Driver Safety Instructor
License Description

Occupational Description


Driving instructors teach students between the ages of 14 to 18 motor vehicle laws, vehicle operating tasks, occupant protection, establishing vehicle position, limited space movements, human functions, traffic flow tasks, driving environment, factors affecting performance (risk, attitude, emotion), other roadway users, alcohol and other drugs, insurance, responses to vehicle failure and driver errors, car control and mixing with traffic, and response to traffic conditions during the minimum of 20 hours of classroom instruction. The instructor teaches and observes students' driving during the required five hours of behind-the-wheel training. Once a student has passed a written and driving examination, the instructor enters this information into the Driver Licnesing waiver system and sends it electronically to the DMV. The student can then either apply online or in-person at a driver's license office, so a Provisional Operator's Permit or School Permit can be issued.
