This driving school offers lessons to kids as young as four, thanks to a cleverly thought-out course.
Driving is every young car enthusiast’s dream, but many have to wait until their late teenage years to get the chance to sit behind the wheel.
But, waiting for that all-important birthday could be a thing of the past, thanks to this program.
Even kids in kindergarten could find themselves in the driver’s seat, preparing to take to the road.

Learning to drive a car is the peak of any gearhead’s teen years, with the legal age for learning and the vehicles offered varying from country to country.
For example, in Monaco, driving lessons in a Porsche 911 are on offer for both experienced and new drivers.
Plus, if that wasn’t fancy enough, in Qatar, a driving school offers driving lessons in $300k Rolls-Royce Ghosts for millionaires who don’t want ‘regular’ cars.
But across the pond in the UK, a driving school is taking things to a whole new level.
Young Driver UK offers young people the chance to get behind the wheel in a closely monitored and controlled environment.
In fact, children as young as four are even able to have a go, so kindergartners could be in luck.
It’s all down to an experience called ‘Firefly’ that caters for four to nine-year-olds.
“The Firefly Sport is a real car, but in miniature!
“Make no mistake, this fully-electric car isn’t a toy.
“The sporty little two-seater drives and handles just like a proper car. Younger children love driving the Firefly Sport, having fun and learning some of the basics of driving as they go,” stated Young Driver UK.
And, the best part? 15 minutes of Firefly only costs around $34.
The price includes kids being taught about ‘the basics of steering, driving, junctions and even reversing’ and the opportunity for an additional kid or adult to jump in too.
Plus, there’s even a ‘remote cut-off that parents can use’.
The school caters for young people up to the age of 17, so all the kids in the family can get in on all the speedy action.
You can check out the driving experience here.
Who knows, you might have a little Stig or Lando Norris in the making.
