Truck Driver Academy is a great school don't let the bad reviews scare you away, as this school is very helpful, understanding, and patient no matter what level you come in as a first time driver. Shoutout to Frank, he is a great instructor, Donato, Andy, Bory, just to name a few. My work sent me here and paid for my tuition and I had no issues like others are saying. Thanks again TDA

Graduated from Truck Driver Academy 5/6/22 great experience, great instructors but you still have to put in 100% effort of yourself. Billy

Just Graduated 5/6/22 from Truck Driver Academy in Fontana CA. Had a great time learning how to operate and learn basic skills about hands on all trucks also getting my CDL. The training from all instructors and 100% dedication to the program. From Management to the office personnel ( Ladies ) and all the instructors out on the field and out on the road driving. I can say I had a great experience there. I would recommend this place to anyone looking to get your CDL at Truck Driver Academy, reasonable price but you still have to give it your all on your part=100% Thanks to the Academy for all your support.

5 Stars - Amazing Instructors and an Incredible Experience!…read more I just want to take a moment to express how thankful and appreciative I am for all the amazing instructors who helped me accomplish one of my biggest goals--finally earning my CDL license! First, I want to give a huge thank you to Alex for taking the time to work with me on my driving skills. It wasn't easy for me, and there were times when I struggled, but your patience, dedication, and willingness to keep teaching me made a huge difference. You never gave up on me, and because of your guidance, I was finally able to get my CDL! I also want to thank Ale for everything you taught me. I truly appreciate how straightforward, honest, and dedicated you were throughout my training. You pushed me to improve and helped me understand what I needed to work on. Gator, thank you for being patient with me during my on-the-road driving lessons and especially for helping me improve my understanding of the air brake system. Your guidance helped me build more confidence behind the wheel. Marcus and Juan, thank you both for always being straightforward with me, taking the time to teach me, and making sure I understood what I needed to do to improve. Tiff, thank you for being strict and holding me accountable during my skills training. Even when things were difficult, you made sure I understood everything and pushed me to become better. I truly appreciate that. Every single one of these instructors played an important role in helping me reach this milestone. Getting my CDL was not an easy journey for me, but thanks to your patience, dedication, honesty, and encouragement, I was able to accomplish something I'm extremely proud of. To Alex, Ale, Gator, Marcus, Juan, and Tiff--THANK YOU FROM THE BOTTOM OF MY HEART! You guys are amazing instructors, and I will always appreciate everything you did for me. I highly recommend this school to anyone serious about earning their CDL. These instructors genuinely care about helping their students succeed. Five stars aren't enough for the appreciation I have for this team!

And even on a road learning day you are stuffed into a truck with 3 other students sharing road time. If your serious about your career, I'd go to a school swift isn't sending everyone to. And swift seems to be sending everyone here! The trucks are decent but the school is recently overcrowded

We could have not asked for a better experience with West Coast Driving School and our instructor,…read moreMartin. Since my daughter is 18, she wasn't required to do the behind the wheel training but she opted to do it anyways to ensure she was 100% confident come the day of her test. We did a few Driving training days and then the 2 hours of driving on the actual test day around the DMV and used their vehicle for the driving test. My daughter had struggled to pass her permit test (failed 3 times to be exact ) so obviously she was very nervous when it came to taking her driving test. Martin trained her so well and ensured her confidence was at an all time high that she passed her driving test with flying colors and on her FIRST TRY! We absolutely recommend West Coast Driving School and although the rest of my kiddos have quite a few years ahead of them before they start driving, I will absolutely be using them for all of our driving training needs.

I can 100 percent say west coast driving school is the best ever. I just took my test today and I…read moredon't think I would have passed if it wasn't for my instructor chris. I definitely am telling my whole family about them. Chris is really amazing and funny he definitely knows how to give you your confidence back as well as his dad. I am so thankful definitely recommend if your looking for a school to help you kid.

I have had my opinions about the way they run things here. I've tried to stay positive about them…read morebut today was the last straw. 1. Scheduling opens up once a month and you cannot schedule all lessons up front OR schedule for the following month (something that they don't disclose until you've already paid everything up front). So you're at the mercy of what's open/left over for the month or hope to catch the next open date. 2. No one answers the office line. 3. Instructors inform my daughter Sundays are open but the office gives different information. 4. I had to cancel my daughter's driving instruction because she woke up sick with a high fever, but because it's not a "48-hour" notice, I'm charged a $50 fee OR provide a doctor's note. First off, who anticipates their child being sick 48 hours ahead of time. Second, why would I drag my child out of bedrest to the doctor's? Besides that, the instructors (per my daughter) are nice. In my honest opinion, I would not recommend this company to anyone else.

Brian was her instructor. He helped her be a safe and reliable driver. She had her last lesson a few days pecore her test and he took her on a similar route around the DMV where she was going to take her test. She was nervous on the day of her test, but the lessons kicked in and she passed!!! Thank you so much for being patient and kind with our new driver!

I found Sarah's Driving & Traffic School online. They are conveniently located in Upland. I gave them a call to find out more information. I spoke with Sarah, the owner. Very pleasant and nice lady. She was professional, informative, and answered all my questions. Thank you Sarah! After speaking with Sarah, I was comfortable in booking 3x sessions 2 hrs per session for a total of 6 hours of driving school instructions for my daughter. Booking and payment were made easy online. The purchase is good for one year from the date of purchase. When you're ready for the 1st session, just call or text them to schedule it. They are open from Monday through Friday. Even though their business office is closed on the weekends, their driving instructors are available to teach on the weekends which is perfect for us. Driving instructor, Monica, was excellent and amazing! She was very friendly and provided clear feedback on my daughter's driving. Thank you Monica! Appointment reminders and after driving lesson follow-up were made timely. My daughter has now completed her 6 hours. She's not quite ready to take her driving test, but she feels a whole lot more confident with her driving. Thank you again Sarah and Monica for making the whole experience exceptional for my daughter and me! If you are in need of professional driving instructions, search no more. Sarah's Driving & Traffic School is for you! Highly recommend!!
