What It's Like to Drive Around Tustin High School

This is Old Town Tustin driving — a flat, square street grid laid out a century ago, with El Camino Real running right past the front of campus. The blocks here are short and predictable, with stop signs and modest speeds, which makes the area around the school an ideal place to nail the fundamentals. We start drivers on the quiet Old Town side streets, then work onto El Camino Real and over to Newport Avenue, a wider arterial. Red Hill Avenue and Irvine Boulevard, both heavier corridors with bigger intersections, come once the grid feels routine.

Intersections Our Instructors Focus On Near Tustin High School

  • El Camino Real & Newport Ave — a central Old Town intersection where drivers learn to handle steady cross-traffic and time a left onto a wider road
  • Main St & El Camino Real — the historic downtown corner, used to practice four-way stops and sharing tight blocks with parked cars and pedestrians
  • Newport Ave & Irvine Blvd — a high-volume crossing where new drivers step up to a large signalized intersection with multiple turn lanes
  • Red Hill Ave & 17th St — a busy arterial junction on the edge of town, good for merging confidence and reading faster-moving traffic
