===========================================
Notice to Students and Parents:
There is a current trend for driver's ed companies
to state that it is not the responsibility of the
instructor to actually *teach* but instead to
merely *observe* and *assess* its students
and that the responsibility for teaching the
student falls entirely upon the parents.
>>>Please be aware that this is completely untrue.<<<
The Commonwealth of Virginia Department of Motor Vehicles
absolutely *requires* its instructors to teach their students the professional knowledge, skills, and maneuvers necessary to become capable and adept drivers.
The parents' role is to provide practice time and general knowledge
to create familiarity with the vehicle and comfort in maneuvering
on the roadway. This is why we recommend that parents obtain a
Controller(tm) Brake, as an excellent recourse for controlling the vehicle when the new student is practicing.
The Ashburn Driving School has built its foundation and ongoing
trusted reputation upon the professional skills and maneuvers
that we carefully teach and the knowledge that we impart to each of our students.
Feel free to call us at 703-431-6728 should you have any questions;
and should you wish to let the DMV know of any situation in which an instructor did not meet the DMV standards, DMV can be reached
at 804-367-7050, pressing 1 to receive a callback.
