Frequently Asked Question’s - Below are answers to common questions about the program.

How long is the AMP Street Smarts Teen Driving Program?
This is a one-day class. (8:30 am to 4:00 pm)

How often do you hold the Teen Driving School?

Yearly, one Saturday per month

What is the curriculum for the program?

·       Driving Exercises

In a controlled environment, teens get behind the wheel of a new BMW 3 Series and experience a wide range of driving conditions. AMP driving instructors are in the vehicle with the teens giving immediate feedback on safety precautions and vehicle handling corrections as students respond to real-world scenarios.

·       Skid Control

We will use our cutting edge skid pad to teach them skid control.

·    “Ice Hill”

We will use our first of its kind “Ice Hill” to demonstrate real world, reactionary scenarios where by remote control we can “pop” up water jets for them to avoid on a polished slick surface; similar to that of a car, child or object, “springing” up before you.

·       Car Control

Learning vehicle dynamics help drivers safely maintain control of their car at all times and experience the importance of patience in the process of managing the load transfer of the vehicle.

·       Accident Avoidance

Maneuvering vehicles through a series of courses simulating real-life road conditions, students learn what best to do in the event of an unexpected hazard.

·       Braking

Teens learn effective ways to handle unexpected braking and panic stops before an accident occurs.

·       Target Fixation

AMP driving instructors teach students to focus on where the vehicle needs to be rather than on the object they are trying to avoid.
