About Us

Who We Are
We have been teaching adults and teenagers to drive safely since 1995 throughout the Charlotte area. At Helms Driving School, our number-one objective is to ensure that our students develop and maintain safe practices on the road as well as learn the art of defensive driving. The professional and licensed instructors at our facility feel that it is their obligation to provide a level of service that is in accordance to safety rules and regulations as provided by the NC DMV. Here at Helms Driving School, we know that there is no substitute for classroom instruction with a knowledgeable instructor and real, behind-the-wheel training can only be achieved by actually getting behind the wheel. We want you to feel at ease in knowing that you are working with the best team of professionals in the industry.
