Our goal is to equip our students with the best defensive driving
techniques possible. We hire instructors who have had personal
experience in observing the consequences of placing a drivers license in
the hands of an over-confident, under-experienced teenager. While we
are unable to control what the student does when he completes our
course, we do control the time in our program and parents can rest
assured we do not take lightly the task of using that time wisely!

Today is a milestone for Auto-Safe. We started a new business called Auto-Safe Properties LLC and acquired the property where we have been leasing from Chaplain Ministries. We are so thankful for the opportunity to lease from the chaplains and the relationship we have developed with them. Acquiring the property was not in our plans, but we are thankful for the opportunity and how will open up more opportunities for Auto-Safe in the future.
Auto-Safe Driving School was honored at the annual South Carolina Driver and Traffic Safety Education Association with the award Commercial School of the Year. This award is confirmed on one Private Driving School in the state of South Carolina.
We at Auto-Safe are very proud to receive this award. No one person made it possible for Auto-Safe to win this award, but Auto-Safe's success is because of our great staff of instructors and office staff who go the extra mile every day and put safety first.
Our owner Jim Collins won the award at the November conference of the South Carolina Driver and Traffic Safety Education Association. This is a great honor and one well deserved! Below is a picture of the only other two that have received this award in association history.
