SOUTH DAKOTA

DRIVER EDUCATION

 

Driver Ed in a Box® will satisfy all of your teenager’s driver education needs and at the same time teach them to become a safe, collision-free driver.  In South Dakota, you do not need to take any other driver education course (either through the school system or from a commercial school).

 

The first 6 hours of the classroom included in our course, combined with the South Dakota Driver Manual, will give your teen all the information they need to pass the testing requirements and receive their learner permit at age 14.

 

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.  All of this is completed during the state required permit time.  Once you have had your permit a minimum of 6 months and are at least 14 ½ (South Dakota state requirements), you can go to the local driver license examiner and take your road test.

Parents using Driver Ed in a Box® to work directly with their teen and supervise their progress ensures the safest teen drivers on the road.

Parent/student comments:

"I believe that Driver Ed in a Box® has made me into a much safer driver than I would be if I hadn't taken a driver ed course. Thank you for putting me on the right path to be a safe, collision-free driver." - P.G., Colton, South Dakota

 

"Driver Ed in a Box® has benefited me by teaching me how to drive safely. The repetitions helped me to develop good habits that have stayed with me. The importance of reading the traffic scene far ahead and looking over my shoulder before I make a lane change have become second nature to me, making driving in heavy traffic much easier." - Lauren R. Hall, Student

 

"We were traveling home at night on the interstate with our student at the wheel when we came up behind a drunk driver. Our student was very calm and confident as he kept a safe distance as the drunk weaved from side to side doing 75+ mph." - K.G., Colton, SD
