Driving School in Gainesville, VA

Our largest service area with easy scheduling and pickup at Gainesville High School.

Serving the Gainesville Community

Gainesville is one of the largest areas Abba Driving School serves, and we have a strong presence here. You'll regularly see our behind the wheel students driving along Lee Highway and Linton Hall Road, especially near the Virginia Gateway Shopping Center. Because so many of our students live in Gainesville, scheduling is consistently easy with available time slots throughout the week.

We offer all three of our services to the Gainesville community: behind the wheel training, driver education, and driver improvement courses. Many of our students attend Gainesville High School, and pickup at the school is always available. Located just minutes from our Haymarket office, Gainesville students benefit from a large pool of local instructors and flexible scheduling seven days a week.

Behind the Wheel in Gainesville

Lee Highway (US-29) and Linton Hall Road are two of Gainesville's busiest corridors, and they're where our students get real-world practice with multi-lane traffic, turning movements at busy intersections, and merging onto I-66. The area around Virginia Gateway Shopping Center is another frequent training route, where students practice parking lot navigation, pedestrian awareness, and right-of-way in commercial areas.

Gainesville has one of our largest student populations. Pickup at Gainesville High School is always available, and our instructors also serve students in neighborhoods off Lee Highway, Linton Hall Road, and the communities near Heritage Hunt and Virginia Gateway. The excellent mix of arterial roads and quieter suburban streets gives students a well-rounded driving education before their road skills test.
