How long is driving school in Massachusetts?
They’ve started requiring driver’s ed for minors who want to get their license. How long is driving school in Massachusetts? I’ll be 18 in about a year and I’m trying to decide if it’s worth it.

Reviewed by Shannon Martin, Licensed Insurance Agent.
- 30 hours of classroom time
- 12 hours of driving behind the wheel
- Six hours of backseat observation
This brings the total required hours for driving school to 48 hours.
It’s also a good idea to keep in mind that taking driver’s ed makes you a much safer driver. You’ll learn more about the rules of the road, what to do in a hazardous situation, and how to avoid unsafe behaviors. Even if you’d rather just wait until you turn 18 to get your license, driving school could help.
As a new driver, it can also be really difficult to find affordable car insurance. The
