Ottawa DRIVE BEST Driving School (1)

Fantastic experience: My husband used this company for his driving course. Alan was his instructor and he was very friendly and patient. We will use this company again for more practice time when it is closer to my husband getting his G. I also got Alan to help my elderly parents park properly in their underground parking as it was tricky to do. He was again super friendly and patient and very experienced with great advice. Would definitely recommend this school for anyone of any age!

Negative experience: Took almost 8-10 days to get an appt with Zaid, after confirming location and time. He don’t show up. I went to the location called him, texted and he didn’t show up, hasn’t returned my call or text. I took time off from work and had to pay for transport as he says my house is too far. After everything he didn’t show up or communicated. Absolutely disgusting behaviour.

Fantastic experience: I took the BDE. Very beginner friendly, and I even passed the g2 test with ease. Alan is very patient and gives good advice.

Fantastic experience: We booked Alan for one hour session each with my cousin for our full G driver’s test. After the first hour he told us we were doing really great and wasn’t necessary to book for another session. We did eventually book for another session and have no regrets because the day before the test, Alan gave us a pep talk and we gained confidence because of him. He is very strict when teaching which we both appreciate because all his tips were useful for the actual road test. We passed our full G on the first try. We are very grateful to Alan and will 100% recommend him to any of our friends.

Fantastic experience: I started my lessons with Alan in February with the thought I would never get my license, but with persistence and great teaching methods Alan successfully taught me everything I needed to know to acquire my g2. I’m a very nervous person and Alan had the patience and kindness to work through that with me and find ways to help ease my nervousness while driving and preparation for the actual test itself. Fast forward to yesterday… Alan brought me for my road test, and I passed successfully with tools and tricks to keep and remember while driving on my own.
