Driver's Ed or Driver's Education is a class or program offered by independent agencies and most high schools in the United States, where students learn how to drive and practice road safety. During Driver's Ed courses, a dual-controlled car (with pedals for both the driver and instructor in the front passenger's seat) is used. Students take Driver's Ed to supplement the knowledge from government-printed driving handbooks so that they will be prepared for the test to get their learner's permit or driver's license. Some car insurance companies also offer discounts to those students who have completed a Driver's Ed program. In some states, students taking Driver's Ed have the opportunity to get a waiver, which allows them to receive a learner's permit or driver's license without having to take their driving test. Successful completion of a driver education course is required by many state agencies before young drivers receive their driver license or learner's permit. Driver's Ed courses are now also offered through online education websites. Such websites offer an alternative to classroom courses, as some schools do not offer driver education due to decreased budgets.
