I wish I would have gotten the experience people say they got in the reviews! The driving instructor Abe was very unprofessional when we would go on drives. He was answer phone calls and if I did a bad turn or drifted a bit he would yell at me and I'm not one to hold her tongue so I would yell back! I honestly stopped driving after his driving classes because he would just freak me out with his unprofessional! Totally would not recommend ! read more

Very professional work. Abe was the best instructor I could of asked for, very polite, kind, understanding and hardworking. He taught my child everything from basics to working on the gas/brake pedals, all the way up to parallel parking. No one could of done a better job than Abe. He always showed up early to the appointments, and my child never felt rushed. I saw my child's improvements so quickly. He never raised his voice and in the end, he performed amazing examples for the real world. read more

I have taken several behind-the-wheel classes with Abe from Manhattan Driving and Traffic School. I couldn't have possibly chosen a better instructor. He is patient, kind, and truly cares about the safety of his students. He'll make sure that his students are 100% ready before they're on the road. He knows all there is to know about California traffic laws and can teach students tips&tricks on improving their driving. I started off with major road anxiety and my anxiety slowly diminished with each class I took with Abe. It was a pleasure and an honor taking classes with Abe. I highly recommend Manhattan DTS! read more

I had Abe as my behind-the-wheel driving instructor. After teaching people how to drive for over a decade, he knew how to prepare the lessons for each person including me. He had an eye on what was wrong with my driving and showed me what to do to drive better and safer. Practically knows the whole city of LA in the back of his head. He made sure I was fully prepared to drive before driving on my own. Passed the CA road test on the first try! The car is fully equipped for teaching students how to drive varying from zero experience to some experience. That helps so that the instructor can take over the car to get out of trouble. He will also help to schedule the exams for you and make each 2 hour lesson painless, even driving to your home without having to go to the office. I was very nervous about driving in LA, but with Abe's help, I feel that I can safely drive in this city. I seriously recommend having Abe from Manhattan Driving and Traffic School as your driving instructor. read more
