(This is a 3 hour hands-on course)
B.R.A.K.E.S Teen Pro-Active Driving School is a three-hour program that partners your teen with professional driving instructors to teach the skills of defensive driving in a controlled, hands-on environment.
This life-saving experience is fun for your teen and they will leave with a great level of confidence. The bonus is that parents are offered a chance to get behind the wheel and experience some of the same courses as the teens.
DEPOSIT: Carefully read the following information to make sure you understand our policy.
Classes are free to all, but we require a $99 credit card deposit to secure your reservation.
At the completion of the class, you have two options:
1) You can leave your deposit as a donation. This allows us to continue our mission of saving lives.
A tax donation letter will be emailed to you the following week.
2) Request a Refund. This must be handled on site at the registration table, at the end of class.
Your card will be refunded by the Tuesday after your weekend class.
Rescheduling/Cancellation Policy
If you are rescheduling or canceling a class we must be notified BY EMAIL (register@putonthebrakes.org) BY 12:00 NOON Eastern Time, on the Tuesday before your Saturday or Sunday class, otherwise your deposit will be donated to B.R.A.K.E.S. and a Tax Donation letter will be emailed to you.
Note: You are allowed to reschedule (1) time (including within your scheduled weekend or another weekend), otherwise you will have to go back on the waitlist.
No Shows
No Shows waste valuable charity resources, including the cost of vehicles, professional instructors, and volunteers that B.R.A.K.E.S. assembles for each program to ensure that the experience will exceed all expectations. Worse, NO SHOWS deprive other teens and parents that are waiting for the opportunity to attend the B.R.A.K.E.S. driving experience. If, however, you do not show up for the class, your $99 will be charged.
B.R.A.K.E.S. is a 501(c)3 charity organization. Our mission is to prevent injuries and save lives by training and educating teenage drivers and their parents. 86% of all donated funds go directly to the B.R.A.K.E.S. driving program. Just 8% of funds are used for administration and 6% for fundraising.

If classes are FULL, click the "Add to Waitlist" button and you will be notified via email for any opening for that weekend session. If you do not make it into the event for that weekend, please register for the next class when it opens. The waitlist does not carry over from previous classes.
