About
Virginia
Driving School |
Virginia Driving School
was established in Manassas, Prince William County in 1999 to
meet the growing demand for driving schools in the area with the
passion for traffic safety in mind. We know safe drivers are
created through a personal commitment - a commitment to drive in
ways that save lives, time, and money. Our goal is to expose
your child to a variety of driving experiences that will develop
him or her, safe, responsible and defensive driver. Most of our
instructors are college graduates, and have years of driving
experience.
Many driving schools in
the area will teach your child how to drive. But at Virginia Driving School, not only
do we
teach how to drive, but how to be a safe, responsible, and defensive driver
too. Our curriculum
is designed to meet the developmental needs
of your child and incorporates learning in our well-equipped
classrooms and vehicles.
At our school, emphasis is
placed on linking visual
search skills, space management, and balanced vehicle movement
to risk-reducing driving strategies. Significant attention is
given to risk awareness, driver alertness, and responsible
actions relative to occupant protection devices, positive
interactions with other roadway users, and the physical and
psychological conditions that affect driver performance.
At Virginia
Driving School, we understand the importance of appropriate
educational experiences
for each individual student. Our
instructors are well trained, enthusiastic individuals who have
been
selected for their educational back-grounds and experiences, and
their dedication to traffic safety
issues involving teenagers.

Fuel
Saving Tips
|
-
Drive at steady speeds on
the highway.
Over-acceleration and
frequent braking use more
fuel.
-
Immediately ease off the
accelerator
pedal when the brake lights
of the car ahead
of you come on. You might
not have to brake
at all, thus saving both
fuel and wear on the brakes.
In addition, you will not
waste fuel by have to
accelerate to highway speed
again.
-
If possible, approach
highway traffic signals so
that you will arrive when
light is green.
