B&B Driving School

Negative experience: DO NOT take your skills test here. I got the same instructor both times and was failed both times. The first fail made sense because my front wheel had went up the curb. As for the second? The same instructor, an old man who never introduced himself to me, made offhanded and rude comments about my driving the entire time. At one point I was waiting at a stop sign for traffic to be clear before I turned, looking both ways multiple times. Not even 15 seconds of waiting before he says "We can wait here all day if you want." I respond with "Excuse me?" as he says "You're waiting too long. If someone was behind you they would've been honking by now." I pause, then respond "I'm just waiting for traffic to be safe. I don't want to cut anyone off." He sighs, rolls his eyes and proceeds to mark me down. Other instances include unsafe actions. He tried having me back around the curb—a curb that lead right into a busy street. I was lucky that no passing traffic hit my car on that maneuver. As for parallel parking, he tried having me do that in a one lane street—which was right up by a stoplight. The entire thing felt off to me and I felt unsafe, especially since a truck was coming up behind me. I had used my right turn signal as I lined up with the parked car next to me. I tried waiting for the truck behind me to drive around me (what you're supposed to do), and that's when the instructor chimed in yet again with "what are you *doing?*" I explain to him why I'm waiting, and he says "No. No, don't worry about him. You have the right to park." The truck had to have thought that I was simply turning right at the light, thanks to the way I was set up for this maneuver. As I began to back up, the truck driver gives me an angry look and starts backing up to properly give me room. By then I was breaking down from that moment as well as the instructor's previous comments. I knew I was in no condition to drive like that. I'm crying right in front of the instructor and stop the maneuver to instead drive back to the school to end the test. He seems flabbergasted over the fact, and once again, exclaims "what are you doing?" So I respond, "I'm in no condition to drive while I'm breaking down like this, I'm sorry. I'm just going to drive back to the school." He gets snippy yet again and clearly doesn't care about my wellbeing at that time. The 2nd time, I got a 79, which was the nail in the coffin for me. I instead tested somewhere else in the valley today and had a much better experience. Finally passed with an 86, and the instructor only ever talked to give me directions and to review my results once the test was over. I felt respected and felt that I was tested fairly, let alone this instructor didn't put me in dangerous situations like the one at B&B did. TLDR; please do NOT test at B&B on Sullivan... Unless you want a rude instructor who makes comments and doesn't care about basic traffic safety.

Negative experience: Would Not Recomend B&B driving school to anyone wanting to pass there driver test. The driving instructor I had who was an older gentleman (I forget his name), seemed to be going out of his way to fail me and mark off points, he gave me no leeway whatsoever, and failed me twice, it's clear to me that what they really care about is the money rather than seeing people pass there test, as I had to pay 55$ twice for a driving test being failed both times for the dumbest reasons, I know I'm a good driver which is why I scheduled a driving test with interface driving school and passed on the first time easily there with another driving instructor, which just proves to me that it's not my driving skills that are at fault in this case but the fault of this overly strict driving instructor at B&B 1/5 stars

Negative experience: Hopefully they don’t leave slanderous reviews on my business :). As defamation is a civil court thing. B&b if you leave a review on my page I’ll use a p.I. Link the review and sue you. Anyways My gf used b&b & past her written, paid for the driven. When she went they said because she had a leg brace, very minor brace for an old surgery on her leg which was years ago. She walks fine does everything fine, never has had any issues interns of mobility and safety. they saw her brace and refused to test her. They then called the dmv and said she’s an unsafe driver, so she just got her permit and now if she doesn’t pass her driving test in 1 month her license gets suspended. Lol good way to discriminate against the handicap specially some one who isn’t really even handicapped that bad lol. Also thanks for booting her from all the driving school. Not sure how you would know she was an unsafe driver when she never even took a driving test with you. We’ll be calling managers at B&B & talking to the dmv about who filed the complaint so we have PROOF, discrimination and defamation are heavy things especially when a license is some one’s livelihood

Negative experience: The teacher is purposely failing me. I have studied so much and all my answers would be correct but he marks them as wrong. He says he has DOL books with him but he sends me out to go to the DOL of Spokane to get it. I am giving the legally right answers but he says they are wrong and I am done with b and b either they get their stuff together and replace him or actually help us see what we are doing wrong

Negative experience: The amount of kids they pile into the online class multiplied by the crazy high tuition, you would think they could spend some money on their internet connection so they can share screen correctly. The lady running the class says she isn’t wearing glasses so she can’t read some material. There’s been a student with his hand raised for 20 min and she can’t see it. This is such an overpriced scam of a business.
