A Bay Driving School represents the premier driving instruction in Northern California. We’ve taught students from the age of15 ½ to over 80 years old, and our team is ready to go for you. Every instructor is DMV licensed, patient, and of course professional.

Why We’re Different

We differ from other schools in that we specialize in both driver’s education and advanced behind-the-wheel driver’s training. When students train with us, they learn not only the essentials of safe driving, but also advanced defensive driving techniques such as hazard detection, risk perception, precise vehicle control, space management, and driver attitude. Not only that, but on our students last lesson, we examine them based on the actual DMV test requirements. Thus, our practice test gives you the best preparation possible for the DMV exam.

We also have the best value! In comparison to our competitors, nearly all our packages are either the same or a lower price. In wanting you to have the best, we provide the highest service at the most affordable cost. For example, we offer free pick-up and drop-off services, as well as flexible scheduling.

What Others Have Said

We’ve been serving Northern California for over 15 years, and invite you to consider what our students say about us:

“I was very nervous for my first behind the wheel lesson, I had never been behind the wheel of a car before. My instructor made me feel very comfortable and by the end of the lesson I was confident that I could drive with my parents and not be scared. I would recommend A Bay Driving School to anyone that needs behind the wheel training.” –Jimmy Mann, July 2012.

“I would recommend A Bay Driving School. Helps you alot, and affordable! They were able to get me in on a tight schedule so that I could get my license earlier than

I planned! Thanks A Bay Driving School” –Kirsti Gianelli, June 2012.

” A Bay Driving School, you are fantastic! I didn’t have any clue about driving when I started driving. To tell you the truth, my experience before that was a few times of moving the car in a parking lot. Now I drive everywhere without being accompanied with my parents. No accident and tickets due to the excellent training A Bay Driving School gave me. Please keep up the good work! I will tell all my fiends to come to you. I promise! Victoria” –Victoria Garcia, June 2012.

“I am so glad that I chose A Bay Driving School to train me to get my driver’s license. They were extremely friendly, professional, and I just loved the way all the instructors taught- with patience. I had an extremely good time with them and learned too many things to even say. I would recommend this company in a heartbeat and would just like to point out that not only were they affordable, but they taught me the necessary skills to get on the road and be a good and a safe driver. Thank you soooo much A Bay Driving School!” –A Google User, 2009.
