In the USA, my experience, that although driver education is generally required in high school, it covers only the law and a minimal actually driving. Even heard one instructor that parked the car in a clear area so the student wouldn't have to back up. There is now appearing traveling road shows of more rigorous training, but the number of participants is few, and the time very limited, more a demonstration of a few characteristics. If one has the money and time, there is available at auto race tracks, advanced road driving classes that last a full day or two. This is a toned down version of race car driving school. Locally it's at the Mid Ohio Race course. Wish the granddaughter would be able to attend.
