Teen drivers may apply for a permit at the age of 15, with the approval of a parent or legal guardian. Prior to applying for a permit, your teen must complete a 4-hour Drug Alcohol Traffic Awareness (DATA) course. Driver Ed in a Box® gives you the tools to work with your teen during the Permit stage. Florida requires you spend a minimum of 50 hours supervising your teen driver during the permit time. Our course will guide you past the handling skills learned in traditional driver education, giving you the tools you need to teach the skills your teen driver needs to become a safe, collision-free driver. By combining the 50 hours Florida requires with the tools you receive in Driver Ed in a Box®, you will help your teen build the habits of safe, collision-free driving (click here to access our Product Description page). Driver Ed in a Box® creates habits that are proven to be effective (see Survey).
The Driver Ed in a Box® program gives you the tools to master the skills of each section of driving (we break it down to Parking Lot, Neighborhood, Two Lane and Four Lane Light Traffic, Freeway, Rural and Heavy Traffic). With our checklist and audio CDs, it allows the student to master the skills required in each area at their own pace before moving on to the next section. Once you have had your permit a minimum of one year, have completed your 50 hours behind-the-wheel instruction and are at least 16 (Florida state requirements), you can go to the local driver license examiner and take your road test. |
