The only reason that I don't give one star is because there was virtually no wait to have my son take the knowledge test for his permit.  We registered online, all was well at that point and then my son couldn't find his ASB photo ID card from school and that delayed our timeline for his test. A month went by and being a working single mom means I have a million things going on constantly.  I prepaid for this test but when I took him back today no mention was made of payment already being mad so they charged me again. My son was taken to a private testing room so I went to the car and looked at the Visa statement which showed a charge to this driving school in May. I talked with Rachel to see if that charge could be taken off and she said that the policy states that there are no refunds issued.  I tried to explain to her that I'm not asking for a refund on the service provided but want to be refunded for the double charge. She basically explained to me that this was my fault for not telling her it was already paid for and nothing can be done. I've been on both sides of customer service, this is an excellent example of bad customer service. Read Less

I took my drive test and got a 65%. The only thing I did wrong was parallel parking on the curb. She said "I looked in my mirror too much" and "my right turns are wide" like yes but also I was still legally in my lane? I highly do not recommend paying these people for services, unless you are a perfect perfect perfect driver. Which nobody starting out ever is so? They just want me to pay for another test. I have a minimum wage paying job. I can not afford this so I'm getting a bus pass. Cool. Read Less

I'm just like Jeff F who gave them one star. The little old lady was so particular, it's insane. I think she failed me just so she could get another $50 out of me. She told me I failed because I went over the imaginary line in the road, thats crazy! She also failed me because she had me park behind a truck on a side street, I put the car in park, and later she told me the car was on the hill and I should of turned my wheels toward the curb.  There was absolutely no hill!!!!  Maybe in her little mind. I have been a safe driver for over 30 years and this old lady is crazy. Do not go to this driving school, or at least don't have her as an instructor Read Less

I do not recommend for dol testing if you lost your license, and need to test to get your license back. I don't think the little old lady would have passed me, ever. I have to have an ignition interlock in my car, and I think this was the end of testing as far as she was concerned.  It started out with my hand signals, she said my thumbs were not positioned correctly! Are you serious? It didn't get any better from there. Needless to say I got a 76%. I have been a safe driver for 25 years with no accidents. What a joke. Went the same day to 911 driving school in Everett and got a 98%. Lost 2 points for backing around a corner....in my suburban! LOL. Read Less

Took my DOL written test here today and passed. Pros to not taking it at actually DOL office-less then 10 minute wait to test-quiet environment and don't feel rushed-only have to bring permit Con to not taking it at actually DOL office-you have a time limit but they are not to strict about itNOTE: if you took a defensive teen course then the first 2 attempts are free.
