DRIVING SCHOOL IN MADISON



Mad area driving School feels very honored to be considered as one of the top Google rated driving schools in Wisconsin with a near 5.0 rating but this expert from a DMV supervisor and previous road test examiner says it all
Hi I'm Jeff , and my daughter is finally ready for Driver's Ed. I don't know if you remember me, but for several years I was a road test examiner at the Madison West DMV location on Sheboygan Ave and later Excelsior. Over the years of running road tests, I definitely got to know the schools around the area fairly well, and you guys routinely stood out as being the best. I'm wondering what the schedule is like for the coursework, and what my daughter would be looking at as far as a weekly routine. Thanks!" ""

Back to top       Teen-Aged Programs
Statistics show that Teenagers are the one group of drivers most prone to crashes due to their inexperience. Students who learn and follow defensive driving techniques can mitigate some of their inexperience through knowledge. Defensive Driving Program MAD-AREA Driving School is a Department Of Transportation licensed driver-training course. At Mad-Area defensive driving is more than just a concept, it’s a proven science! Students Learn about IPDE, using the SMITH SYSTEM and ZONE CONTROL.

They’ll learn about using active scanning techniques, and using these techniques to Identify and Predict potential conflicts. These techniques,both behind the wheel and in the classroom, work together to prevent crashes, reduce injuries, and lessen damage to a motor vehicle.

     Adult Programs
If you are an adult and never had any driver education, mastering the skills of the modern road can be confusing. Driving a motor vehicle is much more than learning how to steer, or how hard to press on the pedals. We start with basics, and move through the more complex aspects of operating a motor vehicle. More advanced sessions will teach you techniques on emergency avoidance and how to prevent potential conflicts.
