Teen Driver Education Courses
Teens may begin classroom driver education as young as age 15 years and 9 months, but may not begin driving until they are 16 years of age and have obtained a learner's permit. The Registry of Motor Vehicles requires the driver education course be completed within a two year period. All students who sign up will create an online account that allows you to check the status of your account, make payments, and schedule on-road driving lessons and sign up for appointment reminders! You have to have a valid learner's permit on your person to do all on-road driving lessons with MDA as well as driving lessons from family. The ensure quality and safety for all of our in car instruction, we have cameras recording inside and outside of all of our vehicles and audio as well.
A 2-hour parent class must be completed before students can schedule their on-road driving lessons.
For teens under the age of 18 to be eligible for a road test, they must complete a full driver education course and hold a learner's permit for six months. All your fees must be paid in full here at Middlesex Driving Academy and the RMV. Once all these requirements have been met, you can schedule a road test to be taken here at our main office. To meet the public's demand, we offer these every other week.
Remember to practice, practice, practice driving with your son and or daughter. Please understand, we ask you do a minimum of 10 hours of driving on the main roads prior to scheduling your first driving or observing lesson. The number one reason a student passes the Road Test on the first attempt is that they did a minimum of 40 hours (many did more) of driving at home! Those students who do very little at home , it may cause them to take the Road Test several times before getting a "pass" from the RMV Road Examiner! Because of this reason and others, we require our students to have at least ten hours of driving before scheduling driving lessons with MDA. If this requirement is not met, we will cancel all lessons even last minute if necessary!
Please be advised that we adhere to a strict no refund policy. Thank you.

Parent Class (Free for Members)
This class must be completed before your teen can start their in-car driving lessons. The cost of the parent class is included in all our packages. A fee for parent class is for parents of a student attending class at a different driving school.
The Massachusetts Registry of Motor Vehicles mandates that parents/guardians attend a special two-hour class for teens under the age of 18 trying to obtain their license. This class will provide insight into what your teenager is learning in drivers education and explain the current laws that will most affect you and your child.
The RMV requires your teen to complete a minimum of 40 hours of behind-the-wheel experience under your supervision. This class will provide you with strategies to use when taking your teen out driving as well as tips on how to be a positive role model during driving lessons. We want to help make this time together more enjoyable and less stressful for both of you!
After you have completed the class, you will be issued a certificate that is valid for five years. If you have another teenager(s) who will be attending drivers education before your certificate expires, you will not have to retake the class.
