Overview

Nichols Driving School has been serving the community since the 1930s, passing through a few changes in ownership along the way. In 1985, Sharon Whitmore took the wheel, and for over 30 years she successfully ran the business. As of January 2019, Sherry is stepping down as owner and operator, turning the school over to her daughter, Bobbi Jo Cliche. Bobbi Jo has been a licensed driving instructor for more than 20 years and has been closely involved in the school’s operations for much of that time. With her deep experience and capable leadership, she’s well prepared to carry on the school’s legacy. The team at Nichols Driving School remains dedicated to teaching the rules and regulations of Massachusetts driving with pride.

  • On Road Lessons

    The State of Massachusetts requires all young adults under the age of 18 to complete 12 hours of certified "Behind the Wheel" driving time and 6 hours of "in car" observation time. Nichols Driving School has the ability to have two Driving School Cars on the road in order to fulfill this requirement in a timely fashion. All vehicles are equipped with a passenger side brake so rest assured the instructor is in control at all times.

  • Parent Class

    Massachusetts strives to have parents involved in every aspect of their Child's driving. In so doing they have required every parent to attend one class and become aware of their children’s training they will receive. This class is a way for parents to ask the questions they need to and to better understand our ever changing rules and regulations. Parents are also required to sign off that they have driven a minimum of 40 hours with their child (30 if the student has taken a drivers skills development program) before they are able to apply for their road test.
