"This program has benefited me in that I could do it at my own time. I also like working with my dad, because I know and trust him. I do not like working with strangers because you barely know them. I left the parking lot on my own time and drove on the freeway when I felt ready. I liked how I was in an individual program and did not like other people talking in the back of the car. My dad was also very supportive and congratulated me when I did things right, and helped to fix the things that I did wrong." - M. E. O'Leary, Houston, Texas
"My vehicle training experience has been a good one. I began in a huge parking lot just like the video instructed. The videos show you just how to handle every situation. It takes the whole process step by step, not making it too difficult. It's a gradual process that does not expect too much from the student too fast....my parents have been very helpful and patient with me in my driving." - A.E., Baytown, Texas
"I learned everything I needed to prepare me for the road." - Ronnie Andrews, Selma, Alabama

"I enjoyed Driver Ed in a Box® because someone I have known all my life was teaching me, not some stranger. I feel that I am able to drive on my own and well on my way to being a superb driver!" - A.B.- Dallas, TX
"I am glad I got so much behind-the-wheel experience. My mom was a great driving instructor."-Student Katy, TX
I feel now more than ever that I am prepared to drive on my own that if I had gone to a state run driver ed program under the responsibility of someone other than my parents. Student, Edmund, OK |

"It worked well for me and I have recommended this program to many of my friends who have parents willing enough to spend that much time in a car with their child who is learning to drive." - C.E.O., Houston, Texas

| "I was impressed with much of the information, because it not only stressed the importance of driving safely, but also explained in detail how to do that. Things like the small mirrors for the passenger and the audio tapes made the driving less nerve-wracking for everyone involved. It was neat going step-by-step with the guys on the tape, gradually learning more and more. I especially liked how, at the beginning, they had the parent get out of the car and into the blind spot, while the student looks for them using the rear-views and side-view mirrors. That helped me know exactly where the blind spot was and where I needed to look when changing lanes. The main emphasis of the entire course was safety and the many tips the guys on the tape gave evidenced that. One of the tips that really stuck in my head was this: When you are the first car at a red light, when the light turns green, don't just go right into the intersection assuming you have the right of way. Look before you leap. They told a story of someone who looked before going, and that saved her and her passenger's lives. That made a good impression on me and I have done that ever since. I believe this course has helped me to become a good driver. I have had no accidents of tickets as of yet (nor do I plan to get any, if it is up to me), mainly because of this course. I have benefited greatly from taking this course, and my mom even learned some things. Overall, the course was a wonderful tool for instruction on how to become a good, defensive driver. I would recommend it to anyone who wants to become a safe driver! It's great. Keep up the good work." – C.R.W., Mesa, Arizona |

"My dad has been the parent to drive with me, and we have had much fun with the experience. There have naturally been a few tense moments, but it has given us a lot of time to talk and even a few laughs. We started in the parking lot and have worked our way up. The Check Lists of things to learn helped us be sure not to miss anything. We have found the Commentary terms very helpful. They assure us both that I am doing the right thing and concentrating on the driving task." - S.R.S., Spring, Texas |

"This course has made me aware of dangerous driving habits in other drivers and how to compensate for them on the road. I like the goal of making me a collision-free driver. There couldn't have been a better teacher than my mom. Having my mom next to me during the training was beneficial to both of us. She owned up to her own mistakes and now we should be a family of safer drivers. Thank you, Driver Ed in a Box!!" - E.K., Georgetown, Texas |

"The best part of this program is that I can do it at home in my own time over a few months. Because my mom was my instructor, I was able to spend quality time with her. It was fun to be able to be comfortable with my teacher. I liked the lack of pressure you get from a classroom atmosphere. I'm glad that I had one-on-one learning; this way, I was able to ask all the questions I had! I think I will be a great driver because my mom has helped me learn all the terminology and we use it to describe situations. I will be a good driver because I have been able to practice a lot during the in-car sessions." - BLG, Dallas, Texas |
