Drive With Cops

Experiencia negativa: I saw the introduction of this school on the Internet, and I wholeheartedly sent my children to this school to learn driving. I arrived here at 8:25 this morning. Google Maps showed that the school was open from 8:00 to 18:00, but the door was locked and not open. I could only call to find out. A lady answered the phone. I told her that I wanted to enroll my 18-year-old and 15-year-old children for driving lessons. My children have passed the written test at the DMV and obtained driver's licenses. She asked me if my children can drive? I answered, "The children don't know how to drive, but they know how to operate the car. They can learn by watching me drive. They can tell the functions of the car operating parts, but I don't dare to let the children drive directly, so I want to send the children to this school to learn how to drive." I expressed so sincerely, I didn't expect the lady to answer me like this. She said, "You have to teach your children how to operate a car and practice on the road for ten hours before sending them to school to learn." I saw the brake pedal and the gas pedal in the passenger seat of the teaching car at the school gate, so I asked her: "Don't the children come to school to learn how to drive, use your school's safe car to learn how to drive, and then I use my car to accompany them to practice for more than 30 hours? Is that right?" She answered me that it was not, and she wanted me to teach the children how to drive before sending them to school. This answer confused me. If I taught the children to drive, why did they come to school to learn? She said that the online course and driving practice only took six hours in total. I saw the 30-hour online course recommended by the Iowa DMV at AAAA, and you can sign up for it online. As for how the children learn to get a driver's license, I was conflicted after talking to this lady.

Experiencia fantástica: My oldest daughter just completed the Winter course and loved it. With both classroom time and drive times, the program covers great, real-world material to prepare our young drivers to be defensive and cautious on the road. Instructors were personable, approachable, and funny, making the classroom interactive, enjoyable, and relatable. Scheduling was tricky since the session started over Christmas and New Year’s break, but the flexibility and dedication by Terry was fantastic to get the group through it successfully. As a parent, the communication by the administration of the program was responsive and thorough in replies, making sure parents understood and stayed informed along the way. 10/10, would absolutely recommend to parents of new drivers!!

Experiencia negativa: Never heard of Drive With Cops till this evening. Trucker here traveling east just before Clive. I was going the speed limit and had a car just barely making their way down the side of me. Looked down to see the name and realized a cop is teaching the students to speed, hangout beside a truck for long periods of time, then gave me 2-3 car lengths of following distance to immediately slow down and catch the next exit. There is not one thing in those actions I would want a young student driver learning. Teach them right and maybe the roadways wouldn’t be such a dangerous place. Thanks DWC-5 appreciate you!

Experiencia fantástica: no doubt this is the best place for your kids to learn how to drive. safety is most important here.

Experiencia fantástica: We could not be more pleased with the experience our child had at Drive with Cops! Our child has some emotional and learning challenges and did struggle a couple times during class, but they worked with him, did not make him feel bad or less than, and ultimately helped him to be successful in the class. Communication is outstanding. Terry is so kind, helpful, and very patient with parents who are not from Iowa and do not understand the weird rules for getting your license here. :) You do have to book the class early because they fill up FAST (for good reason). We booked almost a year in advance, and it was worth every penny!!
