Is anyone aware of any skid pad, reasonably local, that someone teaching a brand new driver could use for instruction?  If not, any low priced student training course that includes skid pad instruction?

I guess the most inexpensive means is to wait until winter, find an iced empty parking lot and practice there.  Not all that bad.  Probaby every one of us has done that at some point.

Thanks,

Larry

There's a decent sized lot at a local park near my home. It is hard to resist a quick doughnut on those snowy commutes home. I'll share the address but request dibs on first tracks.
