Behind-The-Wheel Phase
The basic classroom ideas and concepts are applied to the driving phase. Habits and skills are developed for residential, city, and highway driving with special emphasis on specific maneuvers. Six hours of driving instruction are necessary to meet the state requirement for applying for a driver‘s license. This course requires the payment of a user‘s fee as well as the fee paid to the State of Illinois for a driver‘s permit.
