 Not sure why you think it is a scam? I have been in business for over 12 years with stellar reviews. have not received any emails from you and I cannot answer the phone when class is in session . Please email

Fantastic experience: I went to Rims Driving School so that they could teach me how to drive so that I could get my license I'll start by saying the best decision I've ever made and my instructor Sheila Phillips she is the absolute best so patient and kind.

Fantastic experience: Frank was great! He was engaging and did everything to make sure my daughter felt comfortable taking her road test! Definitely would recommend RIMS!!!!!
Thank you ! We love Frank.
Fantastic experience: We used Rims driving school for our son. I cannot express how wonderful Frank the instructor was with my son. For a child who was so intimidated by driving to become a confident new driver who passed his road test on the first try it was just remarkable to see. Thank you for your hard work.
Thank you Patricia and best wishes to you and your son!
Fantastic experience: Best driving lessons ever !!! Frank was exceptional! My daughter did the five hour driving lessons with him . There really aren’t enough words to describe how patient , knowledgeable funny and kind he was . We looked forward to every lesson. He truly is one of a kind . We also took the five hour course through RIMS and my daughter thoroughly enjoyed it . It was both engaging , informative and motivating ! Another wonderful learning experience . I would recommend RIMS driving school without any hesitation!
 Thank you Joanna! 
Fantastic experience: In life, many things must precede our goals. After allowing my driver's license to expire during a long period of being unwell, I went to DMV to get it renewed. To my horror, I was to become an apprentice in need of a permit; once more. I had to retake the written test.....which I accomplished w/o rereading the manual. Next, a 5 hour class?? Ye gods!!! I was eye rolling and very irritated. Actually, I must admit to being downright contemptuous about the entire thing. I was on a goal road, this "5 hour horror" was unbelievable and completely and totally necessary. On my 60th birthday, last month, I attended the class taught by Suzanne, owner of RIMS Driving School. Here stood this attractive and small framed woman, whom I needed to listen to FOR 5 HOURS!....... AND WHAT A PRESENTATION!! She paced the room and left intelligent oodles of noodles everywhere for us to intellectually consume. I understand my responsibilities as a driver so clearly! I am a privileged member of a social community with responsibilities to myself, my passengers and everyone else on the road. If I'm not in control, mentally, physically, emotionally, I should not be on the road. I understand that each rule of the social activity of driver's that is broken by its privileged participants, creates a less safe environment for everyone, driver and pedestrian. Suzanne taught me to be a better, safer me on the road! That translates to my whole life! I requested RIMS for driving classes. God sent me His Angel, Stephanie! After 2 classes filled with respect, Patience, kindness and competence, I passed the road test today for the second time in life, on the First Try! God is so unbelievably kind! He gave Suzanne the heart ♥ to teach with passion what she believes for the good of all of us. She hires amazing Angels like Stephanie to teach us with such care and compassion, I am tearing up. Do you need the "dreaded" 5 hour class for the DMV? Take it from Suzanne. She cares Sooooooo much, YOU. WILL. TOO!!!!!! GOD, YOU DID A FINE JOB HERE! AMEN ❣️❣️❣️❣️❣️❣️❣️❣️❣️❣️❣️
Fantastic experience: Our experience at RIMS was excellent ! I would recommend anyone learning to drive to attend lessons through them. I’ve had past experiences with my older children at a different driving school in the area that didn’t even compare to the lessons my youngest son received at RIMS. Suzanne went above and beyond to be sure my son became A licensed driver. Stephanie was also an excellent, patient instructor who accommodated our hectic schedule. I cannot say enough wonderful things about these women. I am very thankful that RIMS gave my son a wonderful driving experience !!! Thanks again !! . Amy Stype
 It was a pleasure Amy! Shane is a great kid ! 
Fantastic experience: Frank did an outstanding job preparing our son for his test, which he passed this week. Very impressed with this driving school.
Thank you so much for the review!
Fantastic experience: I needed to take a road test quickly, and I reached out to RIMS to see if they could help with some pre-road test prep. They got back to me right away, and Tara scheduled a lesson. From end to end it was such a great, professional experience. Nothing was too much trouble and they were super flexible and willing to help. I passed my road test a couple days later, couldn't recommend highly enough! Thank you!!
Thank you James! We appreciate the business and the kind words. Stay safe
Fantastic experience: My driving instructor Frank is the Greatest! He aims to make you feel comfortable and confident behind the wheel. He starts off slow and builds up your skills.
