I loved taking the course through ricks driving school. Very informative and took the time to answer any questions his students had. I’d highly recommend Ricks Driving School to those who are looking for drivers ed. The driving instructors go above and beyond to help you learn and gain confidence behind the wheel... with only a few lessons in and much at home practice I was able to take my G2 road test today, and PASSED!!!! Thank you so much Rick and Tamara!!!!! Read Less

Hey everybody just had a terrible experience with Ricks Driving school paid the $120 to use their vehicle then they canceled on my last second via text msg, nothing but sleazeballs who wanna take your cash and rip you off now I have to pay for my g2 test because of the ridiculous company, and the driver instructer was awful and barely spoke English, thanks for wasting my time. Very unprofessional, I will be taking my money to a more professional place preferably Rays driving school. Where they have people that speak english and teach the lessons properly, I learned nothing from them they are the absolute worse. Instructor named Goran was a complete asshole and Rick seemed disappointed to give money back, what a joke hahahahaha Read Less

I have had the pleasure of going through the in class with Rick and in car with Tamara and the experience was phenomenal. The in class lessons I was able to learn a lot with Rick and he was great with making things clear to understand as well as open to questions with answers that made it so easy to remember. Tamara is AMAZING!! She went above and beyond to fit me into her already busy schedule. She made learning fun and was great with techniques on certain parallel parking that I have always struggled with and now it is easy and natural. She was so flexible with where we can meet and was always a pleasure. The hour would fly by because of how enjoyable the lesson was. They all deserve 2 big thumbs up and i wouldnt recommend any other driving school but Ricks!! THANK YOU ALL SO MUCH!!! Read Less

Ricks Driving School was very helpful in making it easy to arrange driving lessons in our area (Gravenhurst/Bracebridge). The content was comparable to YDC as my daughter took YDC but the price was certainly much more affordable. I would highly recommend this school. We were very happy with the driver instructor Roger.

Ricks driving school was a great experience ! I had Dan as my driver instructor, and he was amazing. He was very good at explaining the rules of the road as well as making me feel comfortable driving behind the wheel. I wouldn't be as confident driving without the classes I had with Dan. I am one of the only ones out of my friends who will drive in the city without hesitating if it will be too scary. I am very grateful for my overall experience ! Read Less

I was super nervous to start my driving lessons, and I made some mistakes along the way. But Diane was an amazing driving instructor! She was always very kind, supportive, encouraging and patient. She provided me with the knowledge and skills to successfully pass driving school and get my G2! Even though I finished my driving lessons months prior to going for my G2, Diane took me out for another lesson to boost my confidence. And again, a year later before my G test. Diane has gone over and above on multiple occasions and I continue to suggest her to friends and family even three years. Thank you for the great service Diane! Read Less
