Defensive Driving Academy

3 two hour lessons. This TestElite program is our CertSilver program (below) plus on the last two hours we will prep and test the student at our facility in Newtown Square, or Pep Boys in Exton. DDA is certified by PennDOT to perform Third Party Non-Commercial License Testing. It's nice to have your DDA Coach on test day to calm things down and use our smaller car to warm up, practice parallel parking and take the test. This program is ideal for students who have a valid PA permit and would like to test with DDA at the end of their driving lessons instead of waiting 4 or 5 months to get a test at the local DMV. Beginning 6/10/19, DDA requires pickup and drop off at our office for testing.

4 two hour lessons. If you just need the most instruction at the lowest price, then these 4 two hour lessons can be used for "as you go" type instruction and includes your license test on the last lesson. Advanced students, however, may prefer to learn snow and ice simulation with downshifting and on the last two hours we will prep you so you can do some parallel parking warm-ups with your DDA Coach in a DDA car right before your test. This option is ideal for those who want maximum lesson flexibility, a certificate of completion for the teen insurance discount, and the convenience of testing at our facility instead of waiting 4 or 5 months to test at the local DMV. Beginning 6/10/19, DDA requires pick up and drop off at our office for testing.

3 two hour lessons. Although this option does not include license testing, it does include the minimum 6 hours of behind-the-wheel lessons required for a Certificate of Completion and insurance discount. Our CertSilver program includes a full evaluation of fundamental skills, new DDA tips and techniques, full prep for license test including parallel parking, as well as highway merging, not just the right way, but, as a defensive driving program, what to do one day when the merge lane runs out and things get tricky!

Want to master parallel parking? This 15 minute session will teach you our super-simplified parallel parking formula, the very method that we have taught to thousands of DDA students who have passed their license test on the first try. We have our own parallel parking spot, exactly the same as PennDOT's, where we will meet you, teach you, and lock it in once and for all in your vehicle. Finally, confidence and peace of mind at an affordable price!
