WHAT IS JOSHUA’S LAW

Joshua’s Law requires teens who are seeking their initial Class-D drivers license to complete an approved Drivers Education course in the State of Georgia. This requirement came into effect in 2007. Joshua’s Law also provides insurance discounts to students who complete at least a basic Drivers Education program that includes at least 6 hours of behind the wheel driving.

How can I satisfy my students Joshua’s Law requirements?

Parents can choose any of the below course packages to satisfy their student’s Joshua’s Law requirements. Teen drivers also need a Alcohol and Drug Awareness Program (ADAP) certificate to obtain their license. All of the drivers education packages include the ADAP course at no additional charge.

Real accident and highway patrol footage compliments our curriculum to give our training a strong, memorable impact with students of all ages.

  • Instructors

    Your instructor is highly trained, licensed by the State of Georgia, and consists of a team of educators, coaches, counselors, public safety professionals, and other related fields. Instructors are often active or retired teachers from your local schools, who have gone through the background checks, training and licensing required to become a driving instructor.

  • Vehicles

    Our fleet of training vehicles are modern, safe and clean. We regularly buy new vehicles to keep them up to date with the newest technology and safety standards. Each vehicle uses Michelin tires and are heavily insured and maintained.

  • Instructor Feedback

    After each behind the wheel training appointment, you receive comprehensive feedback from your instructor with an evaluation on your strengths and weaknesses, giving you a strategy to help you practice at home.

  • One on One

    All of our behind the wheel driving appointments are one on one with the instructor. Instructors teach one student at a time, without any round-robin or “group driving” seen with other less effective programs.

  • FREE Local Home Pickup & Drop Off

    We offer free local pickup and drop off of our students for each behind the wheel driving appointment. This local area covers nearly all of Paulding County and West Cobb.

  • What we teach

    Each behind the wheel driving session is based on a curriculum with clear training goals, designed to allow the student to see daily improvement and work toward mastering their road skills.
