Advantages of a Designated Driving School

Musashisakai Driving School is a Public Safety Commission-designated driving school. Training and driving skill exams can be completed at the school where you practice, so you can take your exams in a familiar environment.

After graduation, you only need to take the written test at a driver’s license center to obtain your license. This makes the process more efficient and reassuring, especially for first-time drivers.
