The Drivers Advantage

Negative experience: Wanted to support a local Belleville business. Signed my son up on the waiting list 7/29/23. Still haven't heard anything. Will seek other outlets.

Fantastic experience: Great instructor, makes learning alot easier and interactive. would recommend over other classes, extensive study guide to the point youd have to NOT be paying attention to fail! priced fairly, and completely understandable prices for retakes, questions answered in-depth and very helpful when its needed. other competitors wouldnt be able to even come close to the experience i had here. edit: suzy q or whatever made a second review trying to call out my review. hands down you have to not be paying attention to fail.. and dale 10000% would tell you what you got wrong after . they are just mad that they failed twice and had to pay more. sad when you have to write paragraphs YEARS later because you're that upset you cant drive. straight up a personal problem, not a issue with this driving school. cant even comprehend seething that hard over it, it was never that serious. stay in school kids

Fantastic experience: i had dale for my drivers ed instructor and let me tell you he is a great guy and will help you succeed and help you with anything you are confused on or need work on!

Fantastic experience: My experience with my instructor named dale was awesome!

Fantastic experience: Dale is a great instructor. He clearly knows what he is talking about and shows real life examples of violations on roads that we actually learn and drive on. He does a good mix of making sure you know what’s on the test as well as learning important aspects of actual driving. Great experience and left the class knowing far more than I came in knowing.

Fantastic experience: Dale was an amazing instructor. This was one of the best times i’ve had in a while, the teacher, the class just made it better, even while watching the boring videos we had to watch. I’ve already recommend multiple people here. Great place, great instructor.

Fantastic experience: Great driving instructor, great program. I loved having Dale as my teacher for this past month.

Fantastic experience: I can easily say that Dale is one of the best drivers ed teachers you can have. he isn’t too serious or intimidate you to do too well. he’s patient with people and he helps everyone to calm down and remain confident in themselves. And he’s goofy. Ima miss you Dale fr

Fantastic experience: This is child number 3 that has taken this class. This is an awesome company to work with. The instructor Dale goes above and beyond to teach the kids what they need to know practically and based on true story experiences

Fantastic experience: Dale, is an amazing driving instructor! He prepared me for something I never thought I would be able to do. He answered every question and broke it down for us so we could understand it better. I am very great full to have had him as my instructor. I highly recommend!!

Fantastic experience: Dale was a very good instructor! Everything was well explained and straight forward! 100% recommend!

Negative experience: I wasn't happy here. The owner grades your test, but won't let you see what questions you got wrong. If he says you didn't pass twice, he charges you more money to take the test a third time. My friend went to a different driving school, and they were more than happy to show her what questions she missed. After I posted over a year ago, there were some reviews that instantly came on. One of them seems to be a response to my review claiming you would have to not be paying attention to fail. The poster totally missed the point. The point I was making is the instructor won't let you see your test scores, so you have to take his word for it that you didn't pass. Then he charges you more money to take the test a third time. I'll leave you to draw your own conclusions as to what's going on. I've spent over a year talking to people and gathering information about this driving school. I wanted to make sure I had quite a bit of information before posting again. Here's what I came up with. Most people will have a good experience. The instructor typically chooses one person in the class to single out and give a hard time to. If you're that person, you'll be miserable. You'll be the person who'll be told you didn't pass, can't see your test scores, and be forced to pay extra to take it a third time. Once in awhile, everyone passes, but that's not the norm. Again, I'll leave you to draw your own conclusions. One family I spoke to claimed they saw the owner lose his cool right there on Main St. with a student. They couldn't hear what was being said, but the way he was acting, his facial expressions, and his hand gestures, he was totally behaving in a very unprofessional way. I wonder what the outcome was. So, it's up to you if you want to take your chances and end up as the person who will be singled out at this driving school.

Fantastic experience: My teacher was sherrie and she was great at making me understand and teaching the little things that help a lot during driving I would highly recommend

Fantastic experience: Instructor was very patient and understanding with me. And gave me outside resources to help better my driving for my road test. Would highly recommend.

Fantastic experience: I feel like I was so lucky to have Dale as my instructor. He provided me with so many things I could review with and would always answer any questions I had. he always went in-depth with specific topics we were confused about. I definitely recommend coming to drivers advantage !!

Fantastic experience: Amazing place to learn how to drive i was taught a lot

Fantastic experience: Love Dale!!! Teaches very well and explains everything so good!

Fantastic experience: Great place, didn’t waste my time at all.

Fantastic experience: Dale is absolutely amazing. He made the room feel safe and fun. He let everyone in the class have fun and yet he taught us and got us through segment 1. A little salty that he didnt bring Ashton and I to get food on our last drive, but other than that, he is an amazing instructor, and I definitely recommend this class.

Fantastic experience: I highly recommend this driving school for many reasons. First off, there is an extensive amount of training in the room which I think is very beneficial to being a great driver. Also, there is a lot of training in the vehicle, which I also think is beneficial to being a great driver. All the driving instructors are very nice and help you out a lot when you are having trouble with things you are struggling while driving the car. Overall I highly recommend this driving school and you should send your kids here to learn how to drive a car. (Also the main instructor is a current police officer). :)

Fantastic experience: It’s alright, the class is cool and real chill

Fantastic experience: Dale is the best instructor ever.

Fantastic experience: Dale is the best instructor ever.

Fantastic experience: GREAT GOOD PERFECT VERY HELPFUL

Fantastic experience: Great instructor he helped me learn a lot from this and he didn’t give up on students who needed more help

Fantastic experience: officer dale is a great driving instructor he takes no shenanigans and is great at demonstrating people slamming on the brakes. I guarantee you'll enjoy watching videos of crashes ten times. On a real note, he does everything in his power to help you understand and also he wears the same thing every day so like that's weird but ok whatever floats your boat dirty dale.

Fantastic experience: This driving school definitely taught me and my friends many things about driving. We learned to help each other during drives and get taught the real way to drives, along with all the michigan driving laws. Dale and Frank are the real G’s.. I’d also like to thank Dale for teaching Landon to drive because he couldn’t drive for the life of him when the class first started.

Fantastic experience: Frank is the best driving instructor Kaylee does not go the speed limit and runs over animals she was the worst thank you dale.

Fantastic experience: Great driving school and excellent instructor!

Fantastic experience: I loved the class! Would most definitely recommend to new drivers

Negative experience: We had a bad experience with the owner.

Negative experience: You wouldn’t think a former police officer would cause a scene and threaten you with your money on the last day of class for doing absolutely nothing besides sitting there patiently, but if you want to be embarrassed and humiliated over some schizophrenic ex police officer that likes to manipulate parents, this is the place for you. ps. thanks dirty dale!

Fantastic experience: Nice place to learn the driving skills but Sherrie is the best instructor.

Fantastic experience: got really good private lesson from sherrie...

Fantastic experience: Phenomenal training, major thanks to Mrs. Sherrie who was very insightful during training and really helped build skills you take on the road for life.

Fantastic experience: I loved it here I passed my the written and driver test taking classes here. Dave help you understand the importance Of Driving and he make it clear and you can understand what he’s talking about. Also sherry helps a lot with driver she’s the one who help me passed my road test. She helps you under what you need you work on. The 2 hours private lessons are amazing and I recommend you to take them. They make you feel comfortable and always are free when you need to ask questions.

Fantastic experience: I recently took a private instruction course with Sherrie who is one of the instructors and it was definitely one of the best decisions I've made. she tries to fill the session with as much important knowledge as possible while pushing you where you need to be to be a driver, She's kind and very good at teaching others and with her support I was able to get my license in about 3 sessions though i had some previous experience she took me to the next level and I'd highly recommend anyone to give it a try as she will walk with you through it all and does genuinely want to see you succeed and she'll know when you're ready to get your license and she'll let you know!

Fantastic experience: A good establishment, but what really made me give such a high rating was my instructor. Sherrie is such an awesome person, and she has all the qualities you’d want an instructor to have when you’re having your lesson. I was very nervous when I started, but her demeanor was always patient, calm, and professional. Sherrie was also kind and humorous as well which allowed me to become very comfortable and relaxed when I drove with her. Because of this whenever I did make mistakes while driving, instead of freaking out I was able to stay calm and understand what I did wrong and how to correct my mistake. So if you do decide to go with the driver’s advantage make sure to ask for Sherrie Watkins-you definitely won’t regret it!

Fantastic experience: I love Sherrie for private lessons. she wants nothing but the best for you and your safety. If you're looking for decently priced private driving lessons, SEE SHERRIE AT THE DRIVERS ADVANTAGE !

Fantastic experience: Wonderful driving instructors, really nice and amazing, they explain directly and clearly.

Fantastic experience: Dale is a very good driving instructor, recommend him 100%

Fantastic experience: Dale is the best instructor ever

Fantastic experience: Great driving school, great driver coaches you could have. Really recommend this school to anybody wanting to learn how to drive.

Fantastic experience: I made the best decision to come to Driver's Advantage. The driver instructor, Sherrie, was unbelievably patient with me. She will repeat things until you get them and she never shows frustration whatsoever. The techniques she uses to teach are helpful as well as easy. I definitely recommend her for everyone.

Fantastic experience: Great school and instructors

Fantastic experience: I had the privileged of having Sherrie as an instructor, and she is phenomenal!! Sherrie really takes her time to explain everything in detail with patience. I would highly recommend new drivers and those who need more practice to enroll at The Driver's Advantage!

Fantastic experience: She was the best trainer for my daughter, I was so scared, she was very calm for me an had grate patient with my daughter...so grateful.

Fantastic experience: Sherri is a good driving instructor. Thanks to be very kind and patience all the time. And your classes which encourage me while driving. I’d highly recommend her!

Fantastic experience: Sherri is perhaps the best driving instructor in the area. She’s patient, encouraging, and overall a great instructor. I’d highly recommend her!

Fantastic experience: Sherri is the best! She taught my son things that I would have never even thought of. She took her time with him and was very flexible with her time and went out of her way to accommodate our schedule. My son passed on his first try and we owe it all to Sherri.

Fantastic experience: Great place to learn essential skills for a begin nier. The instructor Sherrie did a great job teaching.

Fantastic experience: For anyone looking for an amazing experience with an attentive instructor, I recommend Sherrie in a heart beat. She was very encouraging and, helped me understand the details that go into driving. Definitely well worth it!

Fantastic experience: I have been an examiner for 17 years with Alcon Drivers Testing. I have had the opportunity to meet many instructors and have dealings with many different driving schools. Dale runs a very good driving school, your kids will get all the tools they need to build on while practicing and logging those hours. Not all driving schools do prepare your kids, lots of corruption out there. I highly recommend for sure taking your Seg 1 here! Dawn
