Safety Comes First

Since 2007, Bill’s Defensive Driving School has set the standard for Driving Schools in the San Francisco Bay Area assisting thousands of people to not only pass the DMV test, but to exceed that standard. Our goal is to teach defensive driving to allow new drivers to avoid accidents. We are proud of our success rate in assisting students to pass their DMV tests, and become safe drivers.

N

Larger and Safer Cars: We are one of the only driving schools that exceeds state requirements by equipping our cars with both an instructor-side brake and gas pedal. (Most instructor cars only have the brake pedal.)

N

Private Lessons Only: All lessons are private and one-on-one, allowing our Instructors to provide full attention to our students.

N

Come Join Your Student: We encourage parents or whomever the student will be practicing with to also ride along on all lessons so that our Certified Driving Instructors can suggest specific things to practice with the student in between lessons.

Top Rated: We’re proud of our track record of excellence! Bill’s Defensive Driving School holds a 4.8/5 star rating with Google.

N

Fully Licensed and Insured: We are licensed through the Department of Motor Vehicles and we carry insurance on all of our vehicles and keep them properly maintained.

We Are Open 7 Days A Week

Passing your driving test is one of life’s joyous milestones.  It’s a right of passage and we love being a part of you and your teen’s success. But the roads in the Bay Area are crowded and dangerous. That’s why our goal is to build the skills not just to pass the DMV test, but to become a defensive driver with the tools to avoid accidents.
