Defensive Driving Academy, LLC

Fantastic experience: One of the best driving schools in Manassas, couldn't have even thought of getting a second opinion to get my permit. The lady at the desk is very sweet and helpful . If I have to ever tell someone a school for driving it be this one!!

Fantastic experience: Good driving teachers and classes enjoy the people there.

Fantastic experience: It was very good class very chill the lady is super nice and flexible so don’t be afraid to ask questions or anything and I had a guy teacher to and he was also very chill and they really help u know what u already know fr but other than that they make the time seem to go by and that’s what I liked.

Fantastic experience: I highly recommended Defensive Driving Academy, LLC. They really help with any question or concern that you have about DMV, Uma is very friendly and makes sure we got the help that we need. This is the best school in the are.

Fantastic experience: So nice and helpful good choice

Fantastic experience: Our daughter got her driver’s permit in September 2021, and have been driving under our supervision since. However, we noticed some hesitation in her confidence on 234 and the highway. Our neighbors had recommended Defensive Driving Academy, LLC. This was the best decision EVER! After a few days with the instructor, we noticed an immediate improvement in her confidence and skills. It’s cost effective, and worth the money! We have no complaints at all. The best part is the personal approach provided by the instructor and the feedback on her driving abilities. Also, she was able to take the road test with the same instructor, which also reduced some anxiety about being evaluated while driving. 100% recommendation from the Howard’s Family in Meadowbrooks Woods.

Fantastic experience: They were super knowledgeable in many of my families driving related needs- it was definitely a one stop shop for us! Had two of my teens and a friend’s daughter successfully complete their behind the wheel training and licensed. The instructor was very knowledgeable and professional as I mentioned - my kids enjoyed their classes. So glad we decided to go with them compared to other options locally-from our friends’ experiences. It’s all about the service, experience and knowledge for us because after research, prices were all comparable locally. So grateful for their candidness and hospitality! Definitely recommend - and we’ll continue to go to them for all our driving related services going forward.

Fantastic experience: It was very nice judgement free 7 days of just driving with no issues simple easy process and was helped out to get a DMV appointment as fast as possible very good and friendly service would recommend to anyone in need of a license soon very professional as well

Fantastic experience: If you are looking for a driving academy- look no further! This is the best driving company I’ve ever used- i wish i knew about them years ago! Umalkhayr and Abdelrizak are so sweet and so professional. I used this company for my little brother, who was so nervous to drive and Abdelrizak made him feel so comfortable and excited to learn. He was able to get his license in a reasonable time and they have such great prices! All my brother’s friends used Defensive Driving Academy as well and had great experiences as well! 10/10- would highly recommend!

Fantastic experience: I took a class with them a month ago to get my points back up after several tickets and I was very pleased with my experience. The instructor was very professional and pleasant to work with. She answered all my questions and responded to my emails very promptly. I would definitely recommend my friends and family to use them in the future.

Fantastic experience: Uma and her husband were amazing at helping me get my drivers license! Very kind and great at helping you retain the knowledge to excel in your driving test! Would highly recommend 100% this driving school to everyone.

Fantastic experience: Absolutely loved this driving school! I was pretty much a new driver when I started, and I signed up for some driving lessons. I was pretty nervous when I started, but now feel much more confident on the road than the beginning! Ali was my driving instructor and he was great! He was super calm the whole time when I was learning and wasn't ever rude. Loved him as an instructor! I highly recommend this driving school over others like Tala. Uma and Ali actually care if you are a safe driver and will do anything to help you succeed. After I finished the course, Uma told me to text her if I have any questions. They are easy to talk to and are highly professional. They have classes during this pandemic too!

Fantastic experience: This was a really good place to take my Defensive drivers course it was very informative.It gave you everything you needed to be successful on the road my instructor was very personable and professional.

Fantastic experience: I highly recommend this place to everyone. I had to attend class in the midst of Covid19. I found them on DMV website. The location was a little hard to find, but all of the local businesses were friendly and showed me the way. I was very happy to find them still working after having taken the proper precautions. Uma, the instructor had decided to give one-on-one classes for all who needed it. I was able to make an appointment right away. She was kind, knowledgeable and thorough. She took the time to explain everything to me in as much detail as I wanted. Allowing me to ask questions and providing useful information in a very personable and friendly manner. The time seemed to fly by in her class, which may be due to how funny the instructor was. Uma also gave me tips to navigate the DMV process and system. She told me I could contact her in the future if I had any need for advice. I cannot stress enough how highly I recommend the Defensive Driving Academy.

Fantastic experience: Ms Uma, very amazing and helpful kind women. If your stuck and don't know where to go to get your license back. She can help you when u have hit a wall. There's always a route.

Fantastic experience: I'm really impressed with this class. I've never actually been intrigued to talk for 5-8 hours instead of being bored the whole time. The instructor Uma made it very personable and related everything we needed to know to our own personal situations. I needed a last minute class to bring to court and I made the appointment and got in that week. Some places won't let you be 1 min late and she actually let me in a few mins past time which was the highlight of my day. Super convenient! The instructor Uma was super friendly and very informative. She also made sure that the reasons we were there would benefit us to our own personal needs -court/points. She made sure to make the class actually entertaining even though the videos for these classes are always from the 1950's. The class was so good time pasted by quicker than I thought it would - definitely recommend.
