Being very busy during Spring Break, they worked with us and squeezed in 3 lessons in 1 week.  My daughter had her driving appointment coming up within a week and I am so glad I called them. Amber was super sweet and very easy to work with. She was encouraging since the first initial phone call. My daughter was very pleased to have worked with her.  She made sure my daughter was ready and confident to take her driving test (which she passed on the first try).  Thank you Amber!! You're awesome! Read Less

I very strongly recommend this driving school for anybody who's looking to learn to drive. I've had a lot of behind the wheel experience but hadn't gotten my license yet as driving made me very anxious. Amber's friendly positive attitude and helpfulness made it easy for my to relax and ask questions and learn to be comfortable while driving. If I didn't understand a rule or know how to do anything she was always quick with an explanation. Seriously one of the most patient people ever.  I just took my driving test today and passed with only one mistake out of an allowed fifteen. Thanks so much!! Read Less

I could not recommend this driving school any more highly! I was extremely nervous about learning to drive, and specifically about taking behind-the-wheel lessons, but Amber's personality and teaching style made my time with her enjoyable, as well as highly informative. I came away from each lesson a quantifiably better driver, and recently passed my driving test on the first try because of her! (Which is really the greatest testament to her skill as a teacher.) I can't testify about the other instructors, but I'm sure they're just as wonderful as Amber is!In conclusion, don't you dare consider any other driving school besides Drive Happy. I'm serious! They're passionate about what they do, and what they do is turn people into safe, confident drivers. Never has a company had a more fitting name! Read Less

Overall, a great experience.  I was researching driving schools for my son and came across Drive Happy. They had some good reviews so I decided to contact them. The process was easy and seamless. I went on their website and enrolled my son, paid the $325 fee (I think this is correct) with credit card.  The owner Josh emailed me shortly and we set up the first appt.  My son did a total of 4 lessons at 90 min each.  His driving instructor was a guy named Chris and he was great! My son felt comfortable with him and he was a patient teacher. After each lesson, we would set up a time for the next one and Chris would review with us what they covered and what he should practice. In the end, my son passed his driving test only missing 5 pts.  I will use this company again when my youngest son is of age. I highly recommend Drive Happy and Chris as an instructor! Read Less

I enrolled my 16 year old daughter for both the online written part and the behind the wheel lessons.  My daughter had no problem passing the DMV test the first time she took it.  She was really comfortable with Amber during the behind the wheel training, she liked her a lot and seemed to learn quite a bit.  Following her second lesson I was able to let her drive on the freeway with no problem.  Of course, like any parent should, I spent many hours driving with my daughter giving her instruction in addition to her driving school lessons.     From our experience I highly recommend this school.(This is similar to the review that I posted on yahoo for this business.)

I'm giving them 1 star because I can't give them less.  Josh, one of the instructors, is a complete Jerk!!!! He was on the phone arguing with his wife the entire time he was supposed to be providing instructions to my mother while she drove. He even had the nerves to yell at her and scold her in a very unprofessional and demeaning manner because according to him she wasn't following his direction...directions he was not providing since he was too busy with his phone conversations. I paid for four 90 minutes session which turned out to be a complete waste of time and money.  Josh made the whole experience very uncomfortable for my mother.  He created a fear of driving which she did not have before. This is not what I expect from a "professional".  Oh, and he showed up late to 3 of the 4 sessions. Read Less
