Course Components
1. 30 hours FLEXIBLE, self-paced online classes
Drive Right online drivers ed is an excellent choice for several reasons. The curriculum is approved by the IDOT, meeting and exceeding the standards for in-person driver education. Students can work at their own pace and as a result, can study when they are ready to learn.

Drive Right Lessons are detailed and easy to facilitate. Each lesson has specific objectives for practice to provide the experiences your child needs to become a responsible and safe driver. Content from driving lessons can be practiced and reviewed many times to gain experience and mastery. They best way to learn and develop safe habits is by gaining driving experiences. The lessons provide parents the tools to help their child during driver education and as they develop through their teen years.
3. Final driving lesson/evaluation with a Drive Right Instructor.
The Drive Right student lesson/evaluation is conducted by a certified Iowa law enforcement officer. The insight of the instructor brings experience in traffic safety, the enforcement of traffic laws and OWI, and educating youth through the roles of SRO and D.A.R.E., for the highest quality of instruction and evaluation.

We chose the Drive Right Program over other alternatives simply because it fit in our family schedule and the other didn't. We knew a couple other families that had chosen it previously and enjoyed it. I was honestly a little skeptical to begin with, but knew this fit our schedule the best. The program far exceeded my expectations and our daughter thoroughly enjoyed it and is driving very, very well. I highly recommend this program as it is well organized and designed. THANK YOU!

I would highly recommend this program for young drivers. It is self paced and covers important components of driving that I was able to help explain and discuss with my son. It gave me peace of mind to share the experience with him, knowing that he was understanding the assignments and rules of the road.

Drive Right was a fantastic option for our family. I appreciated my daughter being able to work at her own pace. I was pleased to know she also tested out with a police officer. Made me feel more confident about her final driving abilities that a cop passed her.

DRIVE RIGHT PROGRAM COVERED MANY DIFFERENT SITUATIONS AND QUALITY DRIVE TIME. THIS PROGRAM WAS VERY EASY TO COMPLETE WHEN CONVIENENT. DYLAN DID WELL WITH HIS DIFFERENT TESTING AND HAS DRIVEN WELL ON HIS OWN.

I liked the ability to do the driving lessons at times that were convenient for our family. We were also able to repeat lessons together and talk through all the things one may encounter on the road. The lessons were easy for me to follow as a parent in order to help bring out the key points to my son while practicing driving.

From a parent perspective, this was far superior to traditional drivers ed. Lots of time to reinforce good habits and practices. Calla is our 2nd kid to take your classes, and they are excellent in my opinion.

My boys definitely got the most out of the recording of the different driving tasks. Thinking and verbally stating each step, really helped instill proper techniques.

Thank you!! TJ is my youngest, my oldest did drivers Ed through our school, my middle did drivers Ed during Covid so his class ended up online, this class was by far my favorite. Thank you for providing a class that not only provided a solid driving education for my child but was very simple for me. This is a great course and I will be recommending it to others.

We heard about this program through our neighbors and decided to have our 14-year-old son complete Drivers Ed with online lessons and parent-led driving lessons. It was a fantastic program and Tim Hungerford was great! Strongly recommend this driving program for teenage drivers!

We are about halfway done with this program and are happy with it. The parent led driving lessons are structured nicely and it provides excellent discussion/instruction points.

We loved this program! Our middle son will be using this as well!

I want to say thank you for offering this program to students. It has been a good bonding experience for myself and my daughter, while giving me some security in her driving ability. I also want to say thank you to the officer that she took her driving exam with. He was extremely friendly and professional. My daughter was so nervous prior to going, but left his car with a smile on her face. THANK YOU!!! I will definitely use your services for my son as well as recommend your program to other parents.
