This review is ONLY for the 16950 W Colfax Ave #107A, Golden, CO 80401 location. I went to take my…read morescheduled driving test at this location. Sat in the lobby waiting for my appointment to come up. In walks the instructor "Thomas" with a younger kid who was the appointment before me, he walked in with a smile and said to the kids mother "He failed, would you like me to tell you why? Then listed off 10+ reasons such as being 1mph over the speed limit and not stopping long enough at a stop sign. I knew I was in for it at that point. We got into my vehicle and I told him I had to start it via interlock device first...then he marked his clipboard. Told me to make a left turn, id signal to make a left turn then get criticized about my speed, hand position on the wheel, etc. Id even say "okay" to agree and then get told not to speak at all during the test. Then we drove through a school zone, no flashing yellow light was on or blinking and there wasn't a person in sight so I followed the speed limit sign 30mph and then he told me "well that law violation will cost you the test" and then I said there was no blinking yellow light indicating to slow down to 20mph and he rose his voice and we began to argue. I told him he was very unprofessional and I would like to conclude the test now and I drove back to the golden location. Then he says would you like me to tell you why you failed the test? I said you probably wouldn't care to hear my response back to you and he exited the vehicle. So I payed another $80 and made an appointment at the Lakewood location 2 days later. My instructor this time was the lead supervisor. He was great. We talked as we drove, I followed his commands just fine and followed all instructions, and didn't get yelled at or criticized the entire time. We got back to the Lakewood location and he told me I passed with a "7". And I got my license the same day. Community Driving School is great, wonderful alternative to the DMV for testing! THOMAS you should consider working at the license bureau printing license plates. If you're trying to get your license AVOID the golden location at all costs. Instead go to any other of the community driving school locations. Thomas - no stars Lead supervisor - 5/5

Great experience for our family. Three younger drivers and parents. We had 2 hours of class room…read moreteaching, which was eye opening and then 2 hours of hands on driving, where we gained confidence in getting the car out of front wheel skids (understeer), rear wheel skid (oversteer) and all wheel skids in various situations. Highly recommended, great hands on teacher who does not mince words if and when you screw up and explains to you what happened and why you skidded out of control. We feel a little safer now and this was important for our kids to learn too.

I just moved to Boulder, CO from SF, CA and had to drive in the snow for the first time driving…read moreacross CO on my roadtrip! There were times it was quite icy and very scary. So I decided to take the class to learn how to drive safely in snowy/icy weather. Michal was very knowledgeable and I learned a ton. The first part of the class involved watching informational slides as he talked and some videos of scary accidents. The actual driving portion was super fun! You get to practice how to handle different types of skidding, and Michal would give you notes on what went wrong and how to correctly navigate. I was not very good at first, but after doing it over and over again, it felt more like second nature by the end of class. I'd highly recommend this class!

And then tell you if you don't pay their nearly $100 "cancelation" fee (because they cancelled you from the class for missing the required in tiny print form) that same day your child will be removed from the program. Oh and you have to pay cash (how? no instructions) or they charge even more money to use a card. I'm sure there are better programs to work with, but they have our money now.

This place is legitimately a scam. Paid $100 for a driver's test. When we arrived the office was…read moreclosed and no one was there. They had a sign that said to wait as instructors might be out doing other tests. Waited almost an hr and called the central office multiple times. Eventually we left.

They can take you from not knowing how to drive a stick or a truck with a trailer to being able to do both flawlessly. Mike was a great help through the process and Tee was an awesome driving instructor. Josh knows how to explain the maneuvers well and get you where you need to be. If I had to start over and do my CDL A anywhere, I'd choose this place 10 times out of 10. Thanks for all the help, I'll catch y'all out on the road!

He covered every aspect of safety and smart driving. As a result of the classes and driving instruction, I feel very comfortable sending my daughter on the road.

Today their driving test instructor failed to mention that the digital speedometer on the test car…read morethey provided wasn't accurately listing my current speed....AT ALL. And THEN they directed me to drive through a school zone. Again, they did this without telling me their digital speedometer wasn't reflecting my speed. And after that, they failed me for driving 5 miles over the limit in that zone because....again.... I was adhering to the speed on their digital speedometer, which was listing my speed at about a mile UNDER the speed limit. They later explained that it was a "newer car" which was preset to list the overall AVERAGE of my speed during the entire trip. Wait, it gets better: Not only did they ADMIT to doing this, they claim they've done nothing wrong and they're still charging me for the test AND the retake of the test, because I "failed". So far, I've filed a complaint with Consumer Protection Services, contacted just shy of a dozen local reporters and Monday I'm talking to a lawyer. I shouldn't have to explain this isn't good business practice.
