Enrolling in Driving School · 报名驾校

basic
You

Hi, I just moved to the US and I need to learn to drive. I have never driven before. Can you help?

你好,我刚搬到美国,需要学开车。我以前从来没开过车。你能帮我吗?

Of course! We have a beginner package that includes thirty hours of classroom instruction for the written test and ten hours of behind-the-wheel training. It is designed for people with zero experience.

当然!我们有初学者套餐,包括三十小时的笔试课堂教学和十小时的实车训练。专为零经验的人设计。

You

How much does the beginner package cost? And how long does the whole process take?

初学者套餐多少钱?整个过程需要多长时间?

The package is five hundred ninety-nine dollars. Most students complete it in eight to ten weeks. After that, you take the DMV driving test. We can even let you use our car for the test.

套餐五百九十九美元。大多数学生在八到十周内完成。之后你去DMV参加路考。我们甚至可以让你用我们的车去考试。

You

That is helpful. Do I need to get a learner's permit first? I do not know the process here.

这很有帮助。我需要先拿学习许可证吗?我不了解这里的流程。

Yes, you need a learner's permit from the DMV before you can start driving lessons. You take a written test on traffic rules. Our classroom course prepares you for that. Many of our students pass on the first try.

是的,在开始驾驶课之前你需要从DMV拿到学习许可证。你参加一个交通规则的笔试。我们的课堂课程为你准备考试。我们很多学生一次就通过了。

💡 In the US, you must first pass a written test to get a learner's permit before you can practice driving on the road with an instructor.

On-Road Practice · 路上练习

You

I am really nervous about driving on the highway. Can we practice that today?

我对在高速公路上开车真的很紧张。我们今天可以练习吗?

Let us start on a quieter stretch of highway first. The key is merging — you need to match the speed of traffic before entering. I will guide you through every step. Remember, I have a brake on my side too.

我们先在安静的高速路段开始。关键是汇入——你需要在进入前匹配车流速度。我会指导你每一步。记住,我这边也有刹车。

You

What if I need to change lanes and there is a car in my blind spot?

如果我需要变道但盲区有车怎么办?

Always check your mirrors first, then do a quick shoulder check before changing lanes. If there is a car there, maintain your speed and wait for a gap. Never force a lane change — patience is safer than speed.

总是先看后视镜,然后在变道前快速转头检查。如果有车,保持速度等待空隙。永远不要强行变道——耐心比速度更安全。

You

That makes sense. Am I ready for the driving test, or do I need more practice?

有道理。我准备好路考了吗,还是需要更多练习?

You have improved a lot. I would say one or two more sessions focused on parallel parking and three-point turns, and you will be ready. Those are the two things most people fail on.

你进步很大。我觉得再来一到两次专注于侧方停车和三点掉头的课,你就准备好了。这两个是大多数人失败的原因。
