quick steering maneuvers.

Who it’s for?

• Any driver who wants to refine their collision avoidance skills.
• Perfect for new drivers to help them learn collision avoidance skills quickly, and get a check on their skill level and what their vehicle can and can’t do.
• “Nervous Drivers” who want more confidence behind the wheel.
• New car owners who want to get a feel for how their car will handle in emergency situations.

Private Drives

Client will work one-on-one with an instructor in our vehicle. Clients can customize private drives to meet their goals.

Defensive Driving: Level One

Also called a “Basic Driver Improvement” course, the LEVEL ONE class is designed to improve the driver’s knowledge and understanding of traffic laws as well as safe driving techniques and strategies to equip today’s experienced driver with up-to-date information on improving driver and occupant safety. The course also qualifies for some auto insurance discounts and employer’s fleet training programs.

Defensive Driving: Level Two

This course is a continuation of the material presented in LEVEL ONE with an emphasis on aggressive driving, racing, driving attitudes and alcohol related incidents and takes the contemporary driver further into details about the latest changes in “the rules of the road”, “safe driving tips” and in handling “emergency situations.”

Driving Assessment

Client will work one-on-one with an instructor who will gauge the client’s driving abilities. In this educational experience, the instructor will give feedback on breaking bad habits, ideas on how to adapt to any physical limitations and assess safety concerns.

PARTNERSHIP WITH PARENTS

Parent involvement is critical for the student’s success. 50 hours of supervised driving is required by WA State prior to receiving a driver’s license. If a parent refuses to practice with the student and the student is not able to complete the tasks of each BTW Lesson, parents will need to pay for additional drives in order for the student to move onto the next drive lesson, This can be avoided by the parent involvement. Attendance at one of our Parent Nights is highly recommended. 

STUDENT AND PARENT RESPONSIBILITY

ALL STUDENTS AND PARENTS ARE RESPONSIBLE FOR KNOWING AND TRACKING THEIR INDIVIDUAL DEADLINES, ABSENCES AND COURSE PROGRESSION

BTW Practice:  It is 911 Driving School’s practice to have two students in the instructional vehicle at all times.  There are instances when this is not possible.  By signing this form, you give 911 Driving School permission to conduct BTW (Behind the Wheel) training in a one-on-one setting. In the event that our instructors are unavailable, there may be a substitute Department of Licensing certified driving school instructor that is not a first responder. 

Behavior: Students and parents are fully accountable for their conduct. Students can be dismissed from the course for their misbehavior, cheating (whether sharing or receiving answers), being under the influence of drugs, including alcohol, during any of the instructional phases, misuse or abuse of Traffic Safety Education equipment, repeated and willful violation of traffic laws, failure to complete assigned work and multiple failed tests without a refund. If a parent cannot act in a calm and civil manner, students will be dismissed from the course they are enrolled in.

Attendance: Classroom and BTW instruction will be completed in not less than 30 days and not more than 3 contiguous months after the last day of class. Enrollment will not be allowed after the third class has started. Students must be 15 years old by the first day of class. No more than three absences permitted. All absences and failed test #4 (scoring less than 80%) must be made up. Students can be dismissed without refund from the course for excessive tardiness or unexcused absences. 

Certificate: Upon successful completion of all tests and activities required for our program and upon full payment of tuition and fees, a Traffic Safety Education Completion will be entered with DOL.  Extra behind the wheel time, whether desired or required, are $95 an hour.

Organ Donor: Washington State requires our course to include information about the Organ Donor Program. This portion of the course is optional.

Completion of this traffic safety course does not guarantee the student(s) will pass the DOL exam.
