Many teens choose to begin Driver’s Education during their
summer break, when they don’t have to worry about school schedules or
homework.
The Michigan Department of
State certifies driver education providers and instructors to teach driver
education in Michigan. Programs are
offered by some public school districts, as well as private driving
schools.
The links below provide
listings of certified Michigan driver education providers, instructors and
classrooms:

Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia Research Institute.
May is Motorcycle Safety Awareness Month and Secretary of State Ruth Johnson reminds all drivers in
Michigan who wish to legally operate a motorcycle that they must have a motorcycle
endorsement.
Motorcyclists under
18 years of age with a Michigan driver’s license are also required to take a
motorcycle safety course. A first
offense for riding unendorsed is punishable by a $500 fine and/or up to 90 days
in jail.
For more information, including
a list of motorcycle training class sponsors by county visit the Michigan
Rider Education Program page.
