Fantastic experience: My son has been going to Safeway driving school for a couple of months now. He mostly drives with Eric. Eric has been instrumental in teaching my son how to drive. My son is developing his confidence slowly. He makes it a fun and enjoyable experience, so much that my son looks forward to the drives. I appreciate how he works at my son's pace and does not push him. We are so grateful for Eric and the Safeway team.

Fantastic experience: Stephanie Thomas and Eric were my instructors! Stephanie was really good at teaching. She not only teaches you what to do but WHY to do it. Which is so important because it really helps to remember the rules. Eric was also really good at helping me stay in my lane and remember how to see where I am in my lane. Stephanie also helped me identify that with my side mirrors and had wonderful tips for that. Both instructors were really reassuring and help you build your confidence for driving. Stephanie taught me parallel parking with really easy steps and helped me navigate the free way (you don’t have to go on the free way if you don’t want to but you can!) Edit: wanted to also mention my great experiences with Lamel and Coach Dennis! Lamel was very responsive to emails. He gave me all the information I needed very quick! On the day of my test, I had forgotten some documents (don’t do that) but Lamel was kind enough to offer to print them for me. Otherwise I wouldn’t be able to do my test! Thank you Lamel! Coach Dennis was the one who took my test. I was nervous but because she was so calm, it helped me during my test. She’s awesome and really calms you down!

Fantastic experience: Thank Coach C Dennis for everything! You were so kind and helpful!

Fantastic experience: I am new to the country and had only a little experience in driving. Overall, the telephone operators were very receptive and welcoming. They call you back if they missed your call which in my opinion, is impressive. I did most of my lessons with Mr Eric Friederman. Eric was very understanding and helped me to boost my confidence in a short time. He is patient, knowledgeable and encouraging. I did my road test and passed in one trial. Ms Dennis, the examiner, topped it off by being very professional and kind in her voice. She allowed my nervousness to disappear during the road test. Thank you Safeway Driving School. It was a pleasure doing my classroom lessons and road test with you. Everything went smoothly. This school works in a timely and professional manner. (Antoinette B Thomas)

Fantastic experience: My Safeway experience has been amazing; simple, responsive. My test was straightforward with a super calm test driver and it all went well!

Fantastic experience: I am very pleased with the Mr. Limel he explained to myself and my wife the packages, and the process. I'm pleased and confident to be a safeway parent.

Fantastic experience: Excellent customer service. Very smooth process. Mr. Lamel explained the whole process from beginning to the end. He would follow up with you to make sure everything is done right. I highly recommend working with Mr Lamel at Safeway Driving Bellaire.

Fantastic experience: My son’s school recommended Safeway driving. My son can drive and drive well! The office manager Lamel Grant provided the best customer service from answering questions to ensuring my son’s driving log was signed after we added extra lessons. Every time I called he was pleasant, helpful, and knowledgeable. Eric one of the driving instructors provided my son with the instruction and feedback he needed to be a safe and confident driver. Thank you Safeway staff.

Fantastic experience: lamel Coach C. Dennis

Fantastic experience: Starting as a totally new (and very nervous) driver, I took a total of 4 driving lessons and the online course with Safeway Driving. Thanks to Eric, an amazing instructor with boundless patience and a super cool demeanor, I very quickly got much better and more confident with each lesson. So much so that just a few days after I finished, I was able to take the road test and passed! I really liked how Eric was able to point out what I needed to adjust that I was doing and what other people were doing right or wrong on the road as we were driving, making sure I understood the best way to do things and how things changed based on road conditions, all in a way that made me feel at ease during the entire lesson. To anyone considering this Safeway location to learn to drive or tune up their skills, I'd say absolutely to do it - no need for second-guessing. Thanks so much to Eric and the whole Safeway Driving team - you guys rock!

Fantastic experience: Coach Dennis, lamel!!! Best people ever! Thank you!!!☺️

Fantastic experience: Lamel and Coach Dennis!

Fantastic experience: We’ve had such great experiences at Safeway at Bellaire/River Oaks with both my oldest son ( 10 years ago) and now, my youngest son. Eric was so great! My son was so nervous when he first started but was quickly put at ease with his patience, kind demeanor and accesibility. Would highly recommend!

Fantastic experience: Great service, thank you for your help Lamel!

Fantastic experience: I have had a terrific experience with Safeway. My instructor Eric was patient and informative during each lesson, and I was able to make significant progress and feel more comfortable on the road. Lamel, the manager, was also incredibly helpful and responsive regarding the official processes for acquiring my license.

Fantastic experience: Before doing driving lessons with Eric, I felt unsure of how driving would go. However, the whole time, he made me feel comfortable and safe. Eric was a wonderful teacher and I learned a lot about building safe habits and becoming a more responsible driver. I highly recommend him and this institution to anyone wishing to be the best driver they can be.

Fantastic experience: Thank you Lamel for all your help.

Fantastic experience: Lamel Grant helped me a lot when I registered for the private lesson. His kindness and support are exceptional! I had a great experience and first impression at this place due to him! Plus, **my instructor, Eric, is both highly skilled and experienced. He was very calm and patient all the time, and made me feel very comfortable, which helped me a lot to learn how to drive in a short time. I would definitely recommend him!

Fantastic experience: Learning with Safeway was very beneficial and allowed me to progress in my learning very quickly. I would also like to add that Instructor Eric did an amazing job teaching me and gave very valuable information.

Fantastic experience: My son took driving lessons from Eric Friedman and he is professional, knowledgeable and a very patient driving instructor. Highly recommend.

Negative experience: No communication whatsoever! I only have one child, so I’ve never done this before, we enrolled him in the online course, and there was zero communication! When I tried to call the school it made me leave a voicemail and no one ever calls you back, it’s been a nightmare trying to figure everything out myself. I recommend just going with another school that actually values your business.

Fantastic experience: Great experience with Eric, he was super helpful and patient while teaching me how to drive!
