Experiencia negativa: I haven't actually been a customer of this driving school, but I just watched an instructor (alone in a branded car and wearing a company shirt) not stop at 2 stop signs and make a three point turn in the middle of an intersection, all while cleaely looking at his phone. This occurred in a neighborhood where lots of kids play outside and rides bikes or scooters in the street. So I don't think this company puts kids first and I would not want that person teaching anyone how to drive.
