Open the school’s lesson list
Enter the driving school and use its lesson marker. The classic course contains twelve tests; follow the list supplied by your edition, since lesson availability can differ. A passing result unlocks the next exercise.
-
The 360 and The 180
For The 360, use the displayed brake and acceleration combination to rotate in place, then release near the starting heading. For The 180, build speed, turn around the end cone and stop neatly in the return position.
-
Whip and Terminate; Pop and Control
Brake into the ninety-degree turn for Whip and Terminate and straighten before stopping. In Pop and Control, expect reduced grip after the spike strip and make smaller steering inputs through the cones.
-
Burn and Lap; Cone Coil
Keep a repeatable line around the lap course instead of braking differently every corner. For Cone Coil, leave space for the turnaround and pass through the slalom cleanly on both directions.
-
The 90 and Wheelie Weave
In The 90, use the handbrake to slide into the parking gap and stop parallel to the other cars. For Wheelie Weave, hit the ramp with the intended side of the car, balance on two wheels and settle it before the finish.
-
Spin and Go; PIT Maneuver
Where available, Spin and Go uses a reversing turn: rotate, straighten and accelerate through the exit. For the PIT lesson, contact the rear quarter of the other police car gently enough to turn it without a high-speed collision.
-
Alley Oop
Place only one side of the car on the ramp to produce the roll. Adjust the approach so the car rotates over the parked vehicles and lands on its wheels rather than hitting their roofs.
-
City Slicking
Drive to the city checkpoint and return within the displayed limit. Choose a clear route, brake before junctions and avoid stopping or colliding. Damage and poor finishing alignment reduce the result even on a quick run.
-
Finish the required medal set
Obtain at least bronze in every available lesson. Together with the later story prerequisites, school completion enables the Wang Cars chain. Return for silver or gold after the basic pass if you want the better reward vehicles.
Key point
Use the result screen to identify the weak part of a test: time, damage, final position or heading. Repeating a faster run will not fix a score lost to hitting cones or stopping at the wrong angle.
