1. The student must complete all 6 hours of BTW training with a State of Hawaii certified BTW instructor.
2. A notarized affidavit stating of practice driving hours must be submitted to the teen's behind-the-wheel instructor.   Go to Helpful Links & Documents Page and open the Accurate Driving - Driving Log and Affidavit.

If you lose a certificate you need to contact the instructor who issued it originally.  There may be a fee for the replacement.  Once a certificate is issued to you, keep it with other important documents such as birth certificate and social security card.  The most common way certificates get lost is when they are held on to by the teen driver.  The certificate will not be needed until the road test date.

Students need to have a current Hawaii Instruction Permit.  Students will receive an email referral for the BTW lessons.  The emails will be sent sometime after session 10.  Please be patient, it may take as long as 2 weeks after session 12 to receive your referral.  Arrangements will be made with the BTW instructor regarding dates, times and locations for the lessons.  The BTW lessons cannot be completed in less than 6 weeks and each lesson cannot be longer than 1.5 hours.

All our BTW instructors conduct BTW lessons starting in the Kahala area.  You will need to meet the instructor at a predetermined location.  We do not provide pick-up and drop-off service.

BTW Rules:

• No sandals, flip-flops, tap shoes, cleats or bedroom slippers during the course. Sneakers/tennis shoes or closed toe shoes are the preferred footwear.  It is up to the instructor if you will be allowed to drive barefoot.
• No short skirts, dresses, short shorts, or see-through tights. Blue jeans, or long shorts are the preferred dress for both male and female students. 
•  No tanks tops, tube tops, revealing thin strapped, spaghetti straps see-through or midriff tops.

BTW Rules Continued:

• Students are required to practice to proficiency what is covered in a lesson.  In a following lesson, if the student has not progressed the lesson may be rescheduled to allow more practice time.
• Do not make a road test appointment until consulting with the BTW instructor.

To qualify to take the road test, the teen:

1. Must be at least sixteen (16) years old, but under the age of eighteen (18); 
2. Holds an instructional permit and has held that permit for at least 180 days and there is no pending violation that might result in a suspension or revocation of that person’s instructional permit.  
3. Has Satisfactorily completesd a State certified driver’s education course and possesses the classroom (yellow) and behind-the-wheel (blue) certificates of completion.    

Make arrangements with your BTW instructor.  This is not included as part of your training.  Expect to pay a fee.  The fee is determined by the BTW instructor.

The BTW lessons must be started before the teen's 18th birthday.  On their 18th birthday they have moved out of the Teen category for driver licensing into the Adult category.  On their 18th birthday the BTW lessons expire, and no refund will be issued.

Adult Behind-The-Wheel lessons cost $60.00 per hour. We require a prepayment of $376.96. including GE Tax. This amount prepays for 6 (six) hours of lessons. The Average Adult requires about 1/2 hour of lessons per year of age to reach a basic ability level. At this level the student should be able to pass the Road Test. For example if the student is 20 years old, they would require 10 hours of lessons. A  40-year-old   student would require 20 hours of lessons.   These are just averages.

A service fee of $25 will be charged on any check not honored for any reason. 

Refunds are only issued if the student dies or becomes disabled and cannot proceed with driver education.

Accurate Driving retains the right to refuse service.
