COURSE INFORMATION

 

FULL COURSE  (In-Class and In-Car Instruction) ($650) 

The State of Ohio requires teens to complete 24 hours of In-Class instruction and eight (8) hours of In-Car training. Our students attend in-class sessions at one of our  two locations (Trenton Ohio and Carlisle Ohio). Our in-car training consists of private lessons that ensure a one-to-one learning experience for each student with a certified instructor. (Please note, occasionally, there may be a second student in a car temporarily as we exchange and transport student drivers).

B-SAFE Driving Education in-classroom Trenton and Carlisle begin every Monday at 5:15 – 9:30 during the regular school year. Special circumstances may be arranged if a student misses a day during their course.

A teen may begin driving education at age of 15 years and five months, even before they are eligible to obtain a driving permit. At the age of 15 and six months a person may apply for a permit to start their in-car training.

The full cost of the the full course (both in-class and in-car instruction) is $650/per student.  We do offer $10 off per student for teen driving siblings who are taking the driving course at the same time and do in car back to back. We also offer a $25  military discount to active service members and veterans. Must present ID. (CAC, VA ID, or armed forces stamp on drivers licenses). Discounts do not combine.

Instruction

B-SAFE Driving Education classroom instruction is held three evenings per week, year round, from 5:15 – 9:30 PM on Mondays, Tuesdays and Wednesdays at both of our locations (Trenton and Carlisle). Class length equals 12 hrs per week, so completing two weeks of classroom training, without absence, would complete the 24 hours of classroom training  required by the state of Ohio.  In the summer, we also offer morning classes at the Trenton and Carlisle locations.

The eight (8) hours of In-Car Training cannot begin until after the student has completed their 24 hours of classroom education, has passed a written test, and has a valid permit.

We schedule in-car training per our instructor and car availability, and we work hard to schedule drivers as soon as we can but we do not make any promises as to when we will get your student scheduled. The driving portion is normally scheduled in four 2-hour blocks, and we try to be flexible with pick-up and drop-off locations. Normally we will pick up at school or home and drop the student back off at home.

PLEASE NOTE:  Full payment for your student is required before a student can be scheduled for in-car training. 

Completion of Instruction

A “Certification of Completion” will be issued at the end of the course, after both the in-class and in-car training have been completed. All driver education must be paid for and completed within six (6) months from the date the student starts classroom instruction – per Chapter 4501-7.10 of the Ohio Revised Code (ORC). Although we cannot guarantee that all students will pass their required classroom test or their BMV driving test, of course, we will do our very best to teach them everything they need to know to do so, and to be responsible and safe drivers. Do NOT schedule your drivers test until you have your certificate of completion from B-SAFE. Generally your certificate will be emailed to you within 1 to 3 business days.

For Trenton students, Please call our Trenton main office at 513-988-7233 with any general questions or to inquire about how far out we are currently booking Behind-the-Wheel training.

SCHEDULE TO DRIVE

 

The State of Ohio requires eight (8) hours of in-car driving with a certified instructor as an important part of the student’s driving education. At B-SAFE we do this in 4 even increments of 2 hour sessions, in a B-SAFE state-inspected vehicle, 1-on-1 with the instructor.

Please note that we make no promises as to when in car will be complete. We will do the best we can to get your students in car done as quickly as possible without making changes, the contract allows up to 6 months as long as we make good faith attempts to get you done in time. Call which ever location you are closer to for an estimation of where we are currently scheduling.  While a deposit will reserve a spot for students to begin in-class instructions, all fees must be paid in full to be added to the waiting list to be scheduled for in-car training. Please wait a minimum of two weeks after course completion before e-mailing the B-SAFE scheduler (Trenton area students call 513-988-5716, Carlisle area call or text 513-277-9898) regarding scheduling.

B-SAFE uses Schedule2drive.com  to schedule student drivers. All scheduling must be completed online by our B-SAFE staff scheduler, and cannot be done by students or parents. Scheduling is a lengthy and complicated process that can sometimes take several weeks to months depending on the availability of the student and staff. We do the very best we can for each student, and we appreciate your patience.

Once scheduled, you will receive an email with instructions on how to log into Schedule2drive to view your student’s drive times, to make cancellations and how to request changes. You will have five (5) business days from the time you receive your notification email to log in and view your schedule. If you do not log in within that period you may lose those drive times. Once you have logged in and reviewed the scheduled dates, the times are confirmed and there is nothing more you need to do to confirm your drive times. The  student should be at the designated pick up location on the date and time shown and students MUST HAVE THEIR DRIVING PERMIT WITH THEM TO SHOW THE INSTRUCTOR OR IN-CAR SESSIONS WILL BE CANCELLED.

If these times do not work, please follow the procedure described in your notification email to re-schedule. All In-Car Training cancellations must be done online per the instructions on the green card, a minimum of 24 hours in advance to avoid a $50.00 late cancellation fee, and cancellation must be done prior to calling our office to reschedule.
