Premier Driving Academy: Reviews
Fantastic experience: My daughter took her driving test with Dan on April 19th. She said he was very nice, did not make her feel nervous and before she left with her passing certificate, he told her a few pointers and told her that she drives very well. Have 4 more kids to out through drivers training and I won't use anyone else.
Fantastic experience: I took my road test earlier today and my instructor was Dan, he’s awesome and gives great feedback at the end on what to work on
Negative experience: One of the instructors were screaming at me and being kinda rude. I would choose an instructor wisely. My instructor was David Osterlande
Negative experience: Got my license on 9/11. Save your money & spare your child the stress. If you're taking your test, you know how to safely get onto an off-ramp. NOT THIS INSTRUCTOR. The speed limit on the ramp was 35mph, I had my foot of the break, slowing down properly. Not SLAMING on the break like he apparently wanted. I if had slowed down any faster I would have had 1-2 cars IN MY TRUNK. They were just getting on the ramp, like me. BARELY ON IT. He knew that. If I had listened, someone could have gotten injured. Before hiring someone, check if they should be driving themselves. Nothing you say to respond to this will justify this safety issue. If you do respond, give me an answer WITHOUT bringing up my test. I know I could have done better on parking, but it's irrelevant in this situation as we were on the road & it has nothing to do with my on-road (actual driving) skills. I did amazing besides being paranoid his instructions would get me into an accident.
Fantastic experience: I'd recommend these guys to anyone who needs to take their drivers test.
Fantastic experience: Took my own driving test here! The test proctor is just about the nicest guy you'll ever meet, very clear and calm and helpful in his instructions. If you don't have your own vehicle, they'll rent you one of their cars for the exam (I think it was like $60), and they're usually able to fit you in for the test without more than a couple days' notice. Certainly one of the best driving test places in metro Detroit!
Fantastic experience: PREMIER DRIVING ACADEMY IS THR BEST!!! OUR EXAM PROVIDER WAS EXCEPTIONAL. IF YOU LIVE IN SE MI USE THIS PLACE!! TOP NOTCH!!!
Fantastic experience: Very pleased with my daughters road test experience this past August. He was very calm and professional with her.
Thanks Heather. We appreciate it. Thank you for allowing us to road test your daughter. Drive safe.
Fantastic experience: Did my motorcycle road test here today great people
Thanks Preston! And May I add you were very prepared and polite. Pleasure working with you.
Fantastic experience: My daughter had her road test with Dan today and he made the whole experience wonderful from start to finish. My daughter was so nervous and he calmed her right down and made her feel relaxed for her test. I would recommend them for a road test to anyone! Thank you Dan!
Thanks David. You did a great job preparing her. She was on of the best tests this month. Drive safe.
Fantastic experience: I must say I was all nerves for my daughter Kayla today during her road test but Dave O. was amazing. He was soft spoken and was very patient with her. Dave made my daughter feel comfortable behind the wheel during her test and was very clear in his directions to her. Thank you Dave for doing what you do as it must be very stressful to be dealing with so many new drivers on a daily basis. I would definitely recommend premier for anyone taking a future road test.
Fantastic experience: Instructor explained everything throughly and respectful. Highly recommend!!
Thanks Brooke. You did a fantastic job. Obviously had a great teacher. Drive safe.
Fantastic experience: Dave was my instructor he was polite, straight forward and easy to drive with I paid my 60$ and showed up 20+ mins early and he was already there waiting and ready
Thanks Dakota! We love Dave, he is always on time and organized. Please drive safe, and if you ever have any questions, please calll us.
Negative experience: The guy on the phone was so rude to me for not wanting to take the test... Dave why are you so mean :(
Fantastic experience: I highly recommend Premier Driving Academy, I took my road test with Dan. He was very patient and helpful, and at the end explained what I needed to improve on to be a safe driver. If I hadn't passed and needed to retake the test I would've gone through him again!
Thanks Mike, I know you’ll do great. Remember, the more you do, the easier it gets. Appreciate your kind words.
Fantastic experience: I had Dave and I was comfortable the test was $110 but I did use the rental and Dave was a really nice guy to me. I would recommend anyone to go here
Negative experience: Just because someone 15 minutes (not being familiar with area) late doesn’t mean a person have to be very rude and unprofessional. By him being an older man I thought he would be more humbler and understanding. I wouldn’t recommend my dog to this location…
We respect all of our customers. When you come that late, it really effects all of the clients who have scheduled their tests that day after you and have made arrangements with their schedule. We’re very sorry you missed your appointment.
Fantastic experience: I highly recommend this place to take your road test! I came today taking this test very nervous but Mr. Pete was very patient and understanding and explains everything to make me feel comfortable. He gives such great advises and fair judgment throughout the process. Overall, my experience here is amazing. I will recommend them to anyone.
Fantastic experience: Pete is the goat
We love Pete. He’s very thorough and he explains everything.
Fantastic experience: I took my road test with Dan. I can say honestly, he's a man of no other. Very Discipline about safety first. He was very calm and understanding. Words can't explain how greatful I was to have him as my road test instructor. God blessing.
Thank you. You are very kind.
Fantastic experience: I was very nervous for my test, Pete was absolutely awesome! Would totally recommend going to this school ! Thanks again !
Fantastic experience: I just took my road test for the first time this week and I passed it!! I had such a good experience taking this test here with Pete he is a great instructor very kind and helpful i was nervous at first but glad he was there to advise me. he explains everything to make you feel comfortable! They even have rental cars that you can use if you are unable to bring a car in!
Negative experience: So Dave gives my daughter a road test I'm in back seat he clearly tells my daughter to make a right then tells her to make another right so basically we went around the corner of the driving school parking lot,ok so he tells her to park when we arrive and tells us she fails cause I told her to make a left so for the mothers please!records while in the car even tho me and my daughter two sets of ears are better than one Dave probably meant to say left but not going to take responsibility that he really FAIL THE TEST!! LIKE I told him enjoy that $110.00
Fantastic experience: I just got my road test today~ and I passed. The examiner understands my circumstances when I said my English is not my first language. So whenever he told me to do anything (change lanes, turn, speed limit,..) he explained to me really carefully. No rushing at all.
Thanks so much. We love Pete. He’s very thorough and patient. Please drive safe and call us if you have any questions.
Fantastic experience: My son went here to take his road test and Pete was awesome! He was patient and fair. Initially my son was very nervous upon arrival but Pete kept open communication with my son and I. I would recommend 100 times if I could!
Thank you so much for the review Ms Tolliver. We also love Pete. He’s a very kind and fair person. Good luck to you and your son driving. Be safe.
Negative experience: I wouldn’t send my worst enemy here. The husband and wife instructors are the rudest most condescending people I have ever spoken to. They kept arguing that they never got my emails and then I overheard the husband say oh they’re in my spam folder. They didn’t apologize to me at all that it was their fault for not checking their spam folder. I did everything that was instructed but still got an attitude and an argument. Im glad I got to see their true colors before my kid ever went to their first class. These people should not be around children!
Fantastic experience: I had a road test with Dan today, super chill and professional, even though I messed up a bit he was there to help out and didn’t put pressure on me, Dan is a good road tester if you plan on doing your road test here
Thanks Angelo. You’re a good driver. Be safe.
Negative experience: I called to schedule a road test on a motorcycle. Unfortunately the day slipped my mind, work called in early and I missed my appointment, because of the nature of my work I'm on call 24/7 and the early hours I was not able to call and cancel, and could not miss work,. Apologized and was going to reschedule and offer compensation for their time wasted. Instead I get hung up on and told to go somewhere else. Which is no big deal that I will do. It is very unprofessional to hang up on a potential customer, even under the circumstances. Being in a business myself that deals with customers/clients daily for thousands more than a road test I understand this. Unprofessional. Regardless of any situation. We can rectify it or the review will stay, that affects my life in no way. seems you would much rather argue any ways.
Fantastic experience: My instructor was Dave and he was awesome he definitely eased my nerves and he passed me!! Thank you again Dave definitely would recommend you to anyone!
Fantastic experience: The instructor Daved was awesome, he really helped me calm and went above and beyond.
Fantastic experience: My son took his driving test with a patient professional staff member. 5 stars!
Fantastic experience: Used for a road test. Pete was the instructor. He is very clear with instructions and professional, I will recommend him to everyone needing a road test.
Fantastic experience: Great place for a road test and any type of instruction you may need. I attended both segment 1 & 2 with Premier, and absolutely loved it. They really do their best to teach you all that you need to know. And recently, I just conducted my road test with Dan; he was great, attentive, and a really cool guy. Highly recommend Premier for any teens out there looking for a safe and credible driving school.
Thanks Richard. You did a great job today.
Fantastic experience: The instructor was very informative and very nice and patient with my granddaughter I would recommend him again
Fantastic experience: Nice, Professional People..
Fantastic experience: My Daughter's just concluded the segment 1 with Mr. and Mrs. K. They are both extremely respectful, professional, really exceeding our expectations. All the many, many feedbacks they gave me about my daughter (in class, behind the wheel, what they were expecting from her in the written test, etc) were very helpful and, beyond making me proud of her, brought me confidence on their job and on the grand finale we got: SHE PASSED! Tks Mr. and Mrs. K!! God Bless you!
Thanks Carlos, we love Mr. and Mrs. K. They are very professional and love teaching. Drive safe and please don't hesitate to call us with questions.
Fantastic experience: Easy instructions to follow, friendly service. Stress free road tests.
Negative experience: Failed my daughter while doing parallel parking while she was inside the cones. She did very well. He said it’s because she was suppose to bag back some more. Took her whole $90. I wouldn’t recommend this place. They just want your money.
Fantastic experience: Instructor was great!
Fantastic experience: My girlfriend came here to take her driving test and Dan was amazing. He was very professional and spoke clearly. She wasn’t nervous with him. He was very honest and nice. Overall the best place we could have chose. He even let her use her car even though the heat didn’t work and it was like 80 degrees out so she could save an extra $30 and not have to use the cars they provide. I recommend everyone and anyone get tested by Dan. He is the best.
Fantastic experience: My husband used premier for a motorcycle road test and both my older children used them for motor vehicle. My girlfriend also used them for her daughter with Aspergers. They were great. The instructors were kind, relaxed, informative. I highly recommend them.
Fantastic experience: I took the road test and the instructor was very nice and made me feel comfortable. He had a great energy. I passed the first time and he gave constructive criticism in a very kind manner. I highly recommend this place. I know a lot of road test places are a scam but this one is not one of those places.
Fantastic experience: The instructors here are awesome! I would recommend anyone to come here to practice driving and take the test. Pete was very honest and patient with me. I am more comfortable on the road now.
Fantastic experience: Pete was my daughters instructor..very patient man I recommend this driving school.
Negative experience: I would give zero stars if I could. Go anywhere else to take your road test. The instructor Dan was horrible, I passed the parking portion with flying colors. But he failed me because I hit two cones!! You’re able to aquire 6 points! I got 2! He should definitely not be giving road tests. He doesn’t know what he’s doing at all. What a joke! Beforehand I took my road test two times with Pete. He was even worse!!! The first time I knew I passed but he failed me because “I didn’t look both ways at some intersections when I did! He wouldn’t have known because he was too busy looking down, marking things on the score sheet. You can pass with a score of 25 anything over that is a fail. And I got a 28! Then the next time was just as bad as the first, so I passed the parking portion like before. And went on the road, throughout the whole drive I could feel the car pulling me to the right. Which means the tires need to be realigned!!! How could you have teenagers take a road test in a car that isn’t even safe!!!! I’m just shocked at how horribe the instructors are at Premier. It’s time to hire some new ones. Because these old guys don’t know what they’re doing. PETE AND DAN THINK ABOUT RETIREMENT! I will never, ever! go back here to take my road test again. These fools wasted my time & my money!!!
Fantastic experience: Pete the instructor was very polite, instructive and helpful.
Fantastic experience: Good place to get your driver's test done :) The instructor, Keith, was helpful and thorough. He talked a little too much lol as I was waiting for him to sign my certificate after the test was over he went on a loooong 20-minute story. But, other than that, he was great. They have cones set up in the parking lot 24/7 (except on Sundays -- it's at a church) so you can practice your front, rear and parallel parking, which I appreciated. I recommend Premier Driving Academy.
Fantastic experience: Keith tested me today. He was very professional and pleasant. I recommend this school for driver's training if you feel you're not ready. I know many people to use this school for motorcycle and vehicle road tests. Thank you Keith for your service and kindness today.
Fantastic experience: Ok I think his name is Pete but I'm pretty sure I accidentally called him Steve (oops!) but anyway the tester was very nice. I ended up being two hours late to the test because I took two buses out to the wrong church (with the same name). He waited two whole hours for me to get there and when I arrived I was scared he was going to be really angry but he ended up being the chillest, friendliest and most patient tester I've driven with (I failed the test twice prior). But yeah I would DEFINITELY recommend this place for your road test, he was awesome!
Negative experience: Absolutely horrible. Got into a car accident caused by one of the teachers and got a concussion because of it. They never called to check on me or my family and the instructor never asked about my conditions either. When I came back to the class after missing 3 days due to the instructor’s misbehalf , the instructor told me that I need to retake the class.
Fantastic experience: Great place to take your road skills test. The tester was very fair and let me know what I did wrong. Would 100% recommend.
Fantastic experience: My driver instructor was very helpful and nice would recommend him to anyone. Thank you for the experience so happy i have my liscence.
Fantastic experience: Pete was awesome!! He was very nice and didnt make me feel pressured behind the wheel!! I very recommend you going there to take your road test!! Thank you pete again!! Its me Gus!!
Fantastic experience: Pete was very nice! didn't make me feel nervous at all. Very smooth experience. Would recommend!
Fantastic experience: Would recommend!!! Shout out to Pete my instructor very nice and Patient
Fantastic experience: Excellent school. Instructors are kind and patient and dedicated to helping the students learn. I have had experience with other schools and this one is the best!
