Frequently Asked Questions

Can I take my knowledge test and drive test at your Kent office?
Yes. The Washington DOL lists us as a testing location for both the knowledge test and the drive test, at 23231 Pacific Highway South. What the drive test checks →
When are you open?
Every day from 8 AM to 8 PM. Call (206) 551-9748, or enroll online and book your lessons from the student portal at any time.
Can I get to you without a car?
Yes. We're a few minutes' walk from Kent Des Moines Station on the 1 Line, and RapidRide A Line buses run on Pacific Highway South.
Do you help in other languages?
The DOL lists our Kent location with language support in Arabic, Farsi, Pashto, Russian and Somali, as well as English. Not every language is available for every course, so ask when you call.
What does my teen need for a Washington license?
A learner permit held for at least 6 months, an approved driver training course, 50 hours of supervised driving (10 at night), and passing the knowledge and drive tests at 16 or older. From November 1, 2026, first-time drivers under 25 also pass a free online work zone and first responder course. A parent's guide to the rules →
I'm 18 or older. Do I need driver's ed?
Not today: at 18 or older you can take both tests without a course or a learner permit. From January 1, 2027, a first-time applicant who is 18 must complete a driver training course, and the age band grows each year after. Adult lessons in Kent →
