About Our Wheat Ridge Adult Driving Lessons
All of our driving lessons are conducted one-on-one with state-certified driving instructors. We understand that a driving test can be intimidating, so our expert driving school instructors work hard to create a motivating learning environment that boosts both competency and confidence behind the wheel.
All of our driving instructors are highly trained to demonstrate and teach the state standard of safe driving practices. For further peace of mind, all the driving lessons take place in our DriveSafe cars equipped with ample safety features.

One-on-one behind-the-wheel lessons designed to build a foundation of safe driving habits and are tailored to the driver education needs of each individual student
Highly trained, state-certified instructors who are passionate about helping students develop the skills to be safe drivers for life.

When it comes to searching for driving lessons for adults, there is no one-size-fits-all approach. Some driving school students, such as new drivers, may need more time with a professional driving instructor, so our driving school offers 6, 10, and 20-hour behind-the-wheel driving courses to give multiple options to fit your needs. Additionally, DriveSafe Driving Schools offer 1 or 2-hour refresher courses, or we can focus on the driving skills you wish to improve, such as parallel parking or freeway driving.

1-Hour Drivers Refresher Course + License Test

With flexible weekend and weekday appointments available, we can schedule your drive test whenever works for you. Our students love the option of testing with DriveSafe because it is friendlier, faster, and less stressful than testing at the DMV (when they still offered driving tests).
Because the Drivers License Test evaluates more than 100 items, you may consider upgrading to Behind-the-Wheel Two Plus Drive Test to add an additional hour of preparation. Read more on that below:
2-Hour Full Driving Lesson + Driver’s License Test

Your highly-trained, state-certified instructor will focus on the skills you need to be a safe driver and pass your official driving test with DriveSafe.
Our driving school’s normal business hours are open for weekday and weekend appointments for driving tests, so you can schedule a time that is best for you.
The driving test evaluates over 100 items that measure your skill and knowledge of legal and safe driving practices. With this 2-hour lesson, we’ll cover practical driving skills and abilities and a thorough review of safe driving habits, all of which will help you become a safe driver and successfully pass your test to receive your drivers license.
How Much Does It Cost to Take Adult Driving Lessons?
Driving lessons vary in cost because every student’s driver education journey differs. Many students require professional instruction and additional practice to fully develop their confidence and safety habits behind the wheel, and may even wish to add defensive driving training for car insurance discounts. For others, meeting their minimal training requirements and practicing outside of a driving school with a legal guardian on their own drive time is enough. Wherever you fall on the spectrum, you are worth the time and investment it takes to achieve your driving goals and pass your written and road tests, whichever program you deem the right path for you.
