    No, unfortunately we do not offer pick-up and drop-off services for our driving lessons. Lessons begin and end at Mountain Brook High School. We use the school cars for lessons. Your instructor will contact you to confirm the exact location to meet.


    Scroll all the way to the bottom and add the students name to the waitlist. When I add more slots, I email everyone on signup genius and you can reserve a driving slot. My schedule stays booked 3-4 months in advance but my other two instructors usually add slots weekly. We work hard to get everyone scheduled before their 16th birthday.


    Yes. Adults can take the driving lessons and we will prepare them to take the driving test at the DMV, if that is their goal. Adults must have a learner's license before beginning the lessons.
