AAA Western and Central New York is pleased to announce the Licensed to Learn (LTL) Program is returning to classroom instruction beginning in May. This will mark the first time in three years the program is being offered in-person.

The LTL Program includes:

•    25 hours of driver education instruction, including 5-hour course
•    In-car training conducted one-on-one with a state-licensed AAA driving instructor
•    10 driving lessons, including road test
•    5-hour pre-licensing course certificate (MV-278)
•    FREE 1-year AAA Basic® Membership

Classroom instruction will take place in the AAA Liverpool location, 7485 Henry Clay Boulevard, on Wednesday nights from 6:00-9:00 p.m. starting May 3, 2023. Those interested in the course are encouraged to register as soon as possible.

“We are happy to be able to offer the LTL Program with classroom instruction once again,” said AAA Western and Central New York Manager of Driver Training Mike Formanowicz. “That human interaction is so important. Students will be able to interact with a professional instructor, ask questions, and get the answers they need to be successful as they learn to drive.”

Teenage LTL drivers ages 16 and 17 have a 62% lower crash rate in New York State. All AAA Driver Training instructors are New York State DMV-certified and receive 33% more training than is mandated to assure the quality and effectiveness of instruction.

Online instruction will continue to be offered for the LTL Program. To learn more about in-person and online options visit https://westerncentralny.aaa.com/automotive/driver-training/licensed-to-learn.html or call (800) 836-2582.
