Friendly Driver's Education Most driver education courses focus on what to do behind the wheel. Friendly Driver's Education starts one step earlier by teaching your teen how a vehicle actually works. Before covering intersections, freeways, and defensive driving, the course explains engines, transmissions, brakes, and other key systems. After all, it's a lot easier to respond to a warning light or recognize a problem when you understand what's happening under the hood. Through 20 lessons and accompanying worksheets, your teen will learn practical driving skills alongside real-world topics such as vehicle maintenance, insurance, accident procedures, buying a car, and interacting safely with school buses and emergency vehicles. The focus isn't just on passing a driving test—it's on becoming a capable, informed driver. Friendly Driver's Education also does a good job preparing teens for situations that don't show up on most written exams. What happens after a minor accident? What should you do if your battery dies? How do you shop for a vehicle without making an expensive mistake? Those questions get attention here, too. While the course does not currently satisfy state driver's education requirements, it is commonly counted as ¼ high school credit in Life Skills, or ½ credit with logged supervised driving practice. Prefer a different learning format? Friendly Driver's Education is also available as an audiobook and as a video license. In the video version, author Joey Hajda teaches the material step by step while your teen follows along in the text. The Family License includes unlimited household access with no expiration date, making it easy for younger siblings to use the course when their turn arrives. Access credentials for the video course are delivered by email and may take up to two business days after purchase. Please note that the video license is designed to accompany the course text and is not a stand-alone curriculum.
