Driving lessons in a Porsche - A driving school in Monaco is now offering lessons in a Porsche, catering to wealthy young drivers who are likely to drive high-powered cars. The Monaco Bonne Conduite driving school, managed by Paul Croesi, introduced this option on March 31st for safety and awareness reasons. Croesi explains that many students, after passing their driving test in cars with 60-80 horsepower, return with vehicles boasting 600-700 horsepower. His goal is to train students on handling these powerful cars safely, emphasizing road safety alongside driving skills. The lessons are open to both beginners and experienced drivers, but come at a premium: €159 per hour, compared to the usual €55. Louise, a 17-year-old student who recently completed her fourth hour in a Porsche 911 Carrera, says, "Driving a Porsche is very different from driving a normal car. It's still very enjoyable."
