Local Driving School Shifts Gears for Student Drivers

GOOSE CREEK, S.C. – Buckle up, Goose Creek. Driver’s education in Berkeley County has taken a turn for the better.

911 Driving School, a subsidiary of The Driver Training Group, a multi-brand driver’s education brand, announced today that it has reopened under new ownership and is now offering classes for the spring.

“Teaching young people to drive well is as much art as science, as much psychology as technique,” said Macon Rudisill, local owner of 911 Driving School in Goose Creek. “Our instructors are coaches. They’re trained on youth culture and on how the young adult brain absorbs information. We teach teenagers to drive well, but more than that, we motivate them to use what they know to stay collision-free. We look forward to helping students in the Goose Creek and greater Charleston area build safe, defensive driving habits that will last a lifetime.”

With over 10 years of business operation, investment and entrepreneurial experience, Macon will oversee the 911 Driving School program as both the owner and operator along with his wife, Margaret, who has 12 years experience as a middle school science teacher. The couple also owns 911 Driving School in Mount Pleasant.

Upcoming classes will be held at the Hampton Inn at 2688 Fernwood Drive in North Charleston on Saturday, April 21 and Saturday, May 19 from 8:30 a.m. – 4:30 p.m. All driving hours will take place in Goose Creek.

All driver’s education class packages meet the South Carolina Department of Motor Vehicals requirements for teens wanting to get their licenses before the age of 17. For more information on package options or to register for a class call (843) 884-5552.

“I see this as an opportunity to invest in the safety of our community,” added Margaret. “As a business owner, it’s humbling to know that 911 Driving School will make the roads a safer place for new drivers and local residents.”

Using a relevant, research-backed curriculum developed by experts, the 911 Driving School will change the way local students learn to drive. The 911 method focuses on teaching new drivers how to drive defensively to stay-collision free through coaching. It also provides parents with opportunities to be involved in their child’s driver’s education experience and teaches them how to be more effective coaches for their new teen drivers.

911 Driving School was created to inspire, educate, engage and motivate drivers to perform safely and responsibly behind the wheel through online, classroom, and behind-the-wheel instruction. It has developed multiple programs for teen, adult, government and corporate fleet drivers that go beyond traditional driving lessons or driver’s education courses. Instructors prepare students mentally for driving on the road by helping them understand the driving environment, develop the ability to assess their risks and capabilities in a variety of different driving situations, and help them understand the limits of their vehicle.
