Automobile Instruction for Men and Women, circa 1924
Add to SetSummary
Driver education did not become a regular part of American high schools until the 1930s. Prior to that, young drivers -- or older first-time drivers -- could take instructional courses offered by automobile dealers or community organizations. This brochure advertised a course offered by a YMCA in New York City. Early courses often taught auto care and maintenance as well as driving.
