Florida Safety Council

Experiencia negativa: Take one look at how people drive here in Orlando and it's obvious that these guys are completely incompetent.

Experiencia negativa: My granddaughter was awarded six hours. The last day she was to do two hours. The instructor car broke down after 15 minutes. The instructor stated they would reschedule. I just spoke to someone on the phone and she stated. The manager Chris Earl said if you were in the car 15 minutes or more you don’t get the rest of your time. She went through a program so I’m wondering did the program pay them ahead of time for her lesson. Did they get paid the full amount and now don’t want to honor the allotted time. It’s not her fault that the car broke down. The check engine light was on so car was not a reliable vehicle. Just be aware of this company

Experiencia negativa: 12/15/2024 at 1050am Instructor with a student pulled into the Plaza Live parking lot and was driving around. I work security and parked my car in one of the lanes of the parking lot that only had 3 cars in it. The instructor gave me a nasty attitude and demanded I move my car out of the way so she could proceed with her lesson. I refused. You gave me a nasty attitude and I gave it right back. Learn some manners. Do you even have permission from the Property Management company to be using their parking lot for business? Update: The same instructor was on Plaza Live property on 12/28/24 and I confronted her. She gave me a nasty attitude, especially when I asked her if she had permission from the property management company to conduct business on site. Just a nasty individual all around. I will definitely be filing a complaint with their management team.

Experiencia fantástica: Customer service with helpful knowledge at its best.

Experiencia fantástica: Excelent place to learn everything that has to do with driving, EVERYTHING.

Experiencia fantástica: My daughter took Driver’s Education though SCPS. Florida Safety Council gave the in person lessons at the end of the course. They were easy with scheduling when I made the appointments. My daughter had the same instructor each time, Tae. She really enjoyed her lessons and felt so much more confident going to take the driving test. I would recommend her to anyone looking for a calm and clear instructor to teach their child the proper basics in driving and prepare them for the test!

Experiencia fantástica: Such a valuable experience for new drivers! The instructors are all so patient and nice, especially MaryBeth Bridges. My son has much more confidence behind the wheel.

Experiencia fantástica: This office was so accommodating and fit in my son's driving test without obligation on the same day I requested. Everyone was friendly and efficient.

Experiencia fantástica: Mary Beth was an amazing teacher, she made every driving day fun and worth showing up for.

Experiencia negativa: I just had to deal with Juanita Black. Not really sure what she does up there. SHE IS SO RUDE. She was mad that I was calling because it was a holiday. (July 4th was yesterday) I am sorry that you hate your job, maybe you souldn't work at a place that you don't want to. She was extreammly rude, not willing to answer any questions because she said its a holiday. Then why are you there. I was trying to book online and she was telling me everything I saw online is no longer available? Really all your classes are no longer available? She said her manager is Chris Earl and to deal with him because she shouldn't work on a holiday? Safety Councel why even have someone there if they are going to treat people like that? Juania Black should not be answering phones or dealing with customers.

Experiencia negativa: We had an appointment on the first of July at 10:15 and nobody showed up. The instructor had an incident and they didn’t tell us till 10:40. They rescheduled us for 5:30. We came again at 5:15 and that the instructor came around 5:45.There was also nobody around at that time as the premises closes at 4.

Experiencia fantástica: Great experience! The staff is so kind and attentive. Mary Beth was great, my son enjoyed his lesson, it helped prepare him for his road test.

Experiencia fantástica: They had amazing service and staff/teachers.Very kind, patient and gave clear instructions. Highly recommend

Experiencia fantástica: I loved Mary Beth, she was sweet and made my lessons enjoyable while still learning a lot!

Experiencia negativa: Their customer service is Devine !! So professional, i was left speechless… “that was sarcasm btw” HORRIBLE , don’t go to work if you don’t want to work !!

Experiencia negativa: Really bad experience with this new staff. When Ms. Carol, was their, things where easy, she took the time to explain things to you. I had to do my refresher on my OSHA 500, so I did it VIA, Zoom, the instructor teaching the course was good, but he is in a different time zone, which disrupted my schedule as a business owner, for meetings after classes with my staff for the day to day operations. They also have me on file with my business, so you think that someone would have in formed me about the difference in time. Please read the white lettering that would be in an acronym form so you know the time zone your instructor is in when you take online classes, cause if you don’t, they won’t tell you or try to explain it to you, or Do the in person class. If anything. I won’t be taken anymore classes. I will seek other means to facilitate my certifications.

Experiencia negativa: The road test use to be 60 dollars. Now it's 92 dollars?? What the hell?

Experiencia fantástica: The experience I had during my three driving lessons were awesome, Tony is truly a great instructor and has a good sense of humor. Thank you !!

Experiencia fantástica: The 4 hr PDI class was great experience. Instructor MR Holder was funny MERRY CHRISTMAS &HAPPY NEW YEAR

Experiencia negativa: I just love how you guys lock the doors prior to your close time. What a waste of somebody’s time to drive out there and you won’t answer your phone and you lock your doors early. Bad business!

Experiencia fantástica: The 4 hr BDI class was Great. The teacher Mr. Holder was fantastic

Experiencia negativa: Booking driving lessons for my cousin and nobody answers the phone multiple times throughout the day…do they expect her to go there with the driving knowledge she has yet to learn? This seems to be an issue with others, hope they get competent office staff soon.

Experiencia negativa: Horrible! The instructor did not care at all! I did everything accordingly and I wasted my time and money when I arrived early and he came later than expected.

Experiencia fantástica: The programs they provide are very informative and detailed. Their staff are very friendly and knowledgeable. They make learning easy and interesting. Maggie is an amazing person to learn from. Highly recommend

Experiencia negativa: Not the best driving school for me. Going to look elsewhere....

Experiencia negativa: I would never recommend anyone to this company, never there so unprofessional don’t nobody know how to assist with your appointments when you call don’t nobody know how to answer the phone if we needed people to work we should just hire our children. This exactly what it seems like you guys hired so I would never bring business to this company. I would never recommend this company.

Experiencia fantástica: My son had a great experience learning how to relax while driving with Instructor Rick. He was patient, kind and excellent in teaching my son. FL Safety Council offers a variety of schedule times and days to meet the needs of student driver's

Experiencia fantástica: Very happy I came here. David Avalos is the best instructor! He is extremely patient, and genuinely wants to help you be a better driver. 5 star experience!

Experiencia fantástica: Very nice people. Everything explained extremely well.

Experiencia negativa: Very unprofessional enviornment, building is dirty and empty. Had to find someone myself, receptionist appears to not want to work. The very impatient driving instructor(who was doubting me from the beginning and being very negative) i was given was a scam artist, let me drive for 5 seconds in heavy traffic only to stop me because I almost tapped a cone. He proceeded to take the wheel and said and quote "Ill take over from here" at that point he did the exact same thing he said not to do and tapped the cone himself which was "the cause" of him stopping me. They just want your money, not at all worth it, go somewhere rated alittle higher.

Experiencia fantástica: The experience was awesome David Avalos was my sons instructor . My son Cameron told me David helped him tremendously with his driving skills and was so nice and personable with him. Thank you very much David and the Florida Safety Council.

Experiencia fantástica: JoAnne Stone is a true asset to your company. I have gone through a few of these courses in different formats and dread every single one. Her course on the other hand kept me engaged from start to finish. Her personable and down to earth instruction method is amazing.

Experiencia fantástica: Highly recommend anyone who is trying to find a great place! This place is it!! Mr Dennis and Mr Phil were Amazing they know what they are doing and are very professional. They made me feel super comfortable they were very informative and trained me well i was able to pass my test. Thank You so much!!

Experiencia fantástica: All 4 in my family passed from FSC in 1st attempt & DMV issued license without a retake. Amazing staff & excellent customer service. A big thank you to all staff in FSC.

Experiencia positiva: Great place to do your drivers test. Cost of $60 and they have a car for you to use. Once you pass, you take the paper to the DMV and pick up your license.

Experiencia fantástica: David’s detailed, insightful verbal and written instruction and communication, valued my daughter’s time with him greatly!

Experiencia negativa: Do not buy online courses from this company. They don't deliver as promised. It's been 3 days since I finished my TLSAE course and so far I haven't received my certificate. I've already had to cancel 2 appointments at the DMV because they didn't give me the certificate within the promised time. And they don't answer emails. I have already sent more than 15 emails to two different addresses of the company and I have not received any response. It is not a reliable company.

Experiencia fantástica: David Avalon was my instructor for the driving lesson and he took into consideration my past experience and pushed me to do everything better. Great instructor and do recommend having him as an instructor.

Experiencia fantástica: Mr David really boosted my confidence and breakup made me freely comfortable and relaxed. I’m ready to be on the road!

Experiencia fantástica: FL Safety Council Drivers Teachers are really amazing staff. All about this place is good, facility, and puntual appointment. Mr. David Avalo was patient and easy to approach with my daughter.

Experiencia fantástica: Instructors were very polite and able to work with me on a personal level to get me comfortable with each skill. They assessed my limits and pushed me to do my best while still making sure I felt comfortable. Great experience.

Experiencia fantástica: it has been a spectacular experience. my instructor, david aualos, was hilarious and also very helpful. i feel much more confident with my driving. thank you!!

Experiencia negativa: Don’t bother calling to ask them ANY questions! And if you do skip the rude Spanish lady who never gave me her name working the regular rep lines and go straight for Miss. Doris because you WILL not get any of your questions answered, you will get yelled at , berated, disrespected and hung up on! I’ve managed hundreds of people and would never hang up or get upset with my client or customer!!! Shameful -can’t handle her job and she needs retraining and if that means everyone needs to retrain because of her then so be it!! Hopefully this gets fixed because it’s not right especially withholding very important information that I need. I had to use my husbands cell phone to call back because they would not answer my number for 10whole minutes. Reps need retraining since they are hanging up on clients and refusing to answer calls. Can’t wait to see what class is like here and what the atmosphere is like if that was me just trying to get registered

Experiencia positiva: Great for driving lessons, kinda bad for driving tests. My instructor kept cutting me off while I was talking and kinda lied about what I did on the test in terms of how I lost points, nonetheless I still passed.

Experiencia fantástica: This place is the best if you want to know how to drive, they have bests instructors, you want to learn how to drive go there.

Experiencia fantástica: Great job, nice staff, cars are sanitized before the drive, impressive work keep it up

Experiencia fantástica: Had Bill and Karen as my instructors. Very nice, knowledgeable, and especially helpful throughout the entire learning process! 100% recommend

Experiencia fantástica: Highly recommend. From the ease of making appointments, reminders of appointments, and the actual driving instruction The Florida Safety Council exceeded our expectations. My son was lucky enough to have David Avalos as his instructor for each of his 3 lessons. David is an amazing instructor who put my son at ease and taught him well. My son and I highly recommend him!

Experiencia fantástica: Awesome experience totally improved my driving experience! What is a possum roster roster Shane Rawson was a superb instructor and told me all about the safety council and all the wonderful things are doing very impressed and looking forward to working with United Safety Alliance Inc in the future OK

Experiencia fantástica: My instructor was Ivan and he was excellent at explaining clearly and teaching me the right skills to use on the road. Overall it was a great driving experience that was very informative and memorable. If you are looking for an instructor, I HIGHLY recommend Ivan.

Experiencia fantástica: My daughter just had a lesson with Ivan. She said that he was a great instructor and that she learned many new things and feels more confident driving.

Experiencia fantástica: Ivan was a great instructor, he helped me sharpen my driving skills and very helpful. He gives great advice and tips so that you drive more safe. Overall, I improved a lot and sad to have my last class with him as of today. Thank you so much Ivan!

Experiencia negativa: I called them. They said hold the last slot. Then I came there They said someone have taken the slot. Bad services.

Experiencia fantástica: We were very pleased with this place. My spouse is from Brazil and I wanted someone else to take a look at how the driving was going. The instructor was very friendly and the experience here was excellent. My spouse passed the driving test at their facility and then went to the DMV to get the picture and license. It all went very smooth.

Experiencia fantástica: Highly recommend Florida Safety Council for hands on driver training. My son who is 15 and a brand new driver really benefited from this program. Rick was his instructor 2 out of the 3 sessions and let me just say, he was the nicest man! He really made my son feel comfortable behind the wheel and help gain confidence as a new driver. Highly recommend, ask for Rick!

Experiencia fantástica: GOOD AFTERNOON VERY GRATEFUL TO YOUR STAFF EVERYONE IN GENERAL HAD PLEASANT ATTENTION...TO MR. MIGUEL THANK YOU VERY MUCH FOR BEING MY INSTRUCTOR I ALREADY HAVE MY LICENSE...I HOPE YOU WILL CONTINUE TO BE SO KIND. THANK YOU VERY MUCH ❤

Experiencia fantástica: They definitely take time to make sure you understand everything and are prepared for the test, they even gave me a mock exam! So grateful for this opportunity and allowing many students like me feel more comfortable on the road!

Experiencia fantástica: Perfect for 4 hour online BDI course to avoid points on license (withhold adjudication) and lower insurance premiums. Low cost, no hidden fees. Good software. Thank you for providing this service at non-profit

Experiencia positiva: It's hard to get ahold of someone as far as scheduling your lessons but I really appreciated Mr. Bill he is a fantastic instructor. He is worth it!

Experiencia fantástica: They did a job well done. They were very patient, encouraging and helpful throughout the whole process and I appreciate them so much. God bless you all.

Experiencia fantástica: I used the testing center to take an exam that allots for four hours of test time. The process of entering the facility and starting the exam went smoothly as well as requesting breaks periods. I did not experience an issues accessing my exam, during the exam or when I was ready to submit. Overall it was a very positive experience and I would use them again for future tests.

Experiencia fantástica: Great learning experience! The Florida Safety Council does a great job of helping students become more comfortable with driving by making them more comfortable with the road and training them to take their driver's test. My last teacher, Shayne, was very helpful and kind throughout the session. Would recommend for anyone who wants to sharpen their driving skills and gain more confidence.

Experiencia fantástica: i throughly enjoyed my lesson with mr.Ivan Borbon, so very encouraging and so patient. 10/10 I will take many more lessons with Florida Safety Council, thank you for such vibrant energy!

Experiencia fantástica: My instructor Ivan did a very good job of teaching and strengthening my driving skills. He also did a great job of building my confidence to go on the highway, which with help was very easy. I would recommend anyone else who is learned by to drive to come here for lessons.

Experiencia fantástica: I'd like to take a moment to recognize the most valuable and outstanding team, especially Pooja Shah and Rick Nguyen (driving instructor). My daughter (16 years old) just took safety driving course lately. The excellent team has made this whole experience for my daughter and I extremely pleasant and worry-free. My daughter was very nervous about this driving course before we signed up. Pooja was kind to listen to my concerns and worries and then recommend Instructor Rick . Pooja was trying very hard to arrange Intrucor Rick for my daughter's needs. After taking Rick's driving lessons, my daughter has gained great confidence and improved her driving skills to be a better defensive driver big time. I am so thrilled to have such an outstanding Instructor Rick to provide important driving lessons for her early stage of driving to reinforce good driving habits. My daughter and I are so appreciated for your great team and top-notched services. Thank you so much again for your excellent team.

Experiencia positiva: Karen was a amazing and the sweetest instructor! But you are required to wear masks in the car at all times.

Experiencia fantástica: Extremely grateful to all the safety council instructors, wouldn't have been able to get my license without them! Definitely would recommend young drivers to take their classes, very helpful and professional. Pooja one of the employee's was a great help, she provided me with assistance throughout the whole process and I really appreciated it. keep up the good work!

Experiencia fantástica: My examiner was so understanding and patient when it comes to taking the road test. At the end my examiner asked me how I thought I did, I automatically assumed I failed but look at god. Thank you so much!! I finally have my drivers license and I was able to obtain it the very next day!!

Experiencia fantástica: Definitely recommend FSC. Most of the staff are very friendly especially Ms. Pooja, i really liked her customer service skills. I would like also to mention the best driving instructor Mr. Nguyen and Mr. Miguel. More power to the whole team.

Experiencia fantástica: Shayne at florida United safety council was absolutely amazing!! He made my very nervous son feel 100% at ease, he was very professional and patient. I would recommend this facility to anyone who asked.

Experiencia fantástica: My son came for behind the wheel for his 6 free hours for being a student at University High.. our instructor Shane was so awesome! He not only made my son feel very comfortable with being with his behind the wheel class but made sure he Explained to him throughout the entire process and was a very positive and pleasant instructor! We are so satisfied and will be coming back in a few weeks to have my son take his drivers license with them! Highly Recommend this company to any student!! 5 star all the way

Experiencia fantástica: I went for a test and the experience was professional and courteous

Experiencia fantástica: My daughter just completed six hours of behind the wheel training with instructor, Shayne. A good but timid driver, my daughter is now driving confidently. I am thankful to have a professional instructor help fine tune my daughter's driving skills. Thank you, Shayne and Florida Safety Council!

Experiencia fantástica: As a long-time driver and local law enforcement officer, I relied on the Florida Safety Council to provide my daughter with additional driver training, over and above what I taught her, to enhance her skills and competence. Through the “Bundle Package,” my daughter received three (3) 2-hour lessons and the road test, which she passed on the first attempt. The staff was extremely professional, courteous, and patient. My daughter is a safe and careful driver thanks to the instruction she received. Thank you on behalf of grateful parents!

Experiencia fantástica: Shayne did amazing as an instructor. Learned a lot of important information.

Experiencia negativa: TERRIBLE!! I was running 2 mint late cause it’s traffic in that area always and I called them multiple times and they kept transferring me to the same person who let it goes to the voicemail. When I finally got there my instructor seem agitated. When it was time to get in the car for the road test, he was rude about it. I was nervous and tried to have conversations to ease my mind and he don’t respond. When we got into the neighborhood, the car in front of me was speeding and came to a quick stop so I pressed on the break too hard , I lost points for that, and after I was going 30 and he claim it was 36 and said that’s an automatic failure. I could’ve spent my we earned $60 in something better. I passed my road test at the dmv in Clarcona. Highly recommend that location.

Experiencia fantástica: My daughter took the three two hour driving lessons with the Florida Safety Council. Her first session was with Rick and her next two sessions were with Shayne. Both were gentleman and very professional. My daughter has health issues and anxiety, but felt comfortable with both instructors. Next week is her driver's license test; I will try to update after her test. Thank you to Rick, Shayne and the Florida Safety Council. One instructor I forgot to mention was Gregory because my daughter didn't get to drive with him. On the day of her second lesson she wasn't well, but we showed up anyway. After he asked how she was feeling, he advised that she should reschedule and not drive that day. He was a gentleman and very professional, as well. Update: she passed the first time and now has her license. Thank you

Experiencia fantástica: Rick n maguel I think driver examiner did a nice job very professional

Experiencia fantástica: I cannot say enough about David. He has given my son 2 driving lessons and more importantly A LOT of confidence. This is the second time we have done driving lessons with the safety council and it just keeps getting better each time. The instructors are patient and easy to talk to. They teach the kids things that I wouldn't think to talk them through. They walk out after only three lessons with so much knowledge. Every kid learning to drive should take these classes! Thank you David!

Experiencia negativa: I tried calling and emailing them for two weeks and I still received no response. Bit disappointed . My friend also tried contacting them for weeks but still no reply.

Experiencia negativa: Cuando fui a preguntar el tono de la recepción no fue el mejor

Experiencia fantástica: My daughter completed the 3 (2 hours per training) free sessions. All of her instructors (Greg Major/Mildred Santos) were excellent. They provided excellent hands on training as well as feedback. Highly recommending to any parent with a teenage driver to have them participate in this program.

Experiencia fantástica: I had a great a experience with my instructor Shayne, he was very patient and leading while instructing me on the road and was very clear with directions. If I could choose him to be my driving test instructor I would most definitely do so

Experiencia fantástica: I had gone for my 6 hours free driving lessons and let me just say Rick was amazing ! He was very patient with me and really friendly .He’s great for first time and experienced drivers . I would highly recommend him for driving lessons !

Experiencia fantástica: FSC has been great! My daughter qualified for 6 hours of lessons through FLVS Driver's Ed. All instructors were very professional and patient. David and Rick were great, offering tips and tricks..and even life long advice! And Lisa..thank you for managing all of the lessons! Highly recommend utilizing this service.

Experiencia negativa: I don’t use this company but they have claimed my quiet residential street as their own and are always blocking the road and have student drivers on my street 24/7. In my time writing this review I watched them block two drivers from getting down the road. Maybe they can be a little more considerate and teach in different places as to not bother people who pay to live on that street.

Experiencia negativa: How is disney and universal opening before this place what happen to essentiall needs... how this place continues to operate as a non profit business is a joke

Experiencia fantástica: My son took 3 driving lessons with instructor, David Avalos, and I could not be more satisfied. Once he got his permit he had been driving with us here and there, but was a beginning driver when starting the lessons. David gave him more confidence, and taught him things that my husband and I would not have known were part of the test. Would highly recommend!

Experiencia fantástica: I had a great experience with this school. I’m glad I found it because EZ learning driving school ripped me off and disrespected me. I now have my license thanks to Florida Safety Council. Everyone there was very nice & professional

Experiencia fantástica: I had a awesome experience with instructor Rick!

Experiencia fantástica: The whole staff was very friendly and nice. I came here to take my road test at the one in Melbourne,Fl. Richard put my worry at ease and was very helpful & friendly. Very good prices as well, would definitely recommend.

Experiencia fantástica: My daughter looked her license exam here. Great people, very patient ad very clear on the explanations. They were waiting on time for our appointment. +++

Experiencia fantástica: My son had a great experience with instructor Kevin!

Experiencia fantástica: David Avalos was an amazing instructor

Experiencia fantástica: Road test was easy and the proctor was nice and communicative. Recommended to whoever doesn't want their time wasted by the absolute hacks at the DMV

Experiencia negativa: Have to call them continuously until like the 30th call they finally decide to pick up...like what kind of service is this??

Experiencia fantástica: Learned some interesting things

Experiencia fantástica: They were all very kind and I actually enjoyed my DUI classes.

Experiencia fantástica: Thank you for the helpful and very nice lesson with an instructor Shanna, she is very professional and positive instructor

Experiencia fantástica: Had three awesome lessons here, each instructor was incredibly helpful and nice. Less nerve-racking than I thought. I've been recommending their lessons to all my friends, truly a great place to learn.
