Idaho Driving School: Reviews
Fantastic experience: ★★★★★ 5/5 (but like… only because I can’t give 500) If you’re not looking for the best time of your life while learning how to drive, then PLEASE avoid Rob at all costs. Seriously. Who wants a driving instructor who actually makes parallel parking less terrifying and throws in sarcasm smoother than a freshly paved road?? Not me, obviously. Rob is way too good at what he does—like HELLOOO, who told him to be helpful and hilarious?? Pick a struggle please sir. Every lesson was filled with just the right mix of “if you were thinking, you wouldn’t have thought that” energy and “beautiful work, this is why you are the favorite” support. It’s like being roasted and mentored all at once. A literal life skill and a comedy show?? Again, too much. Honestly, I wouldn’t even dare to put a price on his class—because it’s priceless, duh. The sarcasm? Chef’s kiss. The encouragement? Unmatched. The driving skills? He practically downloaded them into my brain. (Now I critique my own parents haha!) So yeah, if you like laughing while learning, feeling safe behind the wheel, and not getting bored while figuring out roundabouts—Rob’s your guy. But beware: you will miss him when it’s over. IDAHO DRVING SCHOOL FOR THE WIN! (Rob likes powdered donuts, and I’m the favorite so if he tells you one day that you are the favorite, he is lying).
Thanks Sophia, aka Girl in the back.You were easy to teach. Drive Safe!
Fantastic experience: This is for you Rob. -Ddevon (Lliam) (Or since you don't care about names, 16)
Thanks LLiam, Hope you are doing well.
Fantastic experience: Best driving school. People shouldn't be leaving bad reviews. If you left a bad review, you should be sorry. Actually, "Don't be sorry, just be better." -Rob
Right! You are better, Keep it up!
Fantastic experience: I door dashed penara bread here I and it came just on time got the new spicy fiesta chicken but only half because I'm it was really good but the delivery probably wasn't good with English because he didn't do anything on my special request but I did only tip 0.50$ because I didn't have that much money and he only said I'm here and me leave at door maybe he was a cave man also make sure you watch out for rob he is mean but it's funny and Bella went to sage
Very Relavent! and almost true. drive safe!
Fantastic experience: Rip to Scott he was the best (he’s not dead but he was a really fun instructor) Rob is fun. They have a no fail policy!
Hey Jalesa, Thanks for the Review! and thanks for coming to class.
Fantastic experience: i love this school with my whole heart. the 1 star reviews are just mad because their kids are bad drivers and cant admit it. thank you rob for creating and safe and humorous environment!!!!
Thanks for the Review, Good Luck and Drive safe!
Fantastic experience: This was the best experience i have ever had in my entire life. it is the utmost respectable driving school. if anything they should charge more. this is truly the driving school of the high society. the driving teacher robb reminded me of adam sandler.
Thanks for the review Kolton, drive safe and good look,
Fantastic experience: In this class I remember being super nervous at the start of it, I ended up reading the whole book the first week of my school starting. I wasn't exactly aware that I was 17 and could just take the test. However I'm glad my mom did sign me up for in-person class. The class normally woke me up because we had the class 4-9:30 pm. They always made the class interactive, gave out treats, and made amazing jokes. This is probably one of most funniest classes I've had in my life.
Thanks, Tamya. hope you are doing well!
Fantastic experience: Idaho driving schools was the best driving school I could have learned how to drive at. They had outstanding instructors, and I learned so much.
Thank you so much, just noticing your review. Hope you are doing well.
Fantastic experience: I went to Idaho driving school not knowing how to drive and after I was done with my drives, I felt confident and safe. My instructor Rob was there for me every every step of the way and gave me advise on how I could improve my driving on every drive I had. He made me feel comfortable behind the wheel and made the experience fun as well! I recommend Idaho Driving School for anyone who is starting to learn and wants to learn how to drive safely as well as defensively. Thanks Rob!
Hey Cynthia, It has been a while. you were a great student. glad you came.
Fantastic experience: Instructors are very nice, helpful, and experienced. I learned a lot from my lessons here and would for sure recommended them.
Hello, Thanks so much for you kind words. Drive safe! Ps, who is this?
Fantastic experience: Rob and his team are great. They've taught all my kids.
Thank you!
Fantastic experience: Bobby and his team are great. 4th kid is going through drivers ed and everything has been great. We really like Jerry too.
Thanks, 4 kids down, 2 more to go,
Fantastic experience: My child enjoys the classes and instructors.
Thank you!
Fantastic experience: The kids love it! Fun yellow cars and engaging instructors. The kids seem to be more interested and better prepared for the road than some programs. They let guardians know if their kids may need additional help with some potential trouble-spots based on the in-car experience. Good bunch of people! Highly recommended.
So fun, Thanks
Fantastic experience: The owner is such a great teacher, he is really fun and i really enjoyed driving with his school. His jokes are amazing and he is really engaging with the kids. He really wants you to pass, doesn't just try to get it over with. Best driving school you will find in Idaho.
Thanks Petra, you are awesome! Drive safe!
Fantastic experience: My son just finished his drivers training this morning. He is autistic, and we weren’t really sure how things would go for him. I let Rob know the situation beforehand and he was an amazing instructor for him! Definitely went the extra mile to make sure he was ready to go—even had me go on his last drive so I could see what he needed to work on. I 100% recommend Idaho Driving School. This is my second child going through this program and I wouldn’t go anywhere else. Thanks Rob!
Thanks for sending him Emily. He was great! Always so positive.
Fantastic experience: Never going anywhere else! Professional, kind & funny. Appreciated everything about our experience.
Thank you so much! Just figuring things out.
Fantastic experience: Great knowledge and explanation!
Thanks for review!
Fantastic experience: They did an amazing job educating 2 of my children. Their staff I'd professional, and a pleasure to work with. Their cars are top notch, and the variety they have made my kids excited for their next drive. I highly recommend Idaho driving school if you are looking for an amazing, down to earth relaxed driving school.
Thanks Andy!
Fantastic experience: My daughter graduated from here. Cool cars and fun instructors make it easy to sell. Passed with flying colors
Thanks for the review.
Fantastic experience: These guys are awesome! Don't go elsewhere! We tried a different school with one if my kids because it was closer to my house. I'm so sad I did. It didn't even compare. They failed in almost every way. Choose Idaho Driving School. It's worth the investment!!!
Thanks for the review, Glad you liked our class. Let me know if we can help you with anything in the future.
Fantastic experience: We love Idaho Driving School! Great teachers and awesome cars. They were very great with scheduling and getting us passed very quickly. Best driving school around!!!
Thanks for the review,
Fantastic experience: What’s not to love? The cars are way fun for the kids, the education is priceless and the overall experience is unforgettable. I took drivers ed here years ago and I still remember how fun the class and driving was! Plus, going to fast lane for the final class is awesome! Going anywhere else would lessen the experience.
Right!
Fantastic experience: They were very helpful and gave info that helped out not just me but my brothers as well and I'm very grateful
Sorry I haven’t responded sooner, Thank you so much.
Fantastic experience: After being out-of-state for the past four years, and upon returning, I realised that traffic and driving patterns had changed in Boise and after interviewing a few driver's ed companies, I settled on the Idaho Driving School for my teen. She did not have to take the class, but as THAT mom who does not leave anything to chance, I enrolled her, and it was the best decision ever!! You get more than you pay for. The curriculum is comprehensive and thorough; the additional information and personal driving experiences shared really helped my child understand how multi-dimensional driving is. My teen enjoyed every class, made new friends, and loved the in-car experience!! I am grateful to the entire team for their investment, knowledge, and expertise. I highly recommend this company for all new drivers, teen and adult. Thank you, thank you, thank you!!
Thanks Bianca! We love what we do!
Fantastic experience: Your search is over. Seriously. We made the mistake of using a different "school" when we started our daughters out on the process of learning to drive. We were extremely fortunate to find and switch to Idaho Driving School. Rob and his team worked to undo the previous instructor's damage, making our kids more confident drivers, comfortable with the sometimes unwritten "rules of the road", and knowledgeable about Idaho driving laws. This is an actual school. Your kids learn to drive-- and they will have fun while doing so. Worth. Every. Penny.
Thanks Darce, Glad you had a good experience. You have awesome kids, I enjoyed teaching them how to drive.
Negative experience: The course was a HUGE waste of time. It is required to spend 45 minutes on each unit in which I skipped ALL, I repeat this for emphasis, ALL of the curriculum, yet aced every single test. It is very sad that they do not cater to those with common sense these days in which sadly, there are very few. It would be of great convenience to have some sort of pre test at the beginning so that you get the curriculum needed rather than being treated like you were born only several weeks ago. I am very disappointed and also angry at this meaningless system being held in place. I along with many others skipped through EVERYTHING and aced EVERYTHING! My time was stolen and TIME IS MONEY. - Gavin Bedegi
Gavin,
There are 4 online drivers ed courses approved in Idaho and we are able to complete the in-car instruction for all of them. I was not able verify that you completed any of them and we have not completed the in-car instruction for anyone with your name. So either you took an unapproved online course, took the course with another driving school or you used a fictitious name to avoid responsibility for your negative review.
If taken seriously, all of the of the online courses are designed to give you the tools you need to become a safe defensive driver and then we reinforce what you learn online during in-car instruction. While it may be possible to click through the slides, it would be extremely unlikely that you or anyone else would “ace” every exam and pass the course. All of the courses have protections in place to prevent students from doing just that.
If you were not happy with the course and contacted me directly, we could have transferred you to any of the other approved online courses or to our live in-person class or as a last resort, I would have refunded your money.
At this point, I would recommend that you confirm what online course you completed and what school completed your in-car instruction and then go back to online class you took, read all of the slides, watch all of the videos, compete all of the assignments and take it seriously. This is the only class you have taken so far in your life that you will need for the rest of your life and I repeat, it should be taken seriously!
Finally, to those who read Google reviews, if you are not satisfied or unhappy with my course for any reason; please contact me directly and if we are not able to resolve your concerns, then feel free to post your review but please don’t waste your time or mine be honest and use your real name.
Fantastic experience: This was the best class ever. I’m truly sad that it’s ending. I have bonded with all of the instructors and all of the students very fast and will miss everyone very much, especially rob he is great. I have never once bin bored in this class and was entertained the whole time. The drives were fun and I felt comfortable and wasn’t nervous at all. I highly recommend this place, you make great friends, get close with instructors, and have a great time and learn lots. Idaho driving school deserves all of these 5 stars every bit. Goodbye I will miss everyone.
Thanks Carson,
That was a great class,
Fantastic experience: I was a student of robs class and it was great. I am mainly writing this so he will show it in the last day of the next course. All the instructors taught me very well and made sure I understood everything to be a safe driver. If your going to learn how to drive this is the place to go!
Thanks Brooke,
I will be sure to do that!
Fantastic experience: The best driving instructors in Boise.
Thanks
Fantastic experience: My daughter so very nervous about learning how to drive everyone there made her Feel very comfortable and it wasn’t too long she was loving the class they took the time and helped her Really understand the safety Ness Of driving a vehicle on the road. I have two more children growing up and they will also attend the school ..
Thanks Dan,
Fantastic experience: I am so happy I decided to enroll my daughter here. Not only did she get a top notch education, but she also loved going to class. The instructors made it fun and Rob worked with our crazy schedule to make sure my daughter got her in car instruction completed. Well worth the money!
Thanks Anna, Kate was a pleasure to have in class.
Fantastic experience: Idaho Driving School is awesome!! The schedules are easy to understand and they try their best to accommodate you. Rob is the best!! The information isn’t always interesting to learn, but Rob makes it fun and entertaining!! Thanks so much for the awesome experience!!
Thanks Emma!
Fantastic experience: This school is the best driving school in the United States and the world rob and all the other instructors are the best teachers and will help you learn without too much stress and make it fun to do everything about the class is amazing and all the cars are awesome and make doing drivers ed here more exciting
You are too much, Thanks
Fantastic experience: i would like to say the school is great the teacher is amazing hes funny and makes class interesting
Thanks!
Fantastic experience: Best Drivers Ed class/school out there! I would highly recommend and encourage this school to any and all youth. Rob engages the class. He provides an experience that allows kids to enjoy the experience but also teaches them in depth about the safety and dangers of driving. I am currently enrolled and am having a blast while also earning my permit. They not only provide an wonderful education and experience but also have really cool selection of cars. Thank you Rob for making it such an amazing experience to earn a drivers permit!
Thank you for the kinds words Ammon. It was great having you in class!!!!
Fantastic experience: Teachers are amazing!! And classes are easy and fun to take
Thanks Hunter,
Drive safe!
Fantastic experience: The best driving school ever. I have got my permit a few days ago and it was a lot of fun. All their instructors where really nice, funny and could explain all kind of questions in the classroom as well as in the car. In this school u will learn how to drive in a nice atmosphere. So when my friends ask me for a good drivers ed, I would tell them to go to silver key.
Thanks Luca,
Thanks for coming all the way from Germany! You were great!
Fantastic experience: Your child will thank you! Mostly videos and lectures, and easy 10-question quizzes. All material is learned in a fun and effective manner, though fast-paced. The class head, Rob, also has a very good sense of humor. Helpful instructors that are not too insistent but still firm and safe. Driving schedules are tailored to every student and changes are VERY flexible. An after-school drive in the yellow Camero is the way to get picked up in style. This driving class is the kind of class where students have a fun time while learning to drive. You get to look back on the fun and friendships made in Idaho Driving School, and the last class is held at Fast-Lane where the students get to race go-karts, are given driver's permits, and pose for a class picture to remember. Just don't get the driving instructor Steve. (He seems quite an a******)
Hey "Bob", Thanks for your review, I appreciate the feed back. We want to make sure all of our students have a positive experience in Driver's Ed. I apologize if any of my instructors said anything that would make you feel like they didn't care. Give me a call if you would like to discuss further.
Thanks again and look forward to seeing you on the road!
Fantastic experience: I needed a flexible program for my son to learn drivers ed due to sports and other school activities. My son did the online version that is offered. It took him about 5 weeks to finish the online part and then he started driving. My son always had good things to say about the instructors and loved the cars he got to drive in. Two weeks later, he passed his final drive and is now driving us parents around. We had nothing but good experiences with Rob and his staff.
Never too late to say Thanks. Thanks!
Fantastic experience: This drivers ed class was probably one of the funnest classes I've ever attended. The teacher/driving instructor (Rob) was super fun to be around. He makes teaching 32 kids very entertaining. Plenty of jokes, as well as all the learning. On the final exam, all 32 student passed, which in my opinion, says a lot about Rob's teaching methods. Definitely would recomend to anyone wanting to take drivers ed, and still feel comfertable and have a good time.
Thanks
Fantastic experience: 運転実技試験をやってもらった。いいのかわるいのか、厳しくない。
Thanks
Fantastic experience: Totally amazing, the cars were fun, and the instructors were really awesome, pizza day was good, overall it was am awesome experience, i would say its definetley worth the extra money
Thanks!
Fantastic experience: Rob is quite the character, but the class is lots of fun. The cars are nice and the driving instructors are very kind. Shout out to Scott, my favorite instructor. Fast paced learning and fast cars. 10/10 would learn again.
Thanks, hope all is well with you!
Fantastic experience: Great expirence! Best teachers with fabulous personalities. They have a huge sense of humor. They know when to mess around and have fun and when it's time to be serious. I feel safe in the car with them. If you don't have a sense of humor you will not get very far in this class. Best class ever! Definitely recommend it. And it is a little more spendy, but hey, you get to drive those cool cars with rob, scott, jerry, and the rest! :)
Thanks
Fantastic experience: Well where to begin. Captin rob was amazing. Fun and can make as well as take a joke. Definetly go again. The cars are clean and in good working conditon. Geat people great cars what more could you ask for. P.S. say hi to rob for me. Tell him KUNA sent you.
You are the best! Thanks
Fantastic experience: 10/10 - IGN. Like Skyrim with Cars. No, but really. Great class, fun adventure, and lots of amazing instructors. Definatly recommend.
Thanks
Fantastic experience: Wow Rob, what a character. Only mean a little bit sometimes, love the guy. This is the best driving experience you can get on Benjamin and emerald street. Really though it's a very fast course and it's a lot of fun. Well not really fun but kinda fun. 10/10 stars
Thanks
Fantastic experience: fast cars
Thanks
Fantastic experience: Did online drivers ed with Idaho Driving School. Rob made it so easy to begin that I could start within 20 minutes of leaving their office. Because I could do it at my own pace, I was able to complete the course by the date I'd like and worked around my schedule perfectly. I have heard tons of other great things about the in class option from fellow students and would have done this option if I was able to work it around my work schedule. Highly recommend this company for any new drivers, you won't regret it.
Thanks
Fantastic experience: I just finished Silver Key's driving school a few weeks ago and I have got to say that it was one of the best experiences of my life!! I was scared at first about the larger class room setting but I soon found out I didn't need to be! The instructors are outgoing, kind and fun. I enjoyed every class. Rob is an amazing instructor. I was confident while driving because every single one of my drivers were observant and watchful. I made friends with the kids in the class and each instructor. I would highly recommend this school to anyone who wants to concur drivers ed, as well as have fun! (Rob likes donuts)
Thanks
Fantastic experience: Great class. Instructors were engaging and concise. Schedule was well-structured and organized, but also convenient and flexible towards your needs. I learned everything I needed to and felt very confident with my driving by the end. Rob was a blast, best Driver's Ed. instructor by far. Overall, awesome program.
Its been a while, Thanks!
Fantastic experience: You won't find better cars than the ones Rob has. The instructors were patient and I was able to learn a lot. Rob is running a great business, doing some great things. It was worth it. Overall, The class was lit
Thanks
Fantastic experience: These guys stay in business because they provide a positive learning environment, they feel like they are integrating you because the entire family is there. Stories are told by people helping you learn that driving and crashes are real even if you haven't experienced it. They're drives are relaxing with both new recruits and veterans. If you want your teen to learn to drive go here. The schedule is very flexible on when to drive. Rob may pick on students for the entertainment of others but at their request he will stop. 6/5 stars!
Thanks Sam, Seems I get heckIers or a class clown in every class. Over the years I have come to enjoy it and use it to entertian the class and keep them awake so they learn what they need to know to be safe drivers. We are always looking for good instrutors, especially thru this pandemic. Hope you are well. Thansks for the review and sorry anout the deley, Rob
Fantastic experience: Rob is G
Thanks Sydney, appears I missed a few reviews, more like G6! Drive safe, Rob
Fantastic experience: Rob is the best
Thanks Jaylan, Thats what I always say, You are the best!
Rob
Fantastic experience: We have had a great experience with them so far! They have been super friendly and helpful. It is in a convenient location that was easy to find and best of all they are able to work with our schedule on a time frame that fits our needs. Really glad we chose to go with them.
Negative experience: Wow I don't know how these guys stay in business. I told them my daughter was very nervous and had panic attacks so they assured me that they would be very careful to make sure she was a comfortable, confident driver. They scheduled her first drive at night on a day that had freezing rain in the busiest part of our city. It's hard to imagine a worse time to have a nervous teenager try her first drive. The second drive was an even worse experience. These guys just seem to be a conveyor belt churning out drivers. I got a refund and I would never use their company again with any of my children. I wish I could give them less than 1 star.
This this first I heard of your daughter, Trinity’s, panic attacks. However, when we met for her first drive I noticed she was extremely nervous and I asked if you wanted to reschedule for another time. She seemed reluctant to drive but you told her she could do it.
Trinity’s first drive was at 5:45pm on January 6, 2016. It was just getting dark but it was not raining and the roads were not icy. There was no freezing rain and Trinity barely left the parking lot because she was so nervous. We start all of our students in the parking and let them progress at their own pace.
You showed up late to your second drive without your driving log. The instructor explained we could reschedule the drive or you could go home and get the driving log and bring it back. You were upset because you didn’t want to drive home and back. When you got back you were upset and blamed the instructor for having to go home get the driving log. You yelled at him in front of your daughter and our other two students in spite of the fact that the instructor did everything he could to try accommodate you. Trinity was still nervous on her second drive and just drove in our parking lot and around our office.
I offered to refund your money because you were rude to my instructors and disregarded any attempt I made to apologize or to resolve the situation.
I wish you the best.
Negative experience: Sliverkey may be a good choice once you get into their classes. However their reservation system is an absolute nightmare. They hardly answer phones, don't return voice mails and don't email at all. Even though I had a 'confirmed' reservation weeks before the start of the class, I was told on the first day of the class that it is full. Very disappointing. Luckily there are many good driver education schools in Boise. Avoid this one.
