Great experience with 4 of my kids! Randy and his team are professional, honest and reliable. Every couple years we ve sent a new kid his way because we know 1st Drive can be counted on to teach and to test fairly and effectively. We highly recommend!
Our 2nd teen just passed a driving test with first drive. Great classes and driving instruction. Definitely will take our next kid there in 3 years! ***** Update... 3rd kid to go to 1st Drive is soaking up a lot of things from his in person class. Definitely prefer in person to online. Great experience as always. Plus when mom messed up the start date ( ) we were given the grace of taking him to 2 classes next month. Flexible despite my incompetence. So awesome.
Thank you for a great experience getting my permit. The Home Study course was enjoyable and I never felt bored. The permit test was really easy and no stress at all. Overall a great place to get a permit and I will be back for my drivers test!
Randy was Awesome!!!!!! He made my daughter feel confident and safe. He was very clear with instructions. She did mess up a few times. I asked him for feedback so that she coukd practice more! I could tell he has been doing this for years and has a heart for teens! I would recommend 1st Dive to any and everyone. My other 5 children will be going to 1st Drive in the future!!! It was such a warm and friendly atmosphere. Felt like family the moment we walked it. Thank again to Randy and his team!
Took my drivers license test here today. Very friendly staff! Test was affordable (best price in town) and absolutely passable with basic defensive driving capabilities and knowledge. The course takes you through a beautiful neighborhood too. Highly recommend!
Long story short, I found myself retaking my permit and drivers test at 43 yo, after accidentally not paying a ticket and then letting my license lapse. Good times. Although I have actually been driving longer than I havent at this point, I was incredibly nervous about taking the test- mostly written, but both! I took my permit test with the lovely lady who owns it (whose name I forget, so sorry) and she was patient and accommodating. I have terrible ADHD and she made sure I had a nice quiet environment...
. There was a mixup of some kind, and I was unaware that I could have taken the permit test for free at the DMV, and they kindly gave me a credit towards my drivers test. Randy was my driving test instructor, and couldnt have been better! At 43 yo I was as nervous as any teen taking the test- its been YEARS since I have had to do this! Randy is a calm, patient, kind man, and he made a point to engage in friendly conversation to put me at ease before and during the test. Randy and his wife have 3 kids and 4 grandchildren, and all I could think is how lucky they are to have such awesome parents! Hopefully I wont be needing their services for myself again anytime soon, but would and will be recommending them to anyone who might!! Thanks for a great experience in what is admittedly a stressful situation for anyone!
I took the driving test with Randy today. He was direct with instructions and was patient. I didnt feel nervous and the route was gorgeous and safe. Randy is knowledgeable and gave me some well appreciated tips on how to better manage my skills as well as all around safety. I highly recommend this school.
Good service at the location, however it should be noted they do not return phone calls after the test is over. I was told the driving test was all I needed to complete, turn out It was not true, I need to complete the witten test and eye test. Could have been my misunderstanding. It was not made clear to me,......
The drive tester got on my son for driving too fast in a residential area when he was following the speed limit. He then marked him off 4 times for something so petty that no one in this country should have a license. Nobody has ever been pulled over for this offense. He even avoided an accident when he was cut off during his test! Are you kidding me?!!! My son didnt get his licence because the tester was petty. The woman with the tattoos is awesome though. And I truly appreciate her help. Shanon? Im sorry, Im terrible with names. You are the best part of that company as far as Ive seen.
All three of my kids have gone through their 6 hour behind the wheel program and have found the experience educational and enjoyable. They are very supportive and friendly. Mike just finished the program with my son who passed his test the first time. Thanks so very much. I will be recommending your services to my friends.
