Fantastic experience: Extremely professional. Would 100% recommend it.

Fantastic experience: Peter is the best, did my 5hr pre-licensing course and 3 driving classes + road test package. Passed on first try at Red Hook. 10/10 would recommend.

Fantastic experience: Peter is a great and very patient instructor with a good sense of humor! He adapted his schedule to my availability and taught me to drive calmly while paying attention to the road. Definitely recommend taking classes with him.

Fantastic experience: I went to Alcon National Driving Center these past months of July and august. I was trained by Peter who I believe runs the company by himself. He is very professional, timely, communicative and I’m very thankful to have ended up going to this school rather than somewhere else. You can contact him easily via the number attached to this location. Peter started our lesson by showing me the official NYC DMV road test criteria paper (i attached this) which explains the different infractions drivers might make during the roadtest. Each infraction is a certain amount of points, for example wide turns are 5 points off, and if you collect a total of 30 points during the final road test you fail. I find this really important when learning how to drive, because while its good to be safe on the road, in the end you want to pass the test and so focusing on the requirements from the beginning is the most effective. As I drove, Peter corrected me both verbally and on paper so i could go home and continue studying what i was struggling with (checking mirrors and blindspots in particular). I also had difficulties with parallel parking as I think most people do, however if you do your final road test with Peter you are using the same car you train with, and its very easy to get accustomed to the movements of this car and be successful in parallel parking. I booked my final test online via the DMV website, however I believe Peter can organise this for you and you can go to the final test in pairs. He will be able to tell you how much more driving you need to be ready for the road test. He will prepare you very well for the test, for example, taking you to roads where students often make mistakes so you can learn not to make them. I give a hearty 5/5 star rating to Alcon National Driving Center and to Peter who I am very grateful for. Goodluck to all prospective drivers!!! This is the place to go⭐️⭐️⭐️ In addition, I passed my test on the first attempt in Red Hook. ✅✅ The test taking takes a while because there are many drivers waiting for limited numbers of “assessors”, so even if you are booked for 2:00 pm you might only drive at 2:25 pm. (But the test was only 5 minutes). But you will do great because you will have Peter there to support you Best of luck!!!

Fantastic experience: I highly recommend this driving school. Peter is an extremely experienced driving instructor with a lot of patience and knowledge. He gives you helpful advices for you to succeed your test and teaches you to be a confident and better driver. He also made the whole process easy and fast.
