Kung Fu Driving School is a DOL-approved knowledge-test and road-test center in North Seattle, about 20 miles (roughly 25–35 minutes via I-5 S and I-90 E, depending on traffic) from Newcastle. Our instructors are bilingual in Chinese and English, so Newcastle's Chinese-speaking families can prepare for a WA license without a language barrier.
Why Newcastle families choose us
Take both the Washington knowledge test and the road (skills) test at our own DOL-approved center — no separate booking at a crowded state office.
The knowledge test can be taken in Chinese, with Chinese-language help through booking and the road test.
Same-day and weekend road tests are available — handy for Newcastle families juggling work and school schedules.
A 1-hour pre-test warm-up on the real route fixes exactly what examiners deduct for, so many students pass on the first try.
