Atlantic Driving School

For over 20 years, we have successfully taught more than 5,000 students how to drive. Developed by Marco Lashin, our in-car training program is continuously updated to deliver proven results. We offer flexible training packages and provide convenient pick-up and drop-off service within our service area for our driver’s education program.* Each lesson is a two-hour, one-on-one session conducted entirely on the road with a state-certified driving instructor. We train in modern, late-model vehicles equipped with dual brakes, dual mirrors, and clear student-driver signage. Every session follows a structured lesson plan to ensure all essential driving skills are covered. Instructors grade each lesson, and students receive a copy of their progress report to track improvements and focus areas before their next session. Our 90-minute road test prep course ensures you are fully prepared for the state DMV exam. You will practice the exact procedures and skills required to pass, using one of our training cars. The course begins and ends at our facility and includes the fee for your first road test. The Florida DMV charges an additional $20 fee for second or third attempts. The actual road test is only offered on the same day, immediately following your prep course. We are the first and only driving school across 10 counties to administer third-party road tests at our facility, allowing you to skip the long DMV wait times and lines. A small nominal fee applies if you need to use our vehicle for your test.** Please note the following requirements for testing: You must hold a valid Florida learner’s permit. Out-of-state or international permits must first be converted to a Florida Class E Permit, or the test must be taken at the DMV. If you do not yet have a permit, call us for step-by-step instructions. Road test fees vary by selected options. All appointments must be booked and prepaid in advance. We do not accept walk-ins, collect payments on test day, or issue cancellations or refunds once an appointment is secured. When calling 863.298.9600 to schedule, please have your learner’s license and payment ready. Evening and Saturday appointments are available but highly limited, so please allow ample lead time. Upon successfully completing your road test with Lakeland Atlantic Driving School, LLC, you will receive an official certificate of completion. Present this certificate at any Florida DMV office to upgrade your permit to a full driver’s license.
