Patriot Driving School: Reviews

2.8/5 (21 Reviews)

Negative experience: Horrible would be an understatement. Avoid.

Elizabeth Knight 1 year ago

Negative experience: Took the drivers ed classes and road skills classes a few years ago now (late to making a review I know), and the experience was nothing less than irritating and upsetting. The classes were quick which was nice. Ms. Edna was an incredibly unlikable instructor, especially during the road lessons. My driving test was a nightmare for many reasons, some of which were due to Ms. Edna who did nothing but make the experience worse, and in the end she didn’t even tell me I passed, I had to ask her after being given things to sign. I left my test not feeling accomplished instead feeling upset. It may be the only good out of school option, but the only reason I gave it more than one star was become some of the other instructors were great.

Negative experience: Called, called and left messages no reply. …I stumbled on a new driving school. “Buckle up Butter Cup” . She replied fast and booking classes with no wait.

Fantastic experience: My daughter and I had a great experience with Patriot Driving School. Ms. Edna was very nice to work with and was very flexible around my daughter's sports schedule. The vehicles are in excellent condition, the instruction was quality, and the price was reasonable. I will use Patriot again and would recommend to friends.

Negative experience: Nice people (kind of), but the most outdated process and poor communication you could possibly imagine. Website looks like it was overdue to be redone ten years ago, and everything is in paper which personally drives me crazy. You’re left with this constant feeling of not really knowing what’s going on. Also ended up with confusion on two of the seven in car lessons which had to be rescheduled. So the bad process is also internal as well it seems. The only reason they are probably still in business is I’ve heard everyone else is just as bad. Anyone who wanted to make a fortune should just start a drivers ed company here with really great customer service. You’d have no competition. Some Instructors are really cool, though, so they get a one star bump for that..

Negative experience: if i could give NO stars i would...but i HAD to give one. Edna is a very rude, abrupt, and little no patient person. Their website does not ask, (so you can decide if their school is a fit) if your child has any special needs such as an IEP or 504 for needed accomodations.(they asked my son on the first day in front of other students) nor do they tell you that the class is so fast paced and covers 3 chapters a day..from 8 to 11:30am..It is a 9 day course, yes, but there is no daily outlined curriculum a parent can see before the sink their money into the program. Also, they do not allow any for abscences or emergencies. the only makeup period they allow is coming in 30 minutes early a day. my son missed 1 day, 3 chapters..then we stayed up together THE ENTIRE EVENING doing all 3 chapters and a full pages typed single spaced report on fatigued driving. my son didnt go to bed until 3am and was so sick to his stomach from his nerves being torn up that he couldnt make it in at 8. we wanted to come in at 930. she called me back at 830am and told me with the day before that he is losing that day also, that there is NO WAY for him to make up the classes he needs to pass. after class was over that day, she told me he cant finish even after completing all of his work. She didnt make me aware at that time that the school attendence was crucial because there is NO wiggle room to miss time...nor does it state it in their website. PARENTS BEWARE. it is like taking lessons from a rude worker at DMV. very unforgiving, crass and rude. overtalks you when you challenge her or ask for explanations. I am not disgruntled nor seeking some type of hype. All I know is this that i should have done my homework BEFORE i lost my money. he still doesnt have his license and I am out of money. Also..by the way..she made it a point to embarrass my son by pointing out "its too much" that she saw his boxers when he stretched after sitting for so long when class was over. My son looked confised and he said, "ok?" she said she doesnt need him to talk back, to do what she says without returned response. EXCUSE ME? that is my son. he is very modest and doesn't go around flashing is boxers or sagging his pants. all she had to do was say NOTHING. NEVER AGAIN.
