I came here to take my driving test. Randy was my driving instructor, and he was very patient and kind. I did not pass this time around, but he gave me very helpful pointers and reminders to do better next time. I intend on taking my retest here as the experience itself was very comfortable. Thank you Randy and Ill see you again soon for my retest.

Great experience with 4 of my kids! Randy and his team are professional, honest and reliable. Every couple years we ve sent a new kid his way because we know 1st Drive can be counted on to teach and to test fairly and effectively. We highly recommend!

Our 2nd teen just passed a driving test with first drive. Great classes and driving instruction. Definitely will take our next kid there in 3 years! ***** Update... 3rd kid to go to 1st Drive is soaking up a lot of things from his in person class. Definitely prefer in person to online. Great experience as always. Plus when mom messed up the start date ( ) we were given the grace of taking him to 2 classes next month. Flexible despite my incompetence. So awesome.

Thank you for a great experience getting my permit. The Home Study course was enjoyable and I never felt bored. The permit test was really easy and no stress at all. Overall a great place to get a permit and I will be back for my drivers test!

Randy was Awesome!!!!!! He made my daughter feel confident and safe. He was very clear with instructions. She did mess up a few times. I asked him for feedback so that she coukd practice more! I could tell he has been doing this for years and has a heart for teens! I would recommend 1st Dive to any and everyone. My other 5 children will be going to 1st Drive in the future!!! It was such a warm and friendly atmosphere. Felt like family the moment we walked it. Thank again to Randy and his team!

Took my drivers license test here today. Very friendly staff! Test was affordable (best price in town) and absolutely passable with basic defensive driving capabilities and knowledge. The course takes you through a beautiful neighborhood too. Highly recommend!

Long story short, I found myself retaking my permit and drivers test at 43 yo, after accidentally not paying a ticket and then letting my license lapse. Good times. Although I have actually been driving longer than I havent at this point, I was incredibly nervous about taking the test- mostly written, but both! I took my permit test with the lovely lady who owns it (whose name I forget, so sorry) and she was patient and accommodating. I have terrible ADHD and she made sure I had a nice quiet environment...
. There was a mixup of some kind, and I was unaware that I could have taken the permit test for free at the DMV, and they kindly gave me a credit towards my drivers test. Randy was my driving test instructor, and couldnt have been better! At 43 yo I was as nervous as any teen taking the test- its been YEARS since I have had to do this! Randy is a calm, patient, kind man, and he made a point to engage in friendly conversation to put me at ease before and during the test. Randy and his wife have 3 kids and 4 grandchildren, and all I could think is how lucky they are to have such awesome parents! Hopefully I wont be needing their services for myself again anytime soon, but would and will be recommending them to anyone who might!! Thanks for a great experience in what is admittedly a stressful situation for anyone!
