Michigan's Driver Education curriculum is split into two segments and is required for all teen drivers under age 18.
Segment 1 driver education is offered before the driver begins supervised driving. It requires a minimum of 24 hours of classroom instruction (must attend all days, no exceptions including school events) and a minimum of six hours of behind-the-wheel instruction. Before beginning Segment 1, a teen must be 14 years, 8 months of age and have parent/guardian permission. (Behind-the-wheel instruction may take place outside of regular class day/time for up to 3 weeks after the last day of scheduled class.)
Segment 2 driver education is offered after the driver has held a valid MI Graduated Level 1 Learner's License (from MI Secretary of State) for at least three continuous months and has acquired 30 hours of driving experience time including a minimum of two hours of night driving. Segment 2 requires a minimum of six hours of classroom instruction (must attend all days, no exceptions).
Our classes are taught by Bedford Public School Teachers who are Certified State of Michigan Driver Education Instructors.
