Terms of Service

By using this website (“Service”) you are agreeing to be bound by the following terms and conditions (“Terms of Service”) with Blue Steel Auto School EIN. Blue Steel Auto School reserves the right to update and change the Terms of Service without notice.

Lateness

If you are more than 15 minutes late for your lesson or class, your lesson may be forfeited at your expense. Lateness to a lesson will result in that time being deducted from your lesson and you will receive the remaining time that is left. Lateness for Road Tests: The DMV is very strict when it comes to lateness, therefore you must be on time for your Road Test. If you have booked a car with us, make sure to arrive at the office on the day of your test at the time specified via text. If you are more than 10 minutes late to your appointment, you may be responsible for getting to the test site yourself. It is then at the discretion of the DMV examiner to determine if you will be allowed to take your exam. We are not responsible if you are unable to take your exam due to lateness.

Road Test Appointment Booking

Road Tests within a Package: Road test appointments within a package must be booked by Blue Steel Auto School. You authorize Blue Steel Auto School to book your road test through the NY DMV. You must complete a 5 Hour Pre-Licensing Course to be eligible for a road test. You must contact Blue Steel Auto School to request the booking of your road test. You will then be placed on the waiting list and be subject to standard
DMV wait times. If you book your own road test, we are not responsible for availability of a car. Booking your own road test appointment will forfeit the use of our car for the road test.

Weather Conditions

In the event of rainy or snowy conditions, please assume that all lessons and classes are still in session. If we find the conditions to be dangerous or excessive, we will notify you in order to reschedule your appointment. You cannot assume that a lesson is canceled due to rain or light snow.

Code of Conduct

Our instructors are required to uphold high standards of conduct and professionalism, and we expect the same of our students. If for any reason, the instructor feels like the student is behaving recklessly, dangerously, and/or disrespectfully, the service will be stopped and forfeited. We reserve the right to cancel the lesson if the student is intoxicated, for the safety of the instructor and the student. Racial discrimination, sexual harassment, and verbal/physical assault by either party will not be tolerated under any circumstances. Students cannot be accompanied by any individual, whether a parent, spouse, child, friend, or animals (pets).

Cancellation / Rescheduling of lessons/Courses
