Lakeland sits right along the I-4 corridor between Tampa and Orlando, where US-98, Kathleen Road, and the Polk Parkway stay busy and the traffic keeps growing. Since 1978, our certified instructors — headquartered in Tampa — have helped nervous teens become calm, capable drivers who can handle real traffic, sudden summer rain, and the roads around Polk County. Our instructors pick students up from home or school and drop them off at home — anywhere in Lakeland and across Polk County. Every lesson happens in a car with a passenger-side brake and a patient, certified instructor who knows these streets well.
