1st Choice Driving & Traffic School South Los Angeles, Los Angeles

Been out of the country for 7+ years and never got my license before leaving. Returned to LA in Jan, took only 4 lessons with 1st Choice, and passed my behind-the-wheel test on the first try. 100% recommend for all adult learners. Try to get Cris as your instructor (dude is just a natural driver/teacher). Gilbert is also good.

My experience with 1st Choice Driving School was great. Huge shoutout to Donovan, my driving instructor. Being a complete novice in the world of driving, I was pretty anxious at the start. However, my instructor helped me tackle my driving fears and patiently guided me through the basics, explained all the rules of the road, and made sure I didnt make the same mistakes again. Donovan was friendly, patient and was tough at times but only to make sure you pass your driving test. He goes the extra mile to motivate students and help them succeed. Would highly recommend to take lessons with Donovan. Thank you again!!

Highly recommend this company. They are responsive, and good customer service. Gilbert was the fabulous driving instructor who prepped me well and I passed the test. The office also solved an initial problem, responding, apologising and sorting it out. Great service.

They are horrible I had rented their car for my dmv driving test and they are supposed to review and help you before the test! The young lady was sweet but did not help me at all I had to keep asking her questions on my own they dont seem to care honestly if you pass or not. They just want your money!

If it there is Zero I would give them Zero! Don t Waste your money or your time with this place! I wanted to write everything & I really don t even know where to start! First of all THEY NEVER EVER GIVE YOU FEEDBACKS! Called multiple times asked the instructor to gave me a feedbacks. They never did! Her answer was, I couldn t find them, I asked her even if they can do in writing. They never ever did. They told my daughter, You are ready to take a driving test! Which she was not ready ! this just one example, There s a lot of scary things ! Stay away from this place ! I did a big mistake cause of all these FAKE REVIEWS ! I really regretted! Learn from me.

The instructor was awesome very patient and knowledgeable help me fix minor issues with my driving before my drivers test. Those pointers helped me pass

Good experience with the driving school, prompt response from the desk with scheduling, instructors have been great and the pricing is reasonable.

The driving instructor was very thorough and on point. He took me around the driving route that is tested multiple times until I got it down perfectly. This is money well spent and completely worth it. I m totally glad I chose this driving school!

I wanted to get my license in a month and so my sister recommended Donovan at this driving school. And I am so glad I had him as my driving instructor. I passed my driving test the first time. One thing that makes him stand out is that he instills so much confidence in the student and that confidence is what every new driver needs. He taught me everything I needed to know to be a good driver. He was very patient and would answer all my questions/concerns. If you are looking for a good instructor to learn how to drive and pass the dmv test then look no further. I highly recommend Donovan and this driving school.

A huge thank you to this driving school especially Donovan, my driving instructor. I was completely new to driving a car and he helped me ease into driving. I took 4 lessons before I went to my first driving test attempt, I didnt pass. I took another 3 lessons with Donovan and it really helped me that he was the instructor who took me to my second driving test. He put me at ease and made sure I didnt stress out right before my test. Donovan was very easy-going, funny and at the same time makes sure you are following all the right rules and also makes sure you are definitely ready for the test. Would 100% recommend to take lessons with Donovan.
