behind the wheel training ??

Bimmer Nerd · 03-27-2009, 06:00 PM

so i got my permit about 3 months ago (december 22) and now i think its time to start my behind the wheel training, i live in the 818 (san fernando valley) area and was wondering if anyone knew a good place that has some reasonable prices ??? because their are a LOT here but most of them were asking for like 400+

and i think thats WAY too much. so if anyone knows any instructor/ place where they do it for reasonable prices please make suggestions.

I went to Valley Wide Driving School in Granada Hills. I forget what I paid, this was back in 2002. I think it was around $300 for everything..meaning the class room training to get my permit and the hours needed for behind the wheel.

hahah i know bro, i can't get that certificate for 75$ and then just take the driving test after 6 months but i wanna drive though. but if its going to be that expensive then i just might go that route and practice with my parents a lot.

Don't think you're really gonna be able to do anything other than $350-400, and still have a legitimate session.

JW, how old are you?

if your parents are actually good drivers and will actually teach you instead of yelling then why not save the money? When I took behind the wheel driving it it only helped because no one was blowing my eardrums out.
