This place is cluttered and VERY unprofessional. My daughter got her permit in the eight hour class because she is a full time student and active in sports at school the only day she can go driving on the road would be Saturdays and after they took our MONEY they would not put her the schedule to be on the road because they only do driving for teens during the week until 6pm and adults on Saturdays. They are horrible, don't return messages and honestly I think they both need to retire and stop robbing these poor teens who have a desire to learn and be safe on the roads. The classroom is old and the system they use to show video is old and can't hear nothing but mumble never mind a clear picture! I WISH I HAD NEVER TAKEN MY DAUGHTER HERE! CRAPY, LAZY, STINKS AND THEY ARE RUDE. LEARN TO BE PROFESSIONAL WHEN DEALING WITH THE PUBLIC! IT'S TIME TO RETIRE AND STOP TALKING ABOUT OTHER DRIVING SCHOOL WHO I'AM SURE GIVE BETTER SERVICE THEN YOU ALL AT 'PATZ DRIVING SCHOOL IN NEWINGTON" .

Patz Driving School is the best choice in Newington. The Patz family has been teaching In Newington since I was in High School and now they are teaching my children I would highly recommend Patz Driving School to teach your children how to drive safely. They are the preferred school by the DMV There is no other choice in town other then Patz.
Patz Driving School is the best price and value for driving lessons in town!

The old man Bob is really a horrible person. He acts as if he is doing you a favor. He does not talk but literally barks like a dog at ya. I had to yell back at him and tell him that I have bought your time and you have to be professional to me. Please go somewhere else and save yourself some time and money.

These guys don't know what the trade requires. The driving test was failed after two weeks of continuous training because of wrong coaching. Backup parking technique was coached incorrectly.

I had a very terrible experience going through this school to get my retraining class. I attended and paid for the class and within a month after the class, the DMV was still putting my license up for suspension. I called Patz Driving School to see why my information was not sent over. The lady i spoke to on the phone was very rude immediately telling me I didn't attend and that there was nothing she could do to help me. She was very rude to me telling me she doesn't care if I attended or not. I wasted 4 hours in that class to get no credit for it, very poor customer service, and no refund for their mistake in loss of paperwork. If you would like to take a day off from work to waste 4 hours in a class you will get no credit for and have to redo, Patz is the place for you.

Mr. Patz is a very nice man who teaches the students; he is pleasant and has a sense of humor. The parents' class was quite boring. The driving instructors are good. The problem is with the co-owner, Mrs. Pauline Patz. She is the one to deal with for payments, contracts and scheduling appointments. She is VERY difficult and VERY nasty to deal with. Had I know this up front, I certainly would have chosen another driving school.

Very poor school: very poor attitude. They feel they are doing a help by taking money and teaching people. Please avoid this school even if that means u have to pay extra money somewhere else. The person dealing, doesnt bother to even scream on customers if irritated due to no reason. He is CRAZY, all the time yelling to the trainees. I would not recommend for this CRAZY Driving school. STAY AWAY !!!

If they are charging you more than $ 125.00, you are paying too much. They want to charge 50.00 and hour for 2hrs of driving as well. If you have any further questions, please feel free to contact us.

If you're here, it's probably not by choice, so why read reviews?!At least it's a strange, quirky atmosphere for some otherwise stale subject matter. An 'A' for over the top decor.
