Took the test in their car and it was clean and good enough to feel confident. I feel like the instrctor (Phil) was fair with me, even though the test can be harsh. Overall a good experience.

I was a little nervous learning to drive in my forties, but the instructors were caring, reassuring, and inspiring. 2 years since my driving test, I'm driving confidently without accidents.

Kirkpatrick Auto Sales are the best driving school in the area, and I know because every time I need driving practice, I go there. I've taken classes in other places, but I always end up going back to Kirkpatrick. The other ones just don't have the right curriculum. I have learned more at Kirkpatrick since I started going there than I have in the other places combined. It's also very affordable. I highly recommend this driving school!
