Great driving school

Great driving school. After having so many bad experience with a few instructors in the past. I’ve never thought I would find a reliable instructor. My instructor Susan is very knowledgeable and knows the test routes so well. So I passed first time at Wood Green test centre today. Can’t recommend highly enough. God bless Susan!

Great Experience and even more!

Drive Times National Driving School has truly a brilliant professional - Zahid. Fully recommend Zahid as an instructor for anyone serious about driving, with him it's not only about passing your test but being a proper driver and being able to drive the rest
of your life efficiently. He is such a nice and calm as a person and I am so, so grateful for being one of his students! He is dedicated in every detail of the
driving process and extremely efficient and effective.
He teaches that a positive attitude, an enquiring mind and the ability to focus on what is important will have a major impact on your final results.
I would highly recommend Zahid to anyone who would desire become a confident driver !

I had a great experience with Drive…

I had a great experience with Drive Times. I called this driving school first time before I started shopping around and the lady on the phone was very pleasant so I didn’t bother to call no one else and the prices were reasonable.

My daughter had around 32 hours and passed her test first time at Wood Green test centre.

I already recommended Drive Times to a few of my friends and they are not able to have lessons unfortunately due to the lockdown restrictions but they are very excited to start.

I am hopeful that they won’t have any bad experience.

We bought a truck and it is broke down within 10 days of service, They want my payment but my truck is broke down. They will not even offer any type of help for this situation.

Thank you for sharing your experience! However we provide Driving Lessons in North London. We never sell trucks or cars 🚗. Sorry to hear that you had a bad experience with a company but it’s not us. We only teach people how to drive. Hope you will delete this review.

LOCAL TO MILL HILL TEST CENTER

LOCAL TO MILL HILL TEST CENTER

Posted on behalf of a friend

Please beware of Drive Time/DRIVE EASY driving school, I was sexually assaulted and verbal assaulted by one of their instructors.

I paid £560 (incorrectly when I should have paid £520) for 20 hrs of intensive driving lessons.

On my 6th hr he started telling me how beautiful I was and started stroking my leg!! I told him to stop it! But he continued through the lesson.

He asked me why I don’t use my body to get money, and leered over me.

I did an incorrect manoeuvre and he shout at me “you stupid cow” and grabbed my face and pushed me back and the lesson came to an end. I told him that he wasn’t meant to be shouting at me, he shouted back “I don’t need your f***king money”

He contacted me the next day posing as a yoga teacher to talk to me after I text him to say I didn’t want any more lessons with him

I have spoken to the police and they are investigating.

I spoke to a representative of the business who was so unprofessional. I explained the situation and the I had 14hrs outstanding and politely asked for my money back. She said she wouldn’t be giving me the full name of the driving instructor and wouldn’t be giving my money back.

From her reaction I wouldn’t be surprise if this wasn’t the first time. She wasn’t at all surprised or shocked.

PLEASE BEAWARE!!!
THIS HAS LEFT ME COMPLETELY DISTRAUGHT.
i am afraid to leave the house alone as I know he works local.
I wouldn’t want this to happened to any young vulnerable people.

Thank you for sharing your experience Nick on behalf of someone else. As your name is Nick you are a male I believe. This happened in 2018 and sorry for the delay in responding late but resolved as the police didn’t believe that’s not what happened. If it did happen the instructor in question would’ve been suspended!

They didn't have the car that I wanted and they call places around to find and it bring it for me.
