Volusia County Teen Driver Challenge

The Volusia Sheriff's Office in conjunction with the Florida Sheriffs Association offers a program designed to train teenage drivers to avoid deadly traffic crashes through a variety of advanced driving skills. The course, called the Teen Driving Challenge, is an 8-hour course that trains teens how to prevent crashes through defensive driving techniques and evasive maneuvers.

The course goes well beyond the basics of automobile operations, teaching young drivers life-saving skills such as the proper way to safely maneuver corners, brake during emergencies and recover from a skid.

The Teen Driving Challenge provides a mixture of classroom instruction and hands-on driver training at the Sheriff’s Office’s driving track outside Daytona International Speedway in Daytona Beach.

There is no charge for the course and the student must have their regular Class E driver's license. Participants must provide their own car.
