Professional Driving Systems

Negative experience: Sadly the registration process is horrible, and I am never successful at getting my sons into this program. Is something going on, under radar, that allows others quicker registration success? We were FAST! So, others are surely told or given some sort of easier way to register. I write this review out of disappointment. I have tried for years to get my 2 sons in for training. PDS only opens up slots at a particular time and day for training that is 5-6 months out. So each time I set my alarm and each time I have two of us on laptops to try and get them registered. Each time, in under 6 minutes, all 5 time slots are grabbed up before I can submit the forms. It is absolutely asinine. They referred us to some place else, with those people answering the phone and telling us that PDS keeps referring people to them, but they do not teach drivers ed. What happened to drivers Ed in schools? I mean, they took God out of schools, took away cursive writing, and drivers Ed. Shaking my head in frustration. So, whoever was fortunate to grab slots and take away our chance...enjoy. Stay safe on the roads and pray that I will eventually (before they turn 30! Lol) get trained.

Fantastic experience: Highly recommend PDS driving school. Every staff member is great to work with and they equip the children with skills needed. From everyday to maneuverability. Our BTW instructor was great and feedback is provided after every lesson. There is a list in the office of what will be covered in each lesson. Yes, downtown Dayton is one of them, and our kiddo said it was the most stressful out of all the drives. They also send a list of what to practice with your children beforehand to help them be better acclimated to what is coming. Thank you for preparing our kiddo for the roads!

Positive experience: My 15yo really enjoyed the classroom learning and would often verbally refer back to what he learned while we practiced driving. The driving portion is the reason for the 4 star review. I completely understand the need to develop adequate driving skill, but these kids are not going to be master drivers at the end of 2 driving sessions and 25 hours with parents. My son was taken downtown Dayton for his 3rd driving lesson and covered in sweat when I picked him up. To me, that’s the most difficult driving a person can do. As an adult, I avoid downtown and I have 25+ years experience. I was just trying to get my teen comfortable on city and country roads, with maneuverability and parking prior to testing. It will take more than 6 months experience in my opinion for those more complicated driving skills like downtown, but the instructor made me feel like I was failing by not practicing in those ridiculously high stress areas in the first 3 months.

Fantastic experience: Amazing course. Adding on skid control for your kids is a live saver. Please send your kids here

Negative experience: We were first to enroll exactly on 10 30 am but it’s hack in system for all slot within 1 min we got 404 or form disabled. This review is for enrolling experience .
