Edwards Driving School: Reviews
Negative experience: i’m a beginner driver and every-time i had a appointment to drive with instructor they would always show up 20 minutes late to my house and they literally gave me a instructor who barely spoke english and had a heavy accent so i couldn’t understand one thing he was saying !!!!
Negative experience: DO NOT PURCHASE LESSONS. Their phone line is disconnected and they have no email listed on the website. I purchased lessons and immediately called to schedule them to find that their phone line is disconnected and their license has expired so they can't teach them anyway! I filed a dispute with my bank since they won't refund me.
Negative experience: I paid for 3 driving lessons and all three were canceled the evening before. The first lesson was canceled due to the road conditions, which is understandable. But they scheduled me for lessons after Jan 20th, knowing that their drivers education license would expire on Jan 16th. I haven’t been able to get in contact with the office since.
Fantastic experience: I did my drug and alcohol test, Larry was awesome, He took us to every detail ,He is great teacher after leaving I came away with a lot more knowledge, thank you. E.D.S.

Fantastic experience: Amazing
Fantastic experience: I am really pleased with this driving school. I'm taking road lessons with Glenn who is so patient and makes you feel comfortable. I highly recommend this establishment. The woman in the office is wonderful (Michelle).
Fantastic experience: Very patience and helpful.
Fantastic experience: The reason why i gave 5 starts is not only because of the affordable prices but because I had to take my drivers license but couldn't at that time and went back to my college (far away from Bloomfield) and you know what happened? they CALLED me and asked me to come back and take the test because they wanted me to pass. i didn't have a ride there and back other than uber, and uber is expensive. So the owner is telling me he would pay for me to come down and take my test, so I did and I passed. He also paid me back the money that I spend to get down to Bloomfield from my college to take my test. Now that literally is the understanding of the quote about a village raises a child. Thank you sir for helping me get my license.
Fantastic experience: This is a very good driving school. The instructor tries to make the classroom fun, while giving out the important information you need. I learned all the things I need to be a successful driver. Very pleased!
Fantastic experience: The teacher and staff is very patient and pleasant. They put great effort into ensuring that you pass your road test . Thanks Again Edwards Driving School!!!
Fantastic experience: Amazing experience. Passed on first try!
Negative experience: Did one driving lesson, wasn’t able to make it to my next one, and they wanna talk about I won’t get my money back for my missed appointment (even said “use it or lose it”), then tried to charge me another $60 to reschedule. The lady also talks like she has an attitude as well. Not recommended. They owe me $60 btw.
Fantastic experience: I was well prepared for my road test even extra prep on the D-day and very helpful with my document's for DMV. And pass for my first time
Fantastic experience: Best driving school especially for new drivers, I went to this school with no knowledge of drving, they thought me from scratch and the first time I went to do my driving test I passed. I would highly recommend.
Fantastic experience: By far the best driving school. Larry was my driver instructor, he taught me everything I needed to know. He was patient and kind and made sure I left there with getting my license and a 100% on the test. I went there only knowing the basics of driving and within less than 3-4 weeks I was driving better than ever. Everyday I drive I think of Edwards Driving school because I feel like I’m a perfect driver, LITERALLY. This place needs to be on the news and billboards! THANK YOU EDWARDS DRIVING SCHOOL AND A SPECIAL THANK YOU TO LARRY for helping me!
Positive experience: That is where i got my license teacher was awesome
Positive experience: Great, School to your drivers license training.
Fantastic experience: It was a great pleasure learning to drive at Edward’s Driving School. The detailed instructions given by Rahman was of tremendous help in passing my driver’s test. He made me comfortable, he complimented and encouraged me throughout my instructions. I am very thankful to Rahman and the driving school.
Fantastic experience: Great service you won't regret it got my license in a short time
Fantastic experience: I was train by the instructer him self. He extended my test day and had me through my weak areas on the road, this gave me a one time pass at DMV. I like their patience .
Negative experience: I paid $550 for my son to take 8 driving lessons and drug and alcohol course. Driving instructor repeatedly was late to every appointment. One time cut my son's session in half...picked up another student...gave them their lesson...(while my son was sitting in the back seat).... then continued with my son's lesson after the other student completed theirs. Paid another 100 for my step daughter to learn to back into the parking spaces. Again instructor showed late to her appointments. On her day of test we were told first come first serve to test starting 8am. We arrived at school at 7:40. DMV employee there waiting along woth other student. Owner did not show up to school until 8:50 am. Stated he forgot today was testing day.He requested that "if people could just be nice and let people who had things to do go first", because apperantly the rest of us had nothing better to do. No system was in place to decide who came first. Of course people were lying about when they came. Waited 4 and a half hours to take test. There is no professionalism here. Gave it 2 stars because once they get you in the car the instruction is actually good.
Negative experience: This is a really bad school. Lessons are way over priced, and the instructor is HORRIBLE, barely speaks English and talks on the phone half of the time. I would not recommend this to anyone. Bad bad bad.
Positive experience: They driving instructor was not good at all he was very rude , and he could barely speak English he was confusing and very mean I would reccommend they get rid of him and find someone more professional.
Negative experience: Do not go to this course they try to rip you off when they get the chance. I lost my yellow paper that I got from them and I asked for a new one and they charged me 25 bucks for it I wanted to pay my ( debit ) card they said it d be 30 bucks. This is just stealing and dishonesty. I really don't suggest you to deal with this course find somewhere else.
Fantastic experience: They were friendly, fast and trustworthy. My daughter was trained by the owner. He is patient and is able to assess the student driver's strengths and areas for improvement quickly and accurately. They prepare you for everything you need for the DMV. They also offer the mandatory drug and alcohol training classes necessary for the drivers permit/license. She passed her road test at the first try. Excellent!!!
Fantastic experience: I had a great experience with Edwards Driving School! Mr. Edwards taught the majority of my lessons and he was terrific! He was very kind, patient, and made me feel at ease behind the wheel. I was very nervous but by the time my driver's test came around I felt confident behind the wheel! I passed my test at the DMV without any issues. I would definitely recommend Edwards Driving School, especially to nervous driver!
Fantastic experience: Great service, easy process, affordable
Negative experience: Honestly I shouldn't even waste my time leaving a 1 star feedback. All I have to say is only go here if you have absolutely no other alternative. Their level of unprofessionalism is beyond uncanny.
Negative experience: Today I went for my license exam with Edward's Driving School. When we got to the DMV and went to the counter, the insurance card for the car was out of date. I now have to wait another two months before I can take my driving exam. This is an outrageous failure on the part of the driving school and will make my life a lot harder since I will now have to take cabs for the next two months. I would strongly caution against using their service if you do not want to have a similar issue.
Negative experience: Terrible! If you want to learn how to drive do not come here. If you want to sit beside a "driving instructor" who does nothing but talk on his cell phone & hit on you, this is the perfect place for you! & Don't even bother hoping that the awful instructor is no longer working there or will be fired, he is the owner's son. Save yourself the headache & the money, go elsewhere.
