Driving school for teens

Recommended Posts

I want to send my son to a driving class. I know gtg sent her son to one in Charlotte, but I need something closer to home around Raleigh/Wilson.

I've tried googling, but this computer blocks all the sites.

And another thing, why block defensive driving classes? I understand facebook, but defensive driving classes links?

Yeah, he's had driver's ed. I want him to take a defensive driving class. One of my biggest fears is him running off the road and over correcting. Whenever I try to teach him something, I get called a backseat driver. I also don't want to teach him how to correct a skid in my car.

This is exactly how my parents felt. I took the a defensive driving class a couple years ago and it was pretty helpful. I'd recommend it

Then I would tell him to get his ass in the back seat while I drove... my 15 y.o. is in drivers ed now and will get his permit in January... we'll see how that goes. My biggest fear with him is inattentiveness... he's just like his momma in that regard and she's one of the worst drivers ever. He will NOT be learning from her.

    • Yes.  And this converts directly to confidence.  Does the coach have confidence to call a deep dig or seam route?  Does Bryce have confidence in his ability to be the Alpha?  Do his teammates have confidence.  About film--when I see Cam Newton's pre-snap confidence vs. Bryce's, it is night and day.   Film--tells you if the WRs are open (why l love watching the Replay telecasts from the end zone cameras--you can see it.  I have seen 2 WRs open and Bryce's eyes are on the outlet WR or the pass rush. )  You can see progressions, and he has improved a bit--but he is very quick to rush through 1 and 2 and checkdown--that is a lack of confidence in his ability to read the defense.  I had a former NFL TE (Deems Maye) who played QB in high school (not sure about college) tell me that the best QBs read the defense by knowing where everyone will be when the ball is to arrive--not where they are.  I think his QB at the time was Humphries.  He said that Humphries would throw the ball into coverage before the cuts etc.  because he understood DB momentum, zone areas, etc.  and he could just see it.  Said so when people say nobody was open, they are usually right because nobody should be "open" when the QB has the ball--when the ball arrives, everyone should be open.  He said Humphries was never "great" but his skills were limited--from a small school--but his ability to read a defense made him never give up on a route.

    • Mustard BBQ sauce only.
