Shield Driving School was founded in 2005 by Brad Bixler, a drivers’ ed teacher at Central Dauphin High School who saw the need for a higher-quality program in the Harrisburg area. He partnered with local police departments and brought together qualified traffic safety professionals who work one-on-one with each student. Two former PennDOT examiners are also part of our team. Quality driving instruction builds the foundation for safe, lifelong habits behind the wheel. At Shield Driving School, our instructors make sure every student gains the essential skills, knowledge, and good habits that lead to safer roads.
