This Iowa Parent-Taught Driver Education (PTDE) course provides your parent or legal guardian the opportunity to become your driver education instructor. PTDE requires both online classroom instruction and behind-the-wheel driver training.
Safe2Drive's PTDE course is approved by the Iowa Department of Transportation (DOT), and allows a parent or legal guardian to become an instructor for their teen's driver education. PTDE requires both online classroom instruction and behind-the-wheel driver training.
It is highly recommended that you double check the requirements and eligibility for both the student and the teaching parent(s) before the teen starts the course. Not every family member may meet the requirements to qualify for the parent-taught program.
You can check your driving to ensure you meet these requirements.
If you have any questions about eligibility you can inquire by emailing ParentTaught.DE@iowadot.us.
