Since 1994, our partner company TrafficSchool.com has been educating drivers throughout California including teen drivers with an online drivers ed course. Several years ago, TrafficSchool.com branched off its teen drivers education course by adding a revolutionary behind-the-wheel training curriculum forming Drivers Ed Direct. As a separate company, Drivers Ed Direct can focus on creating drivers ed courses and drivers training products more geared towards teens and new drivers.

To date, Drivers Ed Direct has helped thousands upon thousands of teens in California earn their learner's permit and driver's license!

Yes! Drivers Ed Direct is bonded, insured, & California DMV licensed. Our official driving school number is DS #4141.

Since our inception, we have taken pride in the fact that we are not just another old fashioned, out-dated driving school. Drivers Ed Direct differentiates itself from other driving schools locally and throughout the world with its innovative approach towards drivers education:

Best Online Courses:

Our drivers ed courses surpass state requirements and exceed customers expectations when it comes to online education. Whereas most "driving schools" borrow course curriculum from other drivers education providers, Drivers Ed Direct actually developed its very own 30-hour equivalent drivers education course. Written by a state traffic safety consultant, it's no surprise that our course is not just DMV accepted, it is CA DMV APPROVED!

Best Driving Instructors:

Word has spread fast that Drivers Ed Direct's driving instructors are hands-down the best in the business. Not only do our customers appreciate that our training crew is professional, in uniform, and on time, they also love the quality of education imparted. Each of our driving instructors is highly trained, DMV licensed, and an expert driver. Also, we are one of the few driving schools that offer your choice of instructor, either male or female, and lists instructor bios online for you to check out yourselves. In addition, we screen all of our instructors thoroughly by performing independent drug tests, background checks, and driving record checks. Finally, we specifically hire instructors who are personable, patient, and have previous experience working with teens.

Best Training Vehicles:

If you follow the world of driving school news, you've probably heard that Drivers Ed Direct is revolutionizing the drivers ed industry by being the first and only Green Driving School! All of our drivers training vehicles are Hybrid powered. Furthermore, Drivers Ed Direct is one of the only schools in the nation to offer driving lessons in either a car or SUV - you have the choice between a Toyota Prius or Ford Escape Hybrid SUV. Besides being environmentally friendly, our vehicles are also parent friendly and come equipped with extra safety features like dual brakes, front and side airbags, ABS, vehicle stability control (skid & roll-over) systems, and real-time GPS location and speed monitoring.
