The teacher was not understanding, she was rude. I really want to learn how to drive but she is causing me to lose my desire to drive. Classes are not cheap so I think they should teach with more patience and dedication. I did not like my experience at this auto school. I believe when we are learning we are prone to make mistakes. This teacher definitely needs to learn that we are human. Read Less

The women who owns this school location is disrespectful to her students, not helpful, rude, horrible costumer service, and accused me and insulted me as a dumb young adult compared to her as a sophisticated 60 year old women. She cut me off in every sentence. I was shocked on how they do business here. You should STAY AWAY from this place and go to a different location. They do not show any genuine care. The thing is all I wanted was to see if they still had on file my certificate that I lost from 3 years ago. Read Less

The owner called me all rude and condescending over her billing error. She accused me of being someone else that had been rude to her office and driver and told me I was 'yappy'. She said she was sick in bed and could not 'deal' with her business error. Furthermore she stated she didn't have to talk to me about the billing error since my son was 18 even though he's not the one that paid. She told him When she first called on his phone to not put anyone else on the phone and sounded threatening to him. She's a total psycho and Soo unprofessional! The driver was 2 hours late the first session because of her error not his then the second session the driver was instructed to ask my son for $100 which is a surprise as we were advised BOTH sessions have already been paid for. She has zero customer service skills and blamed the customer for everything. STAY AWAY FROM THIS PLACE!! Read Less

Safeway driving school and instructors are "very shocking" the instructor looks at his phone while you're behind the wheels. Why waste $100 to teach yourself driving? I dont think it's very "SAFE."

I took a class as a refresher few days before my dreaded drive test and it increased my confidence level. My problem was that I knew the driving rules and technicalities but I just can't shake off the fear. Regretfully, I'm weird like that! My instructor, Miss Jayne, is awesome! I appreciate that she didn't just bombard me with skills or information but also tried to understand where my fear is coming from and helped address it. She's very meticulous but balances it with encouragement. I think that helped me pass my test.# Read Less

I have tried 3 other schools and I was just not seeing any good results., few of my sons friends told us about this school.

I have always feared putting young teens behind the wheel of a car. When it came time for our family to need driving services we chose the classroom to help with the DMV written test and chose the driving school to come to our house. The written test took four try's after finishing the classroom as the DMV is constantly changing the questions on the written test.In 8 sessions of driving behind the wheel I have seen my daughters confidence increase and she is driving really well now.I am confident that she will pass her driving test with all the training they have provided her. The instructors we have had all are very nice and knowledgeable all of them are patient, professional and offer encouragement with suggestions to improve performance. I Highly suggest Safeway Driving School. Read Less

I did the 30 hour classes with Charles Sanders. He gave great tips and cleared up any confusion. The only annoying thing about the class was the front office lady who would talk extremely loud and smoked cigarettes all the time. I then did a 2 hour behind the wheel with Jayne and she also gave great tips and made me feel extremely comfortable behind the wheel. I passed my drivers test the first try. I would defiantly recommend. Read Less

I called and talked to Kathy.  I asked if they had instructors that specialize in high functioning autism.  Kathy said, "Yes, we have autistic students."  I said, that's great, but my question was, "Do you have instructors that specialize in Autism?"  She said, no.  I asked how they go about teaching someone with special needs if they do not have any extra training.  She said, "I don't really know how the program works."  I asked to speak to a manager and she said, "I am the manager."  I said, "You are the manager, but you do not know how your driving program works?"  She said, "Let me put you on hold and ask the owner."  After a few minutes, she came back and said, "I told the owner about your complaint about me and he said to tell you to go somewhere else."  I said, "Ummm...I didn't complain about you, I just want to understand how your school works."  She said, "Just a minute hon..."  I interupted her and asked her to please not call me "Hon" as it's not professional and I just want information on the services offered.  At that point, SHE HUNG UP ON ME!!!  Reporting this place to the DMV, ADA and any other place I can think of!!!

I used to have lessons with one of their tutors and I asked the lady on the phone whether I could work with him again.  She said NO because he had left, it'd be the best way to be that way, etc.  Then I asked if I could schedule to use their car for the actual driving test and she said NO - I had to go through the classes again and pass the pre-test.  Fine.  Then when can I schedule the pre-test AND the actual test day to use the car?  She said she couldn't let me use the car (and schedule the date) until I pass the pre-test.  Fine.  What if I could pass the pre-test, can I use the car on the scheduled driving test or should I reschedule it with DMV?  She said NO - I shouldn't reschedule until she can schedule a car for me.  I asked how about this particular time & date to do the pre-test and use the car for the exam?  She Said NO there is no car available on my exam date.  Crap.  What kind of conversation is that?  I said that, in this case, should I speak to other driving schools because your cars are unavailable on my driving test date?  Then she hang up my phone.

I paid for my granddaughter to go here for lessons.  Because she had a tight school and work schedule, everything was planned and paid for, in advance, for her lessons.  There were days when they were late, calls to reschedule, and even an argument regarding the prepayment.  Had to take pictures of the credit card invoice to prove to them.  All that is bad enough, but the worse was when a teacher, named Jane, took my granddaughter out for a lesson, and she ran her errands. She told my granddaughter that she needed a break and had her park the car, while she went in to McDonalds to get something to eat, and then had her drive to Smiths, and she went in to do some grocery shopping.  This was all on her driving time.  The only good teacher she had was Beau. He actually taught her something.  I do not recommend this school to anyone! Read Less

Originally had a driving lesson on Wednesday with Tammy at 9 am, 30 mins passed and no one showed up. Called the school to let them know and they said they switched my lesson to another time without informing me. The person who I spoke to said they had called but never left a voicemail to let me know about the change...she said that doesn't make "sense" confused as to what? I then had my lesson rescheduled with someone different the same day. My instructor was Bruce and he was great I felt really comfortable driving with him and gave great tips. I'm giving one star though because they need to get their stuff together...if you call someone you need to leave a message so they know about "rescheduling" very unprofessional Read Less

It is definitely a driving school for freaky teenagers which teaches introductory learning by an incompetent teacher. Finally I managed to complete the class because it is easy to pass a test for an adult yet it is difficult for those who are naive and have no driving skills whatsoever. If you're an adult who already has the skills of driving in the past like mine, you don't have to learn from the lectures, you can just take the "behind the wheel" training instead. I recommend it for teens to learn the 30-hour classes while as an adult, I don't have to take all 30 hours to finish it. Thank god I have to get out this useless "30-hour" class. It is just funny that teenagers are clueless about ethanol. Read Less

Safeway Driving School is a great school for behind the wheel driving. Their cars are good and safe. Their instructor, Dennis, is wonderful and patient. Their management, Kathy, was very easy to talk with, nice, personable and knowledgeable. We were very comfortable having our 18 year old take his first lessons here. He lives in Vegas, and we live in San Diego. Kathy worked with us to arrange payment from San Diego. We appreciate that they picked up and dropped off on days of lesson, and that they offer the use of their school's car for the actual behind the wheel test at the DMV. I would definitely recommend this business. Read Less

My son-17 with Asperger's Syndrome-just passed his driving test first go around with a 90! Totally because of Safeway Driving School. This business is professional and caring--and they deliver more than they promise. Every appointment was coordinated and on-time; every lesson came with suggestions and positive input for things we could do to assist our son. Every instructor we had worked well with our son, and because of them and their caring instruction, he has gained a critical step towards self independence. I will continue to recommend this driving school to all of my friends with teens - disability or not. We will be back in a few years with our younger son. Thank you Kathy, Sam, Dennis, Joe, Tami and Ti for supporting our son! And thanks for being one of those rare gems in Las Vegas: a local business that truly cares about their community.Read Less

Not sure why so many of the comments are negative. I used the school three times—8 hour lessons, 10 hour lesson, and road test. Kathy is very nice and flexible with scheduling lessons. Sam was an excellent teacher. He was very patient and actively worked with me to improve the areas I was struggling with (mainly turning). He brought his own small pillow for me to sit on in order to improve my visibility, and we spent a whole day working on turns. The school adequately prepared me to pass the road test. I earned a perfect score on the parallel parking.Read Less

I would not have gotten my license if I did not take lesson from Safeway. My instructor was Danny. I took 4 two hour lessons. I took my test two days after my lesson and passed with a 98. Driving for the first time can be very scary. Danny made me as comfortable as I could possibly be. I would recommend Safeway to everyone I know trying to get a license. This school is the way to go.

Best decision to send my daughter to Safeway.  She took the class and learned SO much and it really helped with her taking the learners permit.  I also used Safeway to give my daughter driving lessons----- so worth it!!  Jayne was her instructor and she was just plain amazing - as a matter of fact my daughter scored a 100% on her drivers test.  Thank you Safeway for making such a stressful time less stressful.  I always recommend Safeway to my friends for their kids!!!!!

I took a class as a refresher few days before my dreaded drive test and it increased my confidence level. My problem was that I knew the driving rules and technicalities but I just can't shake off the fear. Regretfully, I'm weird like that! My instructor, Miss Jayne, is awesome! I appreciate that she didn't just bombard me with skills or information but also tried to understand where my fear is coming from and helped address it. She's very meticulous but balances it with encouragement. I think that helped me pass my test.# Read Less

I have always feared putting young teens behind the wheel of a car. When it came time for our family to need driving services we chose the classroom to help with the DMV written test and chose the driving school to come to our house. The written test took four try's after finishing the classroom as the DMV is constantly changing the questions on the written test.In 8 sessions of driving behind the wheel I have seen my daughters confidence increase and she is driving really well now.I am confident that she will pass her driving test with all the training they have provided her. The instructors we have had all are very nice and knowledgeable all of them are patient, professional and offer encouragement with suggestions to improve performance. I Highly suggest Safeway Driving School. Read Less

I did the 30 hour classes with Charles Sanders. He gave great tips and cleared up any confusion. The only annoying thing about the class was the front office lady who would talk extremely loud and smoked cigarettes all the time.

I called and talked to Kathy.  I asked if they had instructors that specialize in high functioning autism.  Kathy said, "Yes, we have autistic students."  I said, that's great, but my question was, "Do you have instructors that specialize in Autism?"  She said, no.  I asked how they go about teaching someone with special needs if they do not have any extra training.  She said, "I don't really know how the program works."  I asked to speak to a manager and she said, "I am the manager."  I said, "You are the manager, but you do not know how your driving program works?"  She said, "Let me put you on hold and ask the owner."  After a few minutes, she came back and said, "I told the owner about your complaint about me and he said to tell you to go somewhere else."  I said, "Ummm...I didn't complain about you, I just want to understand how your school works."  She said, "Just a minute hon..."  I interupted her and asked her to please not call me "Hon" as it's not professional and I just want information on the services offered.  At that point, SHE HUNG UP ON ME!!!  Reporting this place to the DMV, ADA and any other place I can think of!!!

I used to have lessons with one of their tutors and I asked the lady on the phone whether I could work with him again.  She said NO because he had left, it'd be the best way to be that way, etc.  Then I asked if I could schedule to use their car for the actual driving test and she said NO - I had to go through the classes again and pass the pre-test.  Fine.  Then when can I schedule the pre-test AND the actual test day to use the car?  She said she couldn't let me use the car (and schedule the date) until I pass the pre-test.  Fine.  What if I could pass the pre-test, can I use the car on the scheduled driving test or should I reschedule it with DMV?  She said NO - I shouldn't reschedule until she can schedule a car for me.  I asked how about this particular time & date to do the pre-test and use the car for the exam?  She Said NO there is no car available on my exam date.  Crap.  What kind of conversation is that?  I said that, in this case, should I speak to other driving schools because your cars are unavailable on my driving test date?  Then she hang up my phone.

I paid for my granddaughter to go here for lessons.  Because she had a tight school and work schedule, everything was planned and paid for, in advance, for her lessons.  There were days when they were late, calls to reschedule, and even an argument regarding the prepayment.  Had to take pictures of the credit card invoice to prove to them.  All that is bad enough, but the worse was when a teacher, named Jane, took my granddaughter out for a lesson, and she ran her errands. She told my granddaughter that she needed a break and had her park the car, while she went in to McDonalds to get something to eat, and then had her drive to Smiths, and she went in to do some grocery shopping.  This was all on her driving time.  The only good teacher she had was Beau. He actually taught her something.  I do not recommend this school to anyone! Read Less

Originally had a driving lesson on Wednesday with Tammy at 9 am, 30 mins passed and no one showed up. Called the school to let them know and they said they switched my lesson to another time without informing me. The person who I spoke to said they had called but never left a voicemail to let me know about the change...she said that doesn't make "sense" confused as to what? I then had my lesson rescheduled with someone different the same day. My instructor was Bruce and he was great I felt really comfortable driving with him and gave great tips. I'm giving one star though because they need to get their stuff together...if you call someone you need to leave a message so they know about "rescheduling" very unprofessional Read Less

It is definitely a driving school for freaky teenagers which teaches introductory learning by an incompetent teacher. Finally I managed to complete the class because it is easy to pass a test for an adult yet it is difficult for those who are naive and have no driving skills whatsoever. If you're an adult who already has the skills of driving in the past like mine, you don't have to learn from the lectures, you can just take the "behind the wheel" training instead. I recommend it for teens to learn the 30-hour classes while as an adult, I don't have to take all 30 hours to finish it. Thank god I have to get out this useless "30-hour" class. It is just funny that teenagers are clueless about ethanol. Read Less

Safeway Driving School is a great school for behind the wheel driving. Their cars are good and safe. Their instructor, Dennis, is wonderful and patient. Their management, Kathy, was very easy to talk with, nice, personable and knowledgeable. We were very comfortable having our 18 year old take his first lessons here. He lives in Vegas, and we live in San Diego. Kathy worked with us to arrange payment from San Diego. We appreciate that they picked up and dropped off on days of lesson, and that they offer the use of their school's car for the actual behind the wheel test at the DMV. I would definitely recommend this business. Read Less

My son-17 with Asperger's Syndrome-just passed his driving test first go around with a 90! Totally because of Safeway Driving School. This business is professional and caring--and they deliver more than they promise. Every appointment was coordinated and on-time; every lesson came with suggestions and positive input for things we could do to assist our son. Every instructor we had worked well with our son, and because of them and their caring instruction, he has gained a critical step towards self independence. I will continue to recommend this driving school to all of my friends with teens - disability or not. We will be back in a few years with our younger son. Thank you Kathy, Sam, Dennis, Joe, Tami and Ti for supporting our son! And thanks for being one of those rare gems in Las Vegas: a local business that truly cares about their community.Read Less

Not sure why so many of the comments are negative. I used the school three times—8 hour lessons, 10 hour lesson, and road test. Kathy is very nice and flexible with scheduling lessons. Sam was an excellent teacher. He was very patient and actively worked with me to improve the areas I was struggling with (mainly turning). He brought his own small pillow for me to sit on in order to improve my visibility, and we spent a whole day working on turns. The school adequately prepared me to pass the road test.
