How to Take Driving Classes at Schools in Staten Island
New York City streets are some of the busiest streets in the country. If you're afraid of trying to learn how to drive on the busy Manhattan streets, you can always look for a school in the borough of Staten Island. The streets are much less jam-packed, and there are plenty of schools that offer driving lessons to first-time drivers. Most schools offer four, seven, 10, or 15 class lessons, and they are usually private, one-hour sessions. Prices will vary from school to school, so it's best to call the school to check before you book a lesson.

Search for a driving school that you want to take lessons at. Most people will probably look for the cheapest prices, but it may be best to look for a certified driving clinic. Call the DMV and ask for a list of certified driving schools in Staten Island. You can also find this list online, but since it is updated so frequently, it's best to call and speak to a real person at the DMV to get the most updated information.

Select the driving school you would like to attend, and set up an appointment. Most schools will allow you to make a reservation through their website (if they have one), but you may want to call them and schedule your classes that way. Over the phone, you'll be able to talk to the instructor and work out the best times for you to take classes.

Tell the instructor where you are located and they will likely pick you up at your home, and then you will begin a full 60-minute private lesson. This completely depends on the driving school you choose, but most schools operate the same way.
