TC road testing Update!!!

Northwest Education Services has experienced a family emergency. The road tester's husband needs open heart surgery and she can't risk infection for the foreseeable future while she cares for him. They are not offering road tests unless they can find a replacement or she can come back post emergency surgery. She feels terrible needing to cancel, but I've assured her that family is so much more important!!

Please seek alternative road testers:
Cruz Control Driver Testing
Roadmaster in TC and Benzie
Premier Driving Academy in Manistee
Char-Em ISD in Charlevoix

You can view a complete list by county on the Michigan Secretary of State website as well.

Happy Labor Day!!

As promised, another month of classes is open. February segment 1 and segment 2 are available. First Monday of every month I will open the next month. I don't have a set time since I'm neurospicy and don't need rules like that. haha.

The website walks you though the registration process depending on the class you need.

Segment 1 student has to be 14 years and 8 months old by the first day of class.

Segment 2 student has to have held the level 1 license from SOS for at least 3 months and logged at least 30 of their 50 total hours. (2 of their 10 nighttime as well)

If you have any issues, email is always the best way to reach me.

A few weeks ago Mark and I, with no communication about it, both made our students parallel park with the same Aston Martin in downtown TC every time we went by it. For my girl, I made her take a photo to brag herself up. This was only her second attempt using a real car too. One might say she did better than the other car since she's at least in one spot. The road test will be cake for her.

I opened January segment 1 and 2 courses up for registration.

I'm going to start opening a new month on the first Monday of every month. I will still announce the new courses here when I open them. February will open on Labor Day.

Sandy’s Driving School LLC does something similar and we discussed the logistics of that and I think I agree that it's easier for people to plan if I don't just dump 4-5 months at a time. Keep an eye out for random openings if you want sooner. Some folks will swap to a newly opened month and leave openings.

I don't do waitlists and the website is the best reflection of our services and availability. I don't keep secret spots aside for lucky caller number 5. haha.

Always learning and willing to keep trying new things. :)

**Update. Due to the massive increase in fuel costs, which is the life blood of our business, we did need to increase the course fees. The website has been updated, but may take a bit to refresh for you. So sorry for the confusion.**

This is DEVASTATING. Wilder was a great kid. Thoughts and all of the prayers to his MANY friends and family. My heart hurts so much this morning. 💔

View Wilder William Seeburger's obituary, find service dates, and sign the guestbook.

More information than I had posted previously. It's FREE! And the instructor has a close to the heart reason as to why he cares. ❤️❤️

August is Back to School Month.
As students return to the classrooms in the coming weeks, the OHSP urges drivers to watch for school buses that are stopped to pick up or drop off students. In Michigan, drivers must stop at least 20 feet away from a school bus when its red lights are flashing. Drivers who pass stopped school buses may be charged with civil infractions carrying a fine up to $500. Penalties are much more severe for drivers who pass a stopped school bus and cause an injury or death. For more information, visit www.Michigan.gov/SchoolBusSafety.
