We had a great experience with RDS for my twins who just got their licenses. We did the package with the online course + behind the wheel instruction. Eric Lopez was an amazing driving instructor! They both felt confident going into their test (with just the appropriate amout of nerves haha). But they were well prepared and bith passed their first try! Eric was calm, cool and a great teacher. He took them to the DMV (part of the package we purchased) and knew exactly what to do there, which made my job easy - just to show up to take the after pictures :) Highly recommend!

Referral Driving School helped my son every step of the way as he learned to drive, from the early days of his permit all the way to taking his test at the DMV. Thank you so much!!

Worst company ever. I paid for 10 additional lessons for my teenager in addition to the regular package. They dragged their feet at scheduling the extra appointments to the point my teen received his license. I reached out for a refund on the prorated 8 unused lessons. I reached out many, many, many, many times to the owner and they did not respond. They took my money and ran. Very disappointed and very unprofessional. Take a look at their 'F' Rating with the Better Business Bureau prior to signing up with them.

We had an excellent experience with Eric Lopez, who was recommended by a neighbor (who had his 3 kids work with Eric and loved each experience). My son passed his driving test on his first try. He was well prepared and learned how to drive based upon Eric's great instruction. My son enjoyed working with him. The communication and professionalism was great.

Full-service driving instructors who even make the DMV driving test appointment and loan their cars to the student! Daniel Tran was fantastic and our son got 100% on the test! Highly recommend!
