Universal Driving School

My husband and I have a good time learning from Tom.

I wish I found Tom sooner so I can have my license sooner.

5 stars for location & teaching style.

This business is located about 10 minutes from the DMV office. Although class is from 8-4:30, you must be there at 7:30 AM in order to register. The class size is small, so the instructor is able to engage the students. Although I was required by law to attend Traffic Survival School in person, I learned things about driving that I had never even knew existed. So, I gained new perspective. The method is a mix of lecture, workbook, and video. If you don't speak English (well), they can still work with you. (While I was there, an instructor was working with new Americans from Africa who only knew broken English.)

After class let out at 4:30 PM, I drove quickly to the DMV office. I stood in the Express Lane and had a clerk help me reinstate my suspended license. Despite popular belief, she accepted the paper certificate of completion from Universal Driving School. I paid with a debit card. (I think you must use plastic for this lane because it's like an ATM machine.) Literally, I walked out of the DMV at 4:55 PM with 2 large receipts proving that my license was reinstated. I kept them in my glove compartment and (legally) drove home.

Bring beverages and snacks. While lunch break is only 30 minutes, you get to eat in the classroom. A basic Circle K is only one block away.

The driving lesson was fun! I was a little nervous but had a great time.

Great class, very informative.
