Please keep the Dip and Safe & Sober programs with the Driving Schools, otherwise it will end like the BTW instruction that has become an all-comers affair.

Drivers that make mistakes should have to but some time in with a professional instructor. Why make it easier most people making having to do a DIP class don't seem to care anyway.

MVA wants Professional Driving Instructors and Professional Driving Schools... so why are they lowering the quality control standards?...What about the security of records management and students personal identity ...shouldn't that be keep in a secured safe location. Please do not lower the standards and keep Maryland Driver Education Professional

Maryland would lose credability and become the wild wild west of Driver Improvement if such a proposal would take effect.

We know that the MVA is trying to be customer friendly with the suggested change, but they have difficulty monitoring the sites that are driving schools. What can we expect to happen with non-driving schools offering a program they have little expertise in? Please vote to oppose the bill.

Our standards of quality have already been diminished by a lack of oversite. Most schools, I believe have the best interest of the general public reflected in their approach to running a business that educates. The word most, unfortunately, leaves out many that do not care what kind of service they provide as long as they make a profit. Word gets around about schools that will sell certifications without the requisite training, and many of them will not stop this illegal activity until caught. Please keep these programs in the Driver Education schools where they belong and please add to quality enforcement so we can weed out the problems that already exist.

Lowering the DIP standards would continue the trend of more lax oversight and enforcement which has led to lower quality driver's ed service throughout the industry.
