SafeWay Driving is operated by Schertz resident Bryan Nugent, who said he has witnessed the importance of driver education as the father to two teenagers.

"There’s nothing I wouldn’t give to ensure my children are as safe as possible on the roads. I love watching a student gain the confidence and skills needed to safely navigate our roads and the independence that comes with that,” Nugent said in the release.
