How much is driving school in NYC?

I live in New York City and I want to go to driving school to get my license. My parents are making me pay for it, so I want to budget enough. How much should I expect to pay for driving school in NYC?

New York
 is one of the most hectic places to drive, so lessons are important!
Driving school in NYC is typically $50 for the pre-licensing course and around $60 to $100 for driving lessons.
In most cases, you can combine these courses or get them in a package deal, which will earn you a small discount.
To get your license in NYC, you’ll have to meet the following requirements:
  • A five-hour pre-licensing course or equivalent instruction at your high school, which qualifies you for a learner’s permit
  • 50 hours of supervised driving, including 15 hours of driving at sunset or after dark
  • A six-month waiting period between the time you get your permit and when you can sign up for your driver’s license test

How do you dye seat belts?
I’m finally allowed to have my car on campus, and I’ve been trying to think of cute ways to make my car stand out and feel more like “me.” I saw someone dye their seat belts once, and I’ve been obsessed with the idea. How do you dye seat belts?
