Driver Education - Driving School The AAA Driving School is designed to provide the full driving education experience to new drivers through both Classroom and In-Car instruction. These programs and the instructors are approved by the Pennsylvania Department of Education. If both Classroom and In-car sessions are completed successfully, young drivers may apply for a regular, unrestricted license before their 18th birthday. Many insurance companies, including the AAA Insurance Agency, will lower insurance premiums for the student who completes both programs. (Check with your agent for discount information). A Pennsylvania Driver's Manual to assist students through the licensing process can be obtained at a PennDOT examination point or at any of the AAA offices. Training is conducted in a AAA owned automatic transmission car that is equipped with dual controls. Training cars are insured and in good operating condition. Classroom Instruction Classes are scheduled several times throughout the year, in Lancaster only, offering a wide range of invaluable information to the new driver. Course includes: Influence of emotions on driving ability Alcohol/Drug risk awareness Signs and signals Emergency preparedness Different environmental influences Pennsylvania motoring laws Classroom Requirements: Preregistration 30 hours for certification. Any missed classroom sessions must be made up during a corresponding session. It is the students responsibility for making arrangements with the Driving School office for ANY missed classes. Parents/Guardians must check in with the instructor the first night. An agreement form that needs to be signed, will be presented to the parent/guardian at the first session. 2010 Driving School Classroom Schedule Location Dates Days Time AAA, Estelle Drive (Lancaster) Jan 5 - Feb 23 Tue and Thu 6:00 - 8:00pm   Mar 16 - May 4 Tue and Thu 6:00 - 8:00pm In-Car Instruction This part of the program is flexible to accommodate the student's schedule.
