Student shares how the program changed his life

SafeWay Driving in Houston and Katy offers drivers ed courses for people with special needs and is the only privately operated driving school in the area currently doing so.
The article highlighted Parker Peddicord, one of franchisee Rick Nussle's clients who enrolled in the course and has attention hyperactivity distorter and autism. Parker told Houston Chronicle reporter Sebastian Herrera the program changed his life.
"It's very hands-on," Parker told Herrera. "They helped me all the way through it. They were very patient with me."
The article also focused on Rick and what separates his driving school from the rest in the area.
"I've seen schools with four kids in a car at the same time," Nussle told Herrera. "At SafeWay, we do max two kids. I just don't think enough parents know this is out there, or they don't think their kids will be able to drive."
