The CAT class includes 4 hours of classroom instruction followed by a day of driving on a closed course. The class is taught by Charleston Police Traffic Division officers. There is a fee of $25 to cover the book; students MUST have AT LEAST a RESTRICTED LICENSE to participate due to prerequisite skill level and logistical concerns.
