Shansavto — your chance

Since the beginning of the 20th century, the automobile has been perceived as an inseparable part of people’s lives. A passenger car is an indispensable helper in everyday matters, meant to shoulder burdens and inconveniences. Given the pace of modern society, having your own vehicle is not a luxury but a necessity that affects many aspects of our lives. Today, even when looking for a job, having a driving license is an unquestionable plus on your resume.

However, acquiring a passenger car is only the tip of the iceberg called “driver.” Under current Russian law — and in most countries around the world — only those who have acquired the necessary skills and knowledge from a professional driving instructor, who have successfully passed the theoretical and practical exams at the traffic police (GIBDD), and who have consequently received driving documents, are allowed to operate a car. You would be mistaken to think this is a whim or an attempt to control you completely. Beyond pleasure, driving a car is an activity closely associated with risk — both to your life and health and to the lives of others — so learning to drive should be approached with solid initial training and a sense of responsibility. In principle, it does not really matter where you learn to drive, whether in specialized driving courses or individually with an instructor, on an automatic or a manual transmission. For this purpose there is the Shansavto driving school, created to help all beginning motorists.

The standard training program at Shansavto driving school is divided into two stages: theoretical and practical. There is no hierarchy between them, and to think that practice is more important than theory is a serious mistake, because in our view harmony between the two is fundamentally important and will help you absorb information as fully as possible. The primary goal of the theory course at Shansavto is to provide you with the maximum amount of knowledge you will need for practical lessons and future driving: you will learn the traffic rules, learn how to provide first aid in case of an emergency or accident, and you will learn the main technical secrets and nuances of driving a passenger car. Moreover, you can choose your lesson schedule at your discretion, depending on your available free time.

For many, the practical driving courses at Shansavto are exactly the reason to learn to drive. It would be wrong to assume that all practice consists of merely driving laps around a training lot. Your personal driving instructor will teach you all the subtleties and driving techniques. Driving in urban conditions can require extreme concentration and full commitment. You will become familiar with elements such as reversing, parking, turning in a confined space (“courtyard”), driving up a ramp and into a garage bay. As funny as it may sound, you will be taught how to properly use the accelerator and brake pedals. Driving an automatic transmission (AT) and courses on such vehicles have a number of subtleties compared to a conventional manual gearbox; however, if you wish, you can take the theoretical course on driving vehicles with an automatic transmission.

The main goal and task facing our driving school — and you as well — is to teach you not to be afraid of the road, to understand it, and to be able to react quickly to the surprises the road may present. Indeed, despite a strong desire to learn to drive, many people experience significant psychophysical difficulties when sitting behind the wheel. Nevertheless, even this can be easily “treated” with effort.

Remember that having a driving license and attending a driving school opens many horizons for you. We create optimal conditions for this. The quality of training at our Shansavto driving school and our results speak for themselves. Advantages such as having a permit from the Ministry of Education of the Russian Federation for instructional activities, a convenient and flexible lesson schedule, and professional instructors with extensive driving experience make our school somewhat unique. We are the only company that can guarantee with 100% confidence your success in training and in passing the theoretical and practical exams at the traffic police (GIBDD). Our unique and up-to-date teaching methods make the time spent at our school easy and relaxed. When fate itself gives you a real chance to achieve something by your own efforts — you must seize it. So remember: Shansavto driving school is your chance.
