Policies

These policies apply to driver training services offered by Cantor’s Driving School. By using our services, you are accepting these terms and conditions. Please read our policies.

Package Payment Policy: All packages require full payment for the entire package before scheduling. You can register, pay and schedule online, or call our office (310-910-9070) during office hours to pay, register and schedule over the phone if you prefer.

Refund Policy: If a refund is requested after lessons or packages are purchased, there is a $25 administrative fee to process the refund. No refunds are issued after one year from date of purchase.

Lessons Cancellation: 48 hours notice is required to cancel a driving lesson without penalty. Driving lessons are conducted in rain/inclement weather. If you cancel with less than 48 hours notice for any reason, including weather, there will be a $90 charge for rescheduling. NO Exceptions.

Lateness Policy: Instructors wait for 15 minutes after the lesson is scheduled to start. If you arrive late, the lesson still ends at the scheduled stop time. If you are not there within that 15 minutes, you are a no-show. NO Exceptions.

No-Show Policy: If you are a no-show for a lesson, there will be a $150 charge for rescheduling, or the lesson is forfeited. NO Exceptions.

Permit/License Requirements: If you do not have a valid California Minor’s (Learner’s) Permit, Driver’s License or International License in your possession at the time of the lesson, the lesson cannot be given. There will be a $150 charge for the lesson to be rescheduled. NO Exceptions.

Please Note: Late cancellations or lessons cancelled due to no-show or no permit/license result in a loss of income to instructors and our driving school that cannot be recovered otherwise.

Certificate of Completion: After 3 lessons/6 hours of behind-the-wheel driving lessons are completed, Cantor’s Driving School will issue a Certificate of Completion (also called the Golden Ticket) that all 15½ – 17½ teenagers need to provide to the DMV when taking the road test. If the certificate is lost and has to be replaced, there is a $65 fee for the replacement.

Prices: Prices are effective at the time of purchase. Prices are subject to change without notice.

Driver’s Day-of-Test Service Notes

• Available Monday to Friday ONLY.
• The length of this service is typically about 2 ½ to 3 hours. No late afternoon tests.
• Includes pick up and drop off service.
• This service is ONLY offered to students that have completed a minimum of 6 hours of behind the wheel training lessons with Cantor’s Driving School.
• Scheduling the driver’s license road test at the California Department of Motor Vehichles (DMV) is currently booking out about 4-6 weeks. This is a California DMV delay, not Cantor’s Driving School.

Driver Training Lessons

When a student driver between the ages of 15½ and 17½ gets the provisional minor’s permit, he/she must take one 2 hour driving lesson with a California DMV-certified driving school such as Cantor’s Driving School before doing any other behind-the-wheel practice driving. When that first driving lesson is completed, the Cantor’s Driving School instructor will sign and validate that permit. At that point, the student driver can practice driving with an adult.

An additional 4 hours of driving lessons with a California DMV-certified driving school is also required. When a total of 6 hours of driving lessons are completed, Cantor’s Driving School will complete the California DMV form, the Certificate of Completion of Driver Training, that is taken to the DMV for the driver’s license test.

Note: If you are at least 17½ years old, you may obtain a permit without completing driver education or driver training. However, you cannot get a driver’s license before you are 18 years old.

Cantor’s Driving School offers private, one-on-one, on-the-road driving lessons 7 days a week, day and evening hours. Door-to-door service is provided – we pick you up and we drop you off at your home, work or school.

• Defensive driving techniques taught
• Freeway, city and traffic driving practice
