Train and Monitor Teens’ Driving, and Establish Rules
Parents need to train their teens on a variety of road types and in different conditions (nighttime, rain, snow).The more supervised experience, the safer the teen driver. Continue to monitor and train teens during the period of greatest crash risk — the first six to 12 months after licensure.
To minimize the risks of crashes, injuries and death, talk with your teen and establish clear and reasonable driving rules that favor safety over convenience. Follow through with consequences.

GOOD Based on 129 reviews Paul Sanchez2024-03-14Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Best driving school to get your permit. The owner is the best and very kind as well. Sarah O2023-10-26Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Your instructors are terrible drivers. Some white Alamo car with a short looking man driving used the bike lane to cut in front of traffic. Pathetic. You should fire whoever was driving the white sedan on 10/26 in Minneapolis. Not a good look to have your cars being driven by people who drive like that. Irfan Khan2023-08-06Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Alamo is a great driving school. They are have a very flexible schedule and will work with you according to your timetable. Abdiwali especially is an amazing teacher! I highly recommend it. P.S. they will also pick you up from your house, so if you don’t have a reliable transportation then that’s not something to worry about.
