Taggart's Driving School Tucker

Adonis is a great instructor. I recommend him 10/10 !!! You ll learn how to drive safely and comfortably with him !!!

We found Taggarts to be helpful & trying their best to work around our schedule. My daughters Instructor, Jeff Rose was patient and encouraging. I would recommend Taggarts

Very pleased with the experience, not only did Taggart s meet the 6 hour requirement they also helped my son perfect his driving skills. We have the peace of mind with him driving on his own.

Austin is an excellent instructor. I found Taggarts to be much better instruction and learning than the school I used for my older child. Highly reccommend.

Emotional abuse at Taggarts in Tucker Recently, my wife and daughter went to the Lawrenceville location of Taggart for my daughter s driving test. We paid our $85 and the result was the most abusive, disrespectful, deflating, confidence crushing, shocking, and dumbfounding customer experience of all time. My wife and daughter arrived to greet a surly, red haired, thin woman in her 70 s. Let s call her Grumpy . As they reached the door of the room where Grumpy was sitting, without getting...
Read full review up or even lifting her head, she barked Across the hall indicating she wanted them to go to the room across the hall. It ended up that Grumpy was the one who administered my daughters driving test. The test was stopped even before my daughter was allowed to take the field driving test. My daughter did not know what had gone wrong and came back to the waiting room crying. My wife asked a question about whether using a backup camera was against the rules. Evidently, Grumpy was not too pleased with my wife s question and snapped back the following: - your daughter went over the double yellow line while backing up - she was going to hit those cones! - it didn t matter if she had that backup camera or not, your daughter was not going to make it - backing up, you have to keep looking back the whole time; you cannot look forward - she didn t use her turn signal when parallel parking but that didn t kill her - but then she was going to hit the curb so I cancelled the road test My daughter is nearly 18 years old and has had her permit for over a year and a half. She s successfully driven with my wife and I over 100 times including all of the major highways in Metro Atlanta (at rush hour) without any issues. She has practiced and successfully performed all driving skills. My daughter has worked very hard to pass her test. In the meeting at that point, Grumpy make a value judgement on my daughter and her ability to get her license, Honestly, I don t know if your daughter can drive or not. We didn t even make it to the road test. At this point, my daughter burst into tears. Here s my 18-year-old daughter who has worked hard to learn how to drive and Grumpy has a value statement. My wife was absolutely dumbfounded and needed time to process what was happening. My daughter was upset and crushed. Clearly, she was thinking that she would never get her driver s license after working so hard. At this point, my wife and daughter only wanted to escape the continued emotional abuse. But Grumpy went on, If it was nerves, then you should repeat your driver s test as soon as you can but not at a Taggart location. She did not encourage my wife and daughter to use Taggart again. Perhaps Grumpy just wanted us to cut her workload? My daughter was deflated and crushed. She cried all day. My wife learned more from my daughter about what had happened during the driving test and could not stop thinking how could someone who works with kids be so nasty? My daughter took driving lessons at Taggart and we paid the $85 for her to be tested at a Taggart location for her driver s license. Our expectation was a good experience where Maddie would either earn her driver s license OR learn more about what she needed to improve upon to earn it. They received neither. Instead, my wife and daughter were emotionally abused, treated disrespectfully, and met with unnecessary cruelty from the elderly, red-haired, thin woman at your Lawrenceville (Tucker, GA) location who conducted my daughter s driving test. This was not about passing or failing a driver s test. It was all about a very unhappy woman either purposely OR inadvertently destroying my 18-year-old daughter s confidence, spirit, and optimism. There is no cause for abusing another human being which is exactly what happened at the Taggart location in Tucker. Grumpy, if you are reading this, please don t worry about any of my family using any Taggart location for anything ever again. In fact, we plan to share this story of abuse far and wide to help prevent it from ever happening again.

This was such a great experience for my daughter who recently earned her license. The staff is VERY professional and does what they say theyll do! I would definitely recommend Taggarts!!

Had a good experience with taggart s driving school. Mr.Austin helped a lot with the detailed explanation of all the maneuvers. I am very happy that I passed the first try. Would highly recommend taking lessons with taggarts.

My daughter is learning everything she needs from teachers who take their time and actually teach. We would not have been able to have gotten everything taught to her that they have. The hands on driving with an instructor is what a young driver needs. It makes it a more serious and honest experience when theres not the emotional attachment of parent to child.

We like Taggarts for several reasons. They have convenient locations for us (East Cobb + Tucker), their cars have full dual controls, their scheduling worked well, and they are allowed by the DDS to administer the road test, which saved us time.

Okay this is going to be a long one so buckle up were going on a ride. So the first thing wrong with this program is the cost a standard program which is 30 hours in class six hours behind the wheel and the driving test is $695 which I paid and deeply regret paying. Second thing is the timing of this program. When I was getting ready to sign up on the phone the lady told me it would take no longer than two weeks after my in class learning to get my license and I got reassurance multiple times that...
Read full review it would not take long but instead it took about 2 months to get my license because the initial online classes took two weekends and then it took two weeks to wait for my first driving lesson then another week and a half for my next driving lesson then I had to wait 3 weeks for the next available testing date. The in-car driving classes were very helpful but I did not feel prepared for the test that they gave. My in-car driving classes did not involve going to Tucker to practice parking so I came ill-prepared to the test without properly knowing how they wanted me to behave on that part of the test. The third thing that could not have gone worse is the test itself. Theres actually a lot that goes into their driving test not only are you practicing parking and backing up but also you do go on the street and drive but the issue for me was not the test itself it was the instructor giving me the test. Generally you are supposed to have your test with the person who gave you your in car driving classes but I got a grumpy old man who scoffed at me every time I asked a question. My driving instructor, though annoying at times, was very good at defusing tension and the person that I got made it to where my nerves about taking this driving test were even worse than they should have been. I did fail the test which was my fault since I should have been able to drive even with the tension but the bigger issue to me was that I went immediately to take my test at a DMV which I passed with flying colors. And a word to the wise of anyone who will be using Taggarts even after you read this, you have to behave as if you are in real traffic while parking or you will be docked heavily for it. I truly feel like this was not the driving school for me and it is probably not the driving school for you if you do not have months to waste, $695 to waste, and the ability to deal with the unprofessional behavior of some of the driving instructors. Truly, if I could give them less than a star, I would. As a sidebar, I will say that I took these classes with my roommate and she did not have the same problem with her scheduling even though she scheduled two days after me. I dont know why and I really dont know how , but she got her license two weeks before me. She also took her driving classes with are in class instructor and passed on the first go even though she has failed the normal DMV driving test before.
