We get asked about this a lot, and I'm sorry to say that we don't teach stunt driving at Burgess Driving School. No flaming rings. No dramatic jumps, no two wheel driving through narrow streets. No high-speed chases through downtown Tallahassee. (The traffic on Tennessee Street is exciting enough, thank you very much.)
What we do teach is something even better: how to be a confident, capable, and safe driver. And while that might not look as flashy as a muscle car jumping through flames, it's a whole lot more useful in your daily life.
Real Life vs. The Movies
In the movies, every car chase ends with a perfectly executed drift into a parking space. In real life, we'll teach you how to actually parallel park without scratching your neighbor's bumper. Less dramatic? Sure. More practical? Absolutely.
We specialize in helping adult learners master the road – whether you're a college student who's been relying on the FSU bus system, someone who learned to drive in another country, or just finally ready to get your license. Our instructors make learning fun (just not action-movie fun) while building your skills and confidence.
What We Actually Teach (No Pyrotechnics Required)
How to smoothly navigate Tallahassee traffic (without any car chases)
Proper turning techniques (no drifting allowed)
Safe parking methods (no need for handbrake turns)
Defensive driving (way better than offensive driving)
And yes, even parallel parking (at normal speeds, right side up)
Our Guarantee (More Reliable Than Movie Stunts)
Our Adult Driver Guaranteed Program includes six one-hour lessons and our triple-try guarantee. If you don't pass your road test the first time, you get two free additional lessons. Don't pass the second time? Two more free lessons. And if you still don't succeed after three attempts, you'll receive a partial refund.
For those just needing practice before the test, our Practice Test and Car Rental service lets you rehearse the actual road test route and use our car for the official test – all for $195. We even provide transportation to and from the DMV.
The Real Excitement
Here's the thing: while we can't promise you'll jump any cars through rings of fire, we can promise something better – the excitement of finally getting your license, the freedom to drive yourself wherever you need to go, and the confidence to handle any normal driving situation safely and skillfully.
Because in the end, the real thrill isn't in the stunts – it's in the independence that comes with being a capable, confident driver.
