Roadrunner Driving School

We provide Drivers Education for teenagers under the age of 18 at our classroom on the west side of Farmers Lane, across from Montgomery Village. Each class is 4 days, from 8 30am to 4 00pm.

State law requires students under the age of eighteen to practice driving AT LEAST 50 hours, including 10 at night, with a California licensed driver over the age of 25. Record practice hours to track day/night time minutes and where you drove to be sure you are getting a variety of practice. We will provide a two sided log you can use. It takes many hours of supervised driving experience in a of all types of traffic and conditions for students to develop the necessary skills, confidence, timing and judgment to be safe when they begin driving alone. Learning to drive is an experience you’re probably looking forward to with great anticipation and enthusiasm. We hope to make that experience challenging, educational, and enjoyable. Our goal is to teach you how to drive defensively and courteously. It is your responsibility to practice and continue using, the skills you learn. We have a general plan for each of the three driving lessons, but all lessons are tailored to work within the beginning student’s level of skill and confidence.

Drivers who must take a DMV drive test to renew a license, or avoid a suspension, may be uncertain of their skills and what will be required during the driving exam. A brush-up lesson or evaluation may be helpful to restore confidence, minimize anxiety and improve skills. The better prepared you are the less nervous you will feel. We want to help, and that includes being straight forward about your current driving skills and safety. Please call 546-3238 for more information and remember, instructors may be booked several weeks out, so call well before your scheduled DMV drive test.

Evaluations are available at the request of family members concerned about a senior driver’s current skills, especially if there has been in a medical event such as a stroke or heart attack. Be sure your loved one is willing to participate and that their license is not on a medical suspension. If the license is suspended, the licensee will have received a letter of Notification of Suspension from the Traffic Safety Office in San Francisco. You will need to acquire a Temporary Instructional Permit from that office before an evaluation can be scheduled. It may be helpful to view the “Senior Guide for Safe Driving”, available online, in our office, or the nearest DMV office. Please call us for more information 546-3238. We will do our best to assist you through this process.
