Western Slope Driving Institute - Littleton

Negative experience: I left work early to take my two daughters to the Littleton location, which advertises walk-in driving tests both on the website and on the business window... we tried to call ahead to verify, but nobody answers the phone. When we arrived we were told tests are not administered at the Littleton location. The employee gave us a list of other locations to go and suggested we call ahead to check on the wait times. We tried calling two of the other locations and neither answered the phone. When we drove across town to the Centennial location, the employee was sitting behind the desk (not on the phone, so not sure why she didn't answer when we called) and we were told they couldn't accommodate us since they had too many people waiting. For the price we pay for these tests, I expected a better experience - and our experience hasn't even include the test yet!

Fantastic experience: Ashley and Kim are amazing and SO helpful! I had initially signed up with a different driving school. After we signed up, the wait to schedule a drive was over a month out. Ashley was able to get us in right away. They have been a joy to work with and my kids are learning and enjoying their lessons. HIGHLY recommended!

Negative experience: ABSOLUTELY UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCES SHOULD YOU USE THIS DRIVING SCHOOL. Let me start by saying my daughter filled her driving hours in 3 months, she loves to drive. When it came to the in-car instruction, the instructor slammed on her breaks in the middle of an intersection and scared my daughter to the point that she wouldn't drive for a month. I called WSDI and the owner, Dorene, called my daughter a liar and me a helicopter Mom. After much unnecessary argument with the owner, she finally gave my daughter a different instructor for her second drive. It's now time for her 3rd drive, and she can either use the instructor at Littleton, or we can drive all the way out to Parker. They will not refund me for unused lessons. The owner and her staff are the absolute worst to work with. Avoid at all costs. It's not worth the headaches.

Negative experience: Buyer beware! In person driving lessons are contracted with an end date for use! The date is arbitrary, you are not notified that it is approaching, and if it passes, you will have to pay for the lessons again without apology. Customer service is lacking and greed prevails.

Fantastic experience: Ashley and Kim were so helpful and understanding. We had gotten ourselves into a predicament with the dmv, and they seriously went above and beyond to take care of my daughter. Emails were sent out multiple times confirming the rules and regulations to ensure we can and will be completely prepared for WDS. They made it very clear and upfront everything that we needed to do. They are very respectful. Very nice. And very professional. I felt completely comfortable and confident having my daughter drive around and learn from her. I can not thank them enough for their compassion for our situation. They're really their for your kiddos' best interest in mind. Whist I had an amazing experience, when we had walked in, Kim was getting ripped a new one by another mom with her daughter, who just got back from her behind the wheel drive. I watched Kim explain to the lady that she(kim) is only doing her job and following the laws of Colorado roads and teaching new drivers how to be safe and confident. Even while she was being beaten down by someone ,who in all reality, just came in unprepared, Kim still managed to stay calm and professional during and after the interaction. She didn't let that mess up her time with my daughter at all. It just made me appreciate them even more I highly recommend them and will continue to!
