Adult Behind The Wheel Training

Sweet Sisters Driving School takes pride in teaching the practices of safe and defensive driving. All our instructors are highly qualified, licensed, and certified by the DMV. Our number one focus is safety, and our goal is to make your introduction to driving enjoyable. All our cars are new model Ford Mustangs that are equipped with the highest safety standards, including a duel brake system to ensure the instructor maintains control of the car at all times. All driving lessons are tailored to each individual’s specific needs. We understand that driving lessons are not a requirement in order to get your license as an adult, however, we feel everyone can benefit from a little time behind the wheel with us. All our instructors are extremely patient and very capable of helping you feel comfortable behind the wheel. We know that once you feel comfortable and confident, making basic maneuvers becomes much easier. Whether this is your first time driving, or you’re looking for a refresher, we’re here to help.

 

Here at Sweet Sisters, we have helped many adults who have lost their license for a medical condition or because of an accident, as well as a wide range of drivers from all across the globe. There are many regulations and limitations on driving in the US with an out-of-country license, so in order to drive with us, you will need to have at least one of the following:

  • Valid CA Driver's License
  • Valid CA Temporary License
  • Valid CA Learners Permit
  • Valid CA special Instructional Permit
  • Valid International License 

We cannot take anyone who has a license from another country that isn't an International License. We also are not able to take anyone who has a learners permit from another state. We are more than happy to help you with any questions as you go through this process.

 

Here are some of the topics covered during a lesson:

  • Seat, hand and feet positions
  • Seatbelt, mirrors and signals
  • Instruments, gears, horns and lights
