I have three sons that have used the product for every step of the way to successfully receive their drivers license the first time.  I appreciated the friendly service anytime I needed it.  This process was exactly that “A Process”.  I recently spoke to a lady that works at our local DPS office and told her how much detail goes into students acquiring their license now-a-day.  It’s not like it was 30 years ago.  Parents and instructors have to be very hands on.  My boys would tell me their friends would say that it does not cost anything for paperwork or course work for parent taught.  So I asked this to the DPS lady, and she said no, you have to have a certificate.  So I was very glad that I had required my boys to use the Virtual Drive program.
