Roadworthy Driving Academy Inc: Reviews
Fantastic experience: After a terrible road test experience at the DPS office we selected a third party testing option. These folks got us in fast and were so kind and professional. Literally the nicest people to do a road test with. My son felt comfortable and capable instead of berated and ridiculed. Can I give ten stars? (And no waiting 2 to 3 months for an appointment!!)
Thank you Crystal. We are authorized to administer the road test and we welcome any new driver that has a permit. So happy we could get you in quickly and congratulations to your son on getting his driver license!
Fantastic experience: I had an amazing experience learning to drive with Roadworthy Driving Academy. As an older student who had never driven before, I was honestly nervous to start—but Sir L made the entire journey smooth and encouraging. He was incredibly patient, calm, and supportive throughout every lesson, even when I struggled with the basics at first. And also to awesome Ms. Karen Thank you so much ma'am! Thanks to his guidance and positive attitude, I passed my driving test! I highly recommend Sir L and Roadworthy Driving Academy to anyone looking for a professional and understanding instructor—especially if you're starting from zero like I did. To Sir L Maraming Salamat po!
Wow! Thank you so much for your kind review. We are so excited that you had a wonderful experience at our driving school. I have passed on your wonderful words to Mr. L and he will be so excited to hear them.
Fantastic experience: Call them last minute around 4:00 in the afternoon they never made me feel rushed the lady at the front desk explained the process very well After explaining how everything worked I took my driver's test which the instructor did a very good job on helping me understand my rights from my wrongs great company great people
Awesome Zach! Congratulations on getting your license. Glad we could help you.
Fantastic experience: I would like to thank everyone at RDA for all the kindness they showed my son Brandon. We had a great experience.
Thank you! We are so happy to hear that Brandon had a good experience at our school. Driving can be scary and we are happy we were able to make it a little easier for him.
Fantastic experience: A few months ago, I was signed up at Roadworthy, and was pretty rusty with all driving basics. I was super nervous, but was welcomed and encouraged by such a warm and supportive team there at this academy. Karen is a superstar, so so approachable and helpful. And my driving instructor? I recommend up and down 10/10, 100% cannot go wrong with Mr. L! I have so much anxiety, and this man shaped me into a proper driver in just 4 1-hr sessions. I cannot stress enough how wonderful that man is, I owe every thanks to Mr. L. He is an absolute gem, with his compassion, his gentle yet efficient way of teaching, and will treat you like you are his only student. I not only got what I needed, but I really enjoyed my time there. In fact, I’m sending one of my younger siblings for some lessons with Mr. L next week!
Thank you so much for your kind words. I will make sure I pass this along to my staff and instructors. We are so happy you had a good experience.
Fantastic experience: I had a great experience with the entire team of this driving school. Big thanks to the amazing and great ladies at the front desk! Special thanks to Mr L. Who has been my teacher all the time(Maramit salamat sir). And the final thanks goes to Mr Moore
Thank you Cheryl! It was a pleasure meeting you and getting you on the road! We will miss seeing you so please stop by and say hello every now and then.
Fantastic experience: Mr. Moore and Karen are so professional and kind.This is an excellent place.
Thank you for the kind review. We are so very happy that we exceeded your expectations. I will be sure to pass your praise on to my instructors and staff.
Fantastic experience: Experience was overall great and I came out of it a better driver! All of the instructors (especially Mr. L) did a fantastic job of guiding me, and the front office staff were always helpful.
Thank you for the kind review. We are so very happy that we exceeded your expectations. I will be sure to pass your praise on to my instructors and staff.
Fantastic experience: The parent log they make you do really helps out with getting used to driving and all the instructors and staff were really kind and understanding. Definitely would recommend this place to more people!
Thank you Robin. We really appreciate the kind words. I will be sure to pass them along to my staff. We are very happy that you had a great experience. Our small business thrives on referrals made by people like you.
Fantastic experience: Great place! Very friendly loving people
Thank you for your kind words. We are so happy you had such a great experience. It is our constant goal to provide excellent driver education and outstanding customer service to all of our families.
Fantastic experience: Roadworthy Driving Academy was such an amazing program! Although my husband and I understand the important fundamentals of driving, we wanted our children to get the proper education of the driving experience and hands-on learning with a credible instructor. Both my son and daughter went through this academy and successfully earned their permits and license. My daughter, Marisa, really enjoyed her instructor, Mr L. He was extremely patient, guiding, and such an overall amazing driving instructor and examiner. I am grateful for this experience this program has provided my family. We highly recommend Roadworthy Driving Academy.
Thank you so much for taking the time to write this kind review. So happy that you had a great experience. Our staff and instructors are the best and we are so lucky to have them as part of our Roadworthy family.
Fantastic experience: Roadworthy has kind and helpful instructors and receptionists that will help you with your driving experience on and off the road.
Thank you for your kind review. So happy you had a good experience. Please let us know if there is anything else you need
Fantastic experience: Extraordinario trato recibido de todo el personal. Felicidades!!! Sigan asi!!!
Thank you! So glad you had a good experience. That is our goal everyday. And thank you for posting. Your words are very kind.
Fantastic experience: Karen is awesome. She is very well organized and always so positive and helpful! We highly recommend Roadworthy because of her! Great Job Karen!
Thank you so much for your kind words. She is amazing and we would not be the same without her. Thank you for posting.
Fantastic experience: Roadworthy Driving Academy is the place to go for new teen drivers! Everyone there is super friendly and their sole focus is ensuring new drivers are able to operate a motor vehicle safely and confidently. The driving instructors do a superb job in helping to make sure the kids are not overly nervous and the folks working the front counter are very, very nice people who made us feel like family. They taught two of my kids and my third will start driving with them this summer. I HIGHLY recommend sending your new drivers to Roadworthy Driving Academy!
Thank you for the kind words. We appreciate your business and look forward to meeting #3 soon (-:
Fantastic experience: Good place to learn to drive from I will be going back soon
Positive experience: Great place to take the high-school kid to learn to drive. They have simulators and plenty of drive times available. Lady at the front desk is always super nice.
Thank you for your review. We are very happy that you had a good experience at our driving school. Our goal is to provide every family quality driver training so that their teens are safe on the roadway. Please let us know if there is anything else we can do for you.
Fantastic experience: Excellent family owned small business that cares about the success of their students. Both my daughter and son learned to drive through Roadworthy. My wife and I were very pleased with the quality of instruction, course pricing, professionalism of all the instructors, and courteous front office staff!
Thank you for your kind words. We appreciate your business and are so happy we were able to help get your teens started on their journey to become good drivers.
Negative experience: Karen was rude and very disrespectful. Very disappointed with their poor customer service and they extra fees. They made me feel completely stupid and hung up on me. I’m going to pay double just to avoid having any business with them.
This is in response to Mayra Contreras’ review. So many times people decide to write a review but forget the reasons why an incident occurred in the first place. We have had over 30000 customers over the the past 17 years and more than 99% of them have been satisfied. I believe we all can agree that most complaints are solved without writing a negative review. I realize as a small business owner, when I am threatened with a bad review, most of the time money is involved. In this particular incident Ms. Contreras signed her son up for driver education in June of 2020. Even with DPS delays in issuing permits, he received his permit in September of 2020 giving him until December 2020 to come and do his behind the wheel portion. As a small business, we made the decision to add additional time on all of our deadlines because of Covid-19. Her son’s new deadline date was June 30 of 2021. She came back demanding to finish July 2021.
As a small business, in order to assist everyone because of Covid-19, we decided to absorb all costs and fees that extending deadline dates would cause. We notified everyone multiple times by email of this decision. We also stated in the new deadline dates. In my conversation with Ms. Contreras she acknowledged the receipt of these emails. Her son’s new deadline date was June 30 of 2021. One year and one month after he started Driver Ed. The fee to re-contract is $100 for additional time. Ms. Contreras started the conversation with me with “I have paid my part and if you charge me an additional $100 I will write a negative review”. I will not be bullied because someone did NOT do their part. We have been open for business and incurring additional expenses in order to follow all CDC guidelines and we as a small business have decided not to pass on the additional expenses to our customers. We gave Ms. Contreras an additional 6 months to complete at no charge. Now that her son is 16 years old, he wants to finish Driver Ed. I gave Ms. Contreras all her options so that her son could finish. She chose to write a negative review instead of extending her contract. I find it interesting that it took Ms. Contreras one year and one month to decide that we had bad customer service and only after she was told that there would be a penalty for not finishing on time as per the contract.
Fantastic experience: My experience with Roadworthy Driving Academy is 10/10. The workers have great people skills, my instructor Mr.Moore does a wonderful job at what he does and the Receptionist Ms.Karen gives clear and full details of what to expect. I have done 3 sessions and I am already about to take my test! Great place!
Thank you for your kind words. We are so happy that we were able to help you become a good driver. Good luck on your road test! Maybe you will get Mr. Moore as your examiner when you take your test at Roadworthy.
Fantastic experience: We finished our course with Roadworthy and I cannot praise them enough. It was a great experience for my daughter. I highly recommend this school. I would also opt to take the driving test there. It’s a little more money but well worth it
Thank you for your kind review. So glad we met your expectations. We strive to help every teen be a safe and defensive driver.
Fantastic experience: Great driving school! Owners are super nice and do so much for the community!
Thank you! We work hard to provide quality driver education and we are happy that you had a great experience.
Fantastic experience: We love Roadworthy! My oldest daughter went through their program and got her license and now my son is completing the program to get his license! Not only is it a great program the staff is excellent and so friendly!
Thank you so much for the kind words
Fantastic experience: I took my DPS road test here in May 2020. The workers were very nice and very helpful. I got my test done in 20 minutes and got all of the documents I needed to mail to DPS.
Fantastic experience: The staff there was very nice and helpful. I haven’t been able to get my license at the DPS because of covid and they were able to help me with the driving test. Looking forward to getting my license in the mail! Thanks for helping me out and I’m glad I didn’t have to wait for DPS to open.
Fantastic experience: Eric and the Roadworthy Team went above and beyond to give my daughter her DPS Skills Test during the unprecedented time of COVID19. Highly recommend!
Thank you. You guys are very kind and again thank you for the people you sent our way.
Negative experience: The fokes there are condsinding and do not really teach you anything. They only want your money and do not care if you are a safe driver or not.
We are sorry if you had a less than perfect experience. We can assure you that after more than 15 years of teaching young drivers in our community, we most definitely care. Please reach out to us so that we can address the issue you had with one of our employees. Call and ask to speak to Eric. Or email him directly at [email protected].
Fantastic experience: 10/10
Fantastic experience: What an incredible experience! Mr Moore & Jasmine are phenomenal. Customer service is what they do!!!! Went to RoadWorthy for final license test and was treated like royalty.....they explained each step throughly and made sure my daughter got all the right info! It's a family owned business and the care shows! Thx so much for the great morning & continued blessings for such a great staff! 5 STARS ALL THE WAY!
Positive experience: To be honest, I didn't see the point in going to this school. The lessons were typically common sense, and the instructor literally GAVE us the answers DURING the tests and quizzes. I didn't learn anything during the classroom portion, but the driving portion is a different story. If you want your child to go here, DO NOT sign up for the simulators. The driving instructors are nice, understanding, and experienced enough to help anyone.
Fantastic experience: This is an excellent driving school! The teachers are amazing and really know what they're talking about. The classes and simulators adequately prepare students for the real thing so that there aren't any shockers on the first few drives. All my practice drive times with road worthy were pleasurable as the instructors are pleasant people and the drives with them are always an hour long (give or take 5 minutes sometimes). I took my driving test today and passed due to the awesome teaching that is conducted here. Would highly recommend!
Thank you so much for the kind words and clarifying what a couple of other people claimed. Its better coming from customers rather than from me. Again thank you
Negative experience: Don't go here. TERRIBLE in every way possible. Even the owner doesn't care about the customers.
I am sorry your experience here at Roadworthy was anything short of excellent. I will say that we as a driving school have helped over 30,000 young people receive their permits and driver licences.
Fantastic experience: I’m signing my 3rd child up. The other 2 did great and it makes our insurance less expensive. They have always been professional and my kids seemed to feel confident when the course was complete. I saved me the anxiety of letting an inexperienced teen driver drive me around town!
Thank you for your patronage. You and your family are great people.
Fantastic experience: I would recommend Roadworthy to anyone with teenagers who are ready to learn to drive. Mr. Moore and his staff are very friendly and went out of their way to make my daughter feel comfortable and less nervous. Mr. Moore is the most calming soul you will ever meet, and his employees are equally patient and kind. Highly recommend!!
Fantastic experience: Took my driving test here. Very pleasant
Negative experience: Disappointed with overall experience.
Negative experience: School refused to give my son a second lesson. School said he would have to wait a month before his next appointment. When I asked for a refund the office lady refused.
Negative experience: Ripped Me Off!
Fantastic experience: Ver y good school.very good attention
Negative experience: In the middle of our daughters driving schedules, the owners changed the drive instruction intervals from 3 days to 5 days. Meaning if you signed up for 7 lessons it will nearly double the amount of time it will take you to complete the process. And the change was made midstream. No valid reason, just "the owners decided to change the intervals". Very disappointed in this org.
Over 1000 students attend roadworthy every year and we have to manage our drive times . One way is to require a certain number of days between each drive. During the summer we are driving from 9am till 9 pm. When school starts we lose all the daytime hours so in order to allow every one to get drive times we require more days between each lesson. Students still have to hold their permits for 6 months. As in your case you did drives the first couple of months then stopped driving with us for the entire summer. You waited until the fall to complete all the rest of your drives. It might have been midstream for you but it was the start of school in the fall for everyone else. The fall is always much tougher for Driving Schools. Almost all driving schools require one to two weeks between drives some even go out to one a month. We do not.
Fantastic experience: Roadworthy is an excellent driving school and I would recommend it to anyone :D
