Northwest Reno

I'll be honest, I was a bit nervous when I gave $600 over the phone for five two-hour lessons…read more Luckily, this school is legitimate. Not only is it legitimate, but the lessons were extremely helpful. Paul was an excellent, kind, and professional instructor (he works for Steve, the owner of the company). One thing I would like to see: confirmation receipts in the email, as well as text alerts for driving lessons. That being said: they will call when they arrive. The car is superior to most other driving schools' cars in Reno (it's a Suburu Outback with all the safety features). It has active warning systems, is probably better in the event of an emergency crash (hopefully doesn't happen), and is comfortable. I'd recommend these people strongly. Oh, and they'll actually pick up their phone after 4pm. That's a nice touch - which is why I went with them, versus their competitor who lied on their website and said they were open until five.

At first, I thought this was a great school. I enjoyed the lessons and passed the course with…read moreease. My problem came afterwards, when I repeatedly contacted the school, asking them to send evidence of my passing to the DMV. They said they had; but well over a month has gone by since I completed the course and as of yesterday the DMV had received nothing from the school, neither by mail nor by fax (which I requested). So now I must fax my own copy of my Certificate to them.

Mr. Chuck is an excellent driving instructor. He is friendly, puts the kids (and parents) at ease,…read moreand he is very knowledgeable about the rules of the road as well as DMV laws. He taught my daughter how to parallel park in 15 minutes! Mr. Chuck also takes his students throughout all the DMV drive test routes, so once they get to their actual test, they have some basic familiarity with their route. I highly recommend Mr. Chuck... we appreciate how well he taught our daughter so much, my husband dubbed him, "Dr. Chuck." Mr. Chuck also teaches Driver's Ed in Carson City, and I only wish we had known this before my daughter took the online course. If there were a score higher than five stars... thank you, Mr. Chuck! Our daughter scored a 95 on her DMV exam on her first try. =0)

Unfortunately I can't give this guy negative stars, but i would if I could. This prehistoric man is…read moreill tempered, volatile and apoplectic, and honestly needs to retire or something. I had the misfortune of going through his program in 2024 and it was the worst experience ever. He doesn't teach you anything of importance, rather reads off the book for hours on end and shows you straight up gore, which I understand to scare young drivers to be safe and cautious, but I fear the message was lost. He would throw fits over every little thing, harass students and call police on them over minor things. God forbid you doodle (which for some reason he hates), or you glance at your phone, but he would have his loud ringtone "TNT" blaring every five seconds, and now I literally feel dread and misery anytime I hear that song now. If you love your kid, you won't put them through this. I'm pretty sure he's banned from teaching in my town because of his crazy freak out during my class where he screamed at us, and made students so afraid and upset they called their parents and who came in to sit in, along with the owner of the building to make sure he wasn't still being crazy. I can't believe he's still teaching out there somewhere.

I STRONGLY ADVISE AGAINST ENROLLING HERE. The instructors were unprofessional, dismissive, and…read moresometimes verbally abusive, creating a hostile environment. I paid for a full-time training program and spent a lot of my time standing around waiting for a turn to get skills. The class was so overcrowded with students I only got 2 hours of actual skills during 4-week class. they have 3 manual trucks and 1 automatic truck, all of them are filthy inside and are poorly maintained. Save your career and your wallet, look into three other local trucking schools/academies instead.

I recently attended 160 driving academy in the Reno/Carson area. The office is in south Reno and…read moreStacey, the recruiter, is very knowledgeable and very helpful. She explained the process to me and even found ways for me to save money if I was willing to take a few steps on my own ahead of time. The training facility is in Carson City. I attended the school for three days a week, (Tuesday, Thursday, Fridays,) and was able to complete my 100 to 120 hours in a little over a month. it was very helpful that I could make a custom training schedule to suit my Individual needs since I worked on the other weekdays while attending this program. I thought the instructors were very knowledgeable, easy-going, and willing to help each individual out to make sure you were gaining the necessary skills required for getting a CDL. I'm happy to say I am now a legal Class A Nevada license holder even had a job before I finished the program. I was also able to obtain my hazmat, doubles and triples, and tank endorsements through the DMV. So when I took my final test, I was ready to go out and work with as much eligibility as possible. I would also like to add that during the job search the 160 driving academy is very well-known and looked favorably upon from your new potential employers. I found this to be an asset during my job search. Also not having any restrictions on my license a.k.a. being able to drive manual transmissions, I found also to be a big benefit. Andrew
