When it comes to learning how to drive, it's essential to choose a driving school that meets your specific needs and provides comprehensive training. While there may be plenty of driving schools near you, not all programs offer the same level of quality or expertise. At ShiftAbove2, we pride ourselves on offering a program that sets us "above" the rest. Here’s what makes us stand out!
A Program That Goes Beyond Driver’s Education
Our program is designed to transcend traditional driver’s education and outshine other behind-the-wheel courses. We focus on the importance of multitasking while driving and share essential techniques that transform students into confident and capable drivers.

We provide crucial insights into "the dynamics of a vehicle" and explain how this knowledge plays a pivotal role in maintaining control under various driving conditions. Our goal is to equip students with the understanding necessary to not just drive a vehicle but to control it with confidence.
Hands-On Experience and Essential Tools
Our curriculum is rich with hands-on experiences that empower students to become safer and smarter drivers. The program includes vital training on:

Comprehensive Learning Objectives
Our Road Test Prep will provide detailed information and methods which work. Students are prepared for the center they are scheduled to test at. Many students have said this class is helpful in giving them peace of mind towards calming the nerves and sharpening their skills & judgment going into the road test.
This program's design is to identify the student's current skill level for the U.S. driving environment as well as explain and show the details of defensive driving techniques.
During the training, you will receive instruction on:

This will help you reduce your chances of getting traffic violations or being involved in an accident by learning to drive more skillfully, more safely and defensively.
Driving in the United States after coming from another country can be challenging at best. You may not be accustomed to driving on the right, with the steering wheel on the left. Not only do you need to drive on the right, but also get used to controlling and operating the car with opposite hands (The foot pedals however remain the same as with right-hand drive cars) Around 66% of the world's people live in a country where they drive on the right with only 34% driving on the left.
The program is designed for drivers from outside the United States who want to learn how to drive on America's streets and highways. You may face a variety of driving and traffic situations and weather conditions you have never experienced before. This programs aim is to explain and show the details of defensive driving techniques and improve certain driving skills and understanding of US rules of the road vs. abroad. You will learn key elements to be aware of when driving in N.J. and be provided advice to help ensure your driving is as safe as possible for not only yourself, but other road users.
Night driving involves more concentration, visual awareness and the ability to identify different hazards and make adjustments earlier than in daylight situations. Road authorities agree that night driving presents unique challenges, increased risks and numerous deaths and injuries.
This program is aimed at either the newer drivers that are ready to test their skill within a visually challenged environment or those individuals who are uncomfortable driving at night. The distance a driver can see is shortened and so hazards can often seem to appear out of nowhere. It also takes time for the eyes to adjust to the darkness after being in a lit building or after driving on a well-lit road.
Navigating the features of new and used cars can be overwhelming, especially with advanced driver assistance and anti-collision technologies. Our orientation program is designed to help you fully understand these systems, ensuring you feel confident and safe behind the wheel.
