I went to the COS central location and the test went really smoothly. The lady doing my exam was a wonderful tester and made me feel relaxed throughout my whole exam.
What made my experience amazing was that they made it easy to understand and effective. Also the driver instructor Keith was really fun to be around because he made the class less awkward and more fun... See more

Hello! On behalf of our driving school team, thank you so much for this positive drive test review. It means a lot to us. 🚗
Rick is a Great Person to Test With
Rick was great and easy to complete the driving test with. He was calm and explained things clearly. The only problem I had was hearing Rick clearly when we returned from the test. While he was going over important things from the test, it was hard to hear him over all of the other background noise in the area, like the radio and the other tester and student.

Excellent driving hours experience
While I can’t recommend our daughter’s teacher for her classroom hours, (meandering story teller who didn’t focus on content), she did fine on her written exam through studying online. But I have to give 5 starts because every other experience we’ve had has been excellent. The driving instructors and office staff were great. Thank you!

My teacher Darrin made the class really fun with games, and videos by showing us what not to do on the road, and by showing us how to handle a lot of situations on the road.
