I echo many other reviewers who complain about the capacity of on-road driving lessons for students. The company is mis-managed and has too many students for the amount of driving hours available. Similar experience to others of no one answering phone and no call backs when messages left for both myself and my young driver. No recommendation here.

Never used them but I've been behind their student drivers and they have them driving 15-20 under the speed limit. don't teach kids to drive like old people thanks.

Ok, I first thought this school was less than stellar, but I was way off on my first impressions. It is almost a family affair-styled business with instructors that have years of experience, compassion and the know-how to deal with teenagers of all walks of life. They were flexible in their approach to scheduling and really tried hard to accommodate when possible. My kid just finished the driving hours, and all she did was remark on the various instructor's abilities to make her feel comfortable and safe. I would recommend them to anyone that needs to go through this important time!

TL;DR pick another driving school and save yourself frustration. Apparently this is a common theme for this business. Kids take their online course and then can't get their road hours scheduled. When you try to call the office, there's never any answer no matter what time of day you try. They do not respond to voice messages. They also don't respond to email. If you drive by their physical office, nobody is there either. If you're not going to complete the terms of the paid contract you agreed to, you need to refund the parents the money they've spent to get the smallest part of your service completed.

My grandson finished his online classes a few weeks ago. He mailed in his copy of his permit. He has gone online to try and book his driving hours, the website won't let him book them. We have called, texted and left messages. No response from this school. I WOULD NOT recommend this school to anyone. They take your money and don't provide services.

Critical:Quality It's been 3 months and school won't get back to me or my son to schedule driving hours. Online schedule doesn't work. Not happy WISH we picked another school. Sons supposed to get his drivers license next month and completed zero driving hours. I want my money back!

This business is failing to follow through on their services. We have been patient and understanding. This business has failed to honor its contract by accepting its 800.00 tuition and not offering services afterwards. A year later we still yet have any response from this business. I would not recommend this school. Such a huge disappointment, for all.
