* In North Carolina we all pay taxes. Part of that tax money goes to pay for driver education. When families come to Farriss Driving School they must pay again. For years we at Farriss Driving School and many commercial driver education schools have lobbied the state to offer vouchers to each child who is of age to take driver education. Then, that child and his or her family could choose where they would like to take driver education. Those that choose a commercial school like ours would not have to pay again. We at Farriss Driving School are just one voice. Please contact your local and state leaders about the voucher system for driver education in North Carolina. Thank you and we appriciate your business.
* Farriss Driving School holds the right to cancel any class at any time. Deposit pay for cancelled classed will be moved to another class or refunded.
