    I can't even begin to express how impressed I am with this driving school. We heard about them…read morefrom my daughters friend who also had a good experience. The cars we used were newer models and immaculate in and out. We took 5 lessons with two of their instructors (Jack and Yaakov) both excellent. They don't just "teach to the test", but also teach driving skills that will keep your family safe. Their knowledge of the process in the county is remarkable. (the road test in this county can be tough) After each lesson, the instructors took the time to explain to me what my child needed to practice and focus on Their flexibility and availability was key for us and proved invaluable. We got a phone call after the road test checking in (that in my opinion is great over the top service) Needless to say, my daughter passed with a perfect score on the road test. A big thank you to David Driving School for getting us prepared for this stressful life event.

    WARNING: Purchase a single lesson once or twice before buying a package! You can thank me later…read more UPDATE: my daughter loves the instructor. She said she's patient and nice. As long as my daughter is happy, I will leave it alone. I suggested a new instructor but my daughter doesn't want one... let's see how this goes...... First impression. I arrive 15 minutes early for my first appointment. My daughter's instructor arrives 15 minutes late, pulls in the driveway and beeps the horn to summon us. She doesn't get out to introduce herself, there was no prior notification of her being late, and she has an attitude. The instructor drives off after my daughter enters the car and says she'll be back at 1pm. The facility has no waiting room or chairs. Luckily there is one metal bench my daughter and I shared while we waited. Unprofessional is a great way to describe my first experience. For the amount of money I paid to send my daughter to this school, solely based on reviews, I am highly disappointed. I can only hope the rest of the sessions go better since I purchased a package.

Highly trained and professional driving instructors, and the office staff go out of their way to accommodate the customer and their sometimes changing needs. I am an advanced driving coach at this point and when people approach me that have zero experience in a car, I send them to New York Auto School first. And no they don't pay me to do that, from being on the inside I see their true value and worth, I know these people. They gave me my start. TDS is for after you pass the road test and want advanced coaching.

There were several red flags, but the biggest one for me was that I gave 24-hours notice to cancel a driving lesson due to a death in the family. the company did not check their messages or emails and did not inform the driving instructor so the poor instructor showed up. Not only are they refusing to reschedule the lesson or refund, but I was called and messaged (and sent pictures of my house?) multiple times while at a funeral mass. If that isn't the opposite of customer service, I'm not sure what is. That was the nail in the coffin for me.

    I had a very positive experience with New York Auto School from start to finish - from my initial…read moreinquiry and booking all the way to the road test. The services I used included: 1) The pre-licensing course with Joe G., who truly went above and beyond - not only during the session but also by taking the time to answer my questions afterward. 2) Six hours of driving lessons with Mario and Joe D. - both brilliant, knowledgeable, and calm instructors who explained everything clearly along the way. The final hour with Joe D. right before my road test was exactly what I needed to feel focused and confident. Thank you all, I truly appreciate your support and wish you continued success!

I called in very short notice to see if they had something, and to my great delight it turned out that they actually did. It took a little back and forth, but in the end, after about one day, they successfully managed to pen me in for a road test, over in white plains. The big problem with these guys came with payment. I went on the website to pay for my package: a one hour lesson and a road test, which cost $150. However, immediately after I paid at the portal on their website, I was redirected to another page which said something like, "thanks for your $500 payment". Indeed, they 'accidentally' charged me an extra $350. Wendy was really good with apologizing and reversing the charges, but noted me that I could wind up waiting something like, 5 business days for the charges to be reserved? It worked out in the end, but if I had been the kind of person who had a very low credit limit, something like this would have seriously fucked me in the ass. I hope they fix this very serious problem. The car Joe operates I think was a white Honda (civic? accord?) it handles pretty well, though the gas pedal is a little bit sensitive. He did a good job of predicting what would come up on my road test, and was familiar with the test site. He wasn't too hands on, which I appreciated. I ended up passing the road test, so overall things went smoothly.
