Toyota Driving Expectations is a free four-hour driver’s education program that gets teens behind the wheel to experience real dangers in a safe setting, so they can learn how to avoid and deal with similar situations on the road.

Pro drivers ride with participants, guiding them through several different hands-on driving and classroom sessions.
