What Driving Courses Does Bob Shropshire Sons Offer?

Bob Shropshire Sons offers three distinct course types to serve nearly every driver situation in Cincinnati:

  • Teen Driver Education: Ohio requires teens aged 15.5 to 17 to complete 24 hours of classroom instruction and 8 hours of behind-the-wheel training before they can apply for a probationary license. Bob Shropshire Sons provides state-approved classroom and in-car instruction, preparing young drivers to navigate downtown Cincinnati traffic, I-71 on-ramps, and residential streets in neighborhoods like Norwood, Oakley, and Westwood. 
  • Adult Lessons and Refresher Courses: Whether you are returning after years away from the wheel or building confidence for the first time as an adult, patient one-on-one instruction can help. Sessions may cover parallel parking near Over-the-Rhine, merging onto I-75, and handling Reading Road during peak hours.
  • Adult Abbreviated and Remedial Courses: Ohio law requires adults who fail the BMV road skills test to complete an Abbreviated Adult Driver Training Course before retesting. Bob Shropshire Sons offers a one-day, 8-hour remedial course for $95 (cash only), available Monday through Saturday (except the last Saturday of the month). This course is also available to drivers with suspended licenses or those ordered by a court to complete driver improvement training.
