This driving school is great and local. I first used it in the summer of 2018 to get my 6 hours done for my permit and had Kevin. He was nice enough but a little strict - either way, I got my 6 hours done and got my permit. We were going away for the summer a few days later, and they nicely rushed our permit order so I could drive all summer! About 10 months later I used the school again to do a quick review for my road test and got Joe. Joe was very nice and helpful especially with the parallel parking, which I was slightly uncomfortable on. The day of my test came, and the owner, Tom, took me to review right before the road test. We met him at the school, then drove to a place near the test taking center to review. He helped me tremendously with everything that I would encounter on the road test and the parking. He was very knowledgeable of the test itself, as well as the people administering it, and made my experience SO much easier. I have my license thanks to them and would definitely recommend this school to a friend!Thanks again! Read Less

Not impressed with this driving school. The owner can be pretty rude. He took me to my driving test in Edison which was part of the GDL program my parents paid for. During my driving test, I was really nervous and messed up on the parallel parking portion. After having the DMV woman yell at me in the car he stated to trash talk my parking along with her as if I weren't even there to I point where I almost cried right then and there. I thought after my parents had paid him so much money he would at least defend me or maybe even acknowledge the fact that I was really nervous but nope. He then expected me to thank him because she decided to pass me because he taught her son how to drive and my driving portion went well. Overall, I had a bad experience with this company so spend your money elsewhere. Read Less

Complete rip off. Be careful about this school. For showing me the DMV office and infoming me about learners permit he charged amount in three digits.

Today in Hillsborough at 2:45 PM, I witnessed one of their employees waiting to make a turn at Hillsborough Road and Route 206 South in heavy traffic, while the DRIVER WAS ON HIS CELL PHONE!!! I called the BWDSand left a message letting them know about this, and received a call back about fifteen minutes later. It was not the owner, but another "instructor", who had heard my message, and wanted to explain to me why the employee was not complying with the law by using a hands-free device. His story? "It was an emergency, he said. " I needed to contact him and speak with him immediately". I asked this gentleman if breaking the law in heavy volume traffic was the norm when working for a driving school, and excuses flowed fast and furious. " How can I be sure that you're on a hands-free device right now"?, he asked me, swiftly deflecting from the issue at hand. I explained to him, once again the irony of a car, with a instructor talking on a cell phone , NON HANDS FREE, with a HUGE DRIVING SCHOOL SIGN FLASHING ATOP THEIR INSTRUCTIONAL vehicle. No, he didn't. He said the instructor, a young man, could not pull over to take the call, in this emergency, even in violation of NJ State Law. So, if ever deciding to bring your young adults or soon-to-be-licensed family members to BWDS, read this review closely, and remember that the distracted driver that might kill or injure your newly-licensed driver, just might be the one who "instructed" them...They do not teach young men and women to pull over to answer the phone in case of an emergency, they tell them that it's OK to BREAK THE LAW if it's an emergency.
