Continental Driving School

Fantastic experience: Although I've had my license for years, I was really nervous about driving. After three lessons with Rick, I now feel at ease behind the wheel and ready to drive confidently. He started with the basics and gradually built up to more advanced driving, including practicing on the freeway. His patience, thoroughness, and sense of humor made each lesson enjoyable. Highly recommend him to anyone looking to learn driving.

Fantastic experience: All the gratitude in the world to Ricky! He was my instructor to fulfill my permit requirements and wow, was he fantastic. He was so incredibly patient and kind, made me comfortable with driving despite my nerves, and overall a very likable person- the perfect instructor. 10/10

Fantastic experience: Rick is an amazing driving instructor who truly cares about his students success and safety on the road. His teaching style is calm, patient, and encouraging, which helped me feel at ease behind the wheel, even as a beginner. He explains everything clearly, from basic maneuvers to more advanced driving techniques, and always ensures that I understood before moving on. Rick offers constructive feedback in a way that's supportive rather than intimidating. He was flexible with scheduling and always punctual, making the process smooth and stress-free. I highly recommend him to anyone looking for a skilled and friendly instructor! Thank you, Rick!

Fantastic experience: If you’re looking for a driving instructor, Rick is the one! He’s patient, knowledgeable, and genuinely cares about your progress. He pushes you in a supportive way and makes sure you’re ready for the DMV test. I’m usually pretty timid, but Rick helped me build confidence and corrected even the smallest mistakes. His tips were super helpful and made me feel much more comfortable on the road. After just four lessons in the span of a month, I’m ready to schedule my test. I can’t thank him enough!

Fantastic experience: I passed in the first attempt including the freeway drive test. Ricardio Gaete is a great instructor, very knowledgeable, and humble. I would highly recommend to go with him for your driving lessons.

Fantastic experience: Absolutely a 100% five star experience! 10/10! I learnt driving from Rick and spent only 6 days practicing to pass the test (no joke I'm surprised too but thanks to Rick!).

I highly recommend riding with him and you will never regret! Super professional, super nice, super trustworthy!

Fantastic experience: I think Rick is a very good teacher. He’s very patient and he makes the lesson more fun when he makes jokes. He also teaches really good tricks that help with small details to help you be a better driver.

Fantastic experience: I had a a great experience with this school! Very easy to make lesson plans, and Rick the driver instructor was very kind, professional, and patient about me having 0 knowledge of driving beforehand and my slow learning! He goes at your own pace and knows how to stay calm and help you stay calm (which I very much needed). After being terrified of driving my whole life with 3 lessons I feel more comfortable behind the wheel than I did before!

Fantastic experience: I'm really glad I decided to take my lessons with continental driving school. Rick (driving instructor) was very patient and was and informative at every lesson I've taken. I highly recommend doing your lessons with them!!!

Negative experience: I went through this driving school and it was one of the weirdest experiences ever. They only accept cash and the driving instructor Rick, kept looking at women on the road and was overall just very creepy; made weird comments all the time about women and stuff like that. He also wasn't a good driver himself and didn't really teach me many things. It is a waste of money and you'll be able to find a better driving school somewhere else trust me.

Fantastic experience: I was taught by Rick, even though I was experienced behind the wheel he taught me some things that I didn't know and it made my driving skills better

Fantastic experience: Very great instructor! Walks you through everything you need to know for your test and has many different ways of teaching you the rules of the road! Would highly recommend!

Fantastic experience: Rick was a great instructor! Went from never driving to feeling comfortable on the road in 3 lessons. Highly recommend!

Fantastic experience: After not having passed my test with a previous driving school I worked with Ricky and was able to pass my test super thankful. Great service

Negative experience: Advertising incorrectly. They do not offer behind the wheel lessons to minors.

Fantastic experience: I had such a great experience with my driving instructor, Ricardo. I was definitely nervous when first starting, but Ric made driving seem so easy and taught me everything I needed to know. I appreciated his honesty and the way he demonstrated the rules of the road to me, in such a short amount of time. Thank you Ric!

Fantastic experience: I've taken two lessons so far with Ricardo. In such a short amount of time, I've learned alot from him and appreciate his honesty on the road. He focuses on the areas I feel the weakest, which in time, will make me a better driver.

Fantastic experience: I am very pleased with Rick as my driving instructor. His constant reassurance made me feel safe and comfortable every session and it definitely helped me gain my confidence in driving. He was thorough in demonstrating everything I needed to know on the road and was very calm in correcting my mistakes. Would highly recommend to others.

Fantastic experience: Took 4 lessons in total with Ricardo at this school and it was such a great experience. I had zero driving experience before taking his lessons but he takes the time to explain everything clearly, provides good and honest feedback, and lets me work on my weaknesses so that I can improve quickly. Definitely recommended!

Ricky pairs your driving time with visual aids to better help you understand the rules of the road. Ricky also does a great job at focusing on your driving weaknesses with clear results after just one lesson.

Fantastic experience: Such a great experience. I had 3 lessons w another driving school but it didn't help.

Fantastic experience: An amazing way to learn how to drive

Positive experience: So far so good on the driving part, but beware that they only take cash. They did not tell us this! However, they did tell us if we pay upfront for 3 lessons there's a discount--but then neglected to mention that would mean having $420 dollars in cash on hand when they arrived for the first lesson. We scrounged together $160 in cash so we wouldn't have to cancel in order to cover the lesson-by-lesson rate when they arrived and surprised us with this info. We asked for consideration on this, but were told we could not still use the advance pay rate. They would not allow us to cover the difference between what we've already paid for the first lesson (160) and the advance rate for 3 lessons (420). So now we are stuck with the $160 a 2 hour lesson rate because they didn't share ESSENTIAL information. Their website will not inform you of any of this and, at least for us, the office staff when we called said nothing. On the website this is the only info: **How does the payment process work?A: Expenses will depend on the package deal you buy from us. We offer "pay in full", "pay as you go" plan, and other options.** I was ticked enough by all this that I wanted to change driving schools, but my daughter liked her instructor and they provide you with the same person each lesson (or so they say--we'll see), so that wins out.

This is important for nervous Moms (my wife). Thank you Ricardo, your expertise is truly appreciated.

Fantastic experience: Strongly recommended! I talked with Sally to book my schedule. She is very responsive and thoughtful to arrange a schedule that could work the best for me.
