Times

Initially, the course meets from 6:00 pm – 8:30 pm, Mondays and Thursdays. When the driving phase begins (after about three weeks) you will be divided into two groups:
 

For safety reasons all adults must be dropped off and picked up outside the Traffic Safety Center, that is, outside the fenced area. If it is raining we will allow you to drive into the center and be dropped off or picked up.

There is a $250 lab fee for the course. A $150 deposit must be made when you register for the course. The remaining $100 will be collected by the end of the third week of class. Checks, money orders, or cash can be accepted. We cannot take credit cards. Please make checks payable to the School Board of Alachua County.

The staff at the Traffic Safety Center will do everything possible to prepare you for your final driving test, but we do not guarantee that you will pass. Excessive absences, as well as other factors, may prevent you from obtaining the skills needed to achieve a passing score.
