Our defensive driving course in Raleigh teaches 6 essential techniques: (1) Hazard Recognition - identifying potential dangers before they become threats, (2) Space Management - maintaining safe following distances and the 3-second rule, (3) Speed Management - adjusting speed for weather and road conditions, (4) Collision Avoidance - defensive maneuvers to prevent accidents, (5) Distracted Driving Prevention - staying focused behind the wheel, and (6) NC Traffic Laws - understanding current regulations. These proven defensive driving techniques help you become a safer driver.
We are both! We operate as a driving improvement clinic in Raleigh, NC offering court-approved defensive driving courses. We are also recognized as one of the best driving schools in Raleigh for defensive driving education. However, we provide CLASSROOM-BASED instruction (online and in-person), NOT behind-the-wheel driving lessons. Our courses teach defensive driving techniques and principles - not how to operate a vehicle.
No, we do NOT offer private driving lessons or behind-the-wheel training. We specialize exclusively in DEFENSIVE DRIVING EDUCATION - classroom-based courses (available online and in-person) that teach defensive driving techniques, traffic laws, and safe driving principles. If you're looking for someone to teach you how to physically drive a car, we are not the right fit. Our courses are designed for licensed drivers who need insurance discounts, point reduction, or court-ordered defensive driving education.
Both courses can be court-ordered depending on your traffic violation - the court determines which length is required based on the offense. The 4-hour course covers essential defensive driving techniques and NC traffic laws, and can also be taken voluntarily for insurance discounts (up to 15% savings) or voluntary point reduction. The 8-hour driving improvement clinic is more comprehensive, including everything in the 4-hour course plus advanced defensive driving techniques, collision prevention strategies, and more in-depth coverage of NC traffic laws. Both courses are accepted by insurance companies and courts in NC, SC, and VA.
Yes! Our defensive driving courses in Raleigh, NC are available 100% online or in-person at our Durham location (serving all of Raleigh, Chapel Hill, Cary, and the Triangle). The online defensive driving course is equally valid and accepted by courts and insurance companies. You can complete the course from home at your own pace, learning the same defensive driving techniques as our in-person classes. Choose the format that fits your schedule - both deliver the same quality defensive driving education.
