Illinois requires that all drivers under the age of 18 take a local driver education course either through the public school system, if offered, or through an available commercial driving school. (At this time there is NO provision for a parent taught course.)
Driver Ed in a Box® gives you the tools to work with your teen during the Permit stage. Illinois requires you spend a minimum of 50* hours supervising your teen driver during the permit time. Our course will guide you past the handling skills learned in traditional driver education, giving you the tools you need to teach the skills your teen driver needs to become a safe, collision-free driver. By combining the 50 hours Illinois requires with the tools you receive in Driver Ed in a Box®, you will help your teen build the habits of safe, collision-free driving (click here to access our Product Description page).
The Driver Ed in a Box® program gives you the tools to master the skills of each section of driving (we break it down to Parking Lot, Neighborhood, Two Lane and Four Lane Light Traffic, Freeway, Rural and Heavy Traffic). With our checklist and audio CDs, it allows the student to master the skills required in each area at their own pace before moving on to the next section. Once you have had your permit a minimum of 3 months and are at least 16 (Illinois state requirements), you can go to the local driver license examiner and take your road test.
To obtain a Driver License, the student must have a verification form signed by a parent or legal guardian verifying that the applicant has COMPLETED a minimum of 50 hours of behind-the-wheel practice.
