Driving School in El Mirage, AZ

El Mirage is a small city between Surprise, Sun City and the Agua Fria River, so lessons here mix quiet neighborhood streets with busy roads on every side.

We start on residential streets, then move to El Mirage Road, Thunderbird Road, Dysart Road and Grand Avenue. There's time in each 2.5-hour lesson to work on whatever makes you nervous, not just drive around the block.

City-specific driving tip

Grand Avenue and the railroad cut along the edge of El Mirage, and several cross streets have rail crossings close to the signal. Leave room so you never end up stopped on the tracks. On Thunderbird and El Mirage Road, school traffic stacks up around opening and closing times, so allow extra following distance and watch for students crossing.
