Young Drivers of Canada: Reviews
Fantastic experience: David O. is a great instructor. Patient and professional.
Fantastic experience: My instructor David O was very patient, kind, caring and polite. He guided me through all my lessons and patiently corrected my errors. I highly recommend him to anyone he for sure makes sure you do the best.
Fantastic experience: David with the green car was the best driving teacher I could ask for, so much fun, friendly banter and, so many safe habits and I passed first time!
Fantastic experience: David O is a super patient person, he is an amazing driving instructor for all levels of driving.
Fantastic experience: My instructor David O was great to me the whole time, he helped me pass my test.
Fantastic experience: I really enjoyed the Young Drivers service. My instructor was David Oleksiuk for the in car lessons- He was amazing! I really feel like I have learned a lot from his teaching and feel very confident to take my G2 road test now. He was not only an extremely good teacher and a great communicator (for example, highlighting what exactly I should be doing, what I could improve upon, what we would be focusing on during a particular portion of the lesson, etc.) but also extremely understanding and friendly. It was very nice to be able to have conversations and make a new friend while learning. This definitely helped me as I did not feel stressed or anxious to make mistakes while driving and was able to be confident and learn from feedback. Additionally, the in car assessments were extremely helpful and I definitely noticed an improvement in myself after David's feedback, especially in regards to driving sub habits. Being able to learn from specific, practical knowledge in the form of these assessments, as well as more unique knowledge such as high way driving or steering manoeuvres in the snow really gave me a well rounded learning experience that I definitely think was the specific result of David's amazing teaching and demeanour. Overall, I really enjoyed this program and learned a lot. I would definitely recommend this service to anyone learning how to drive.

Fantastic experience: David O in the green car
Fantastic experience: I had an amazing experience learning from David O (aka David in the green car). Not only was he incredibly calm and patient (which really helped in getting me both comfortable and confident on the road), but he also took the time to clearly outline the steps involved in performing maneuvers as well as assessment expectations. I would absolutely recommend him for anyone learning how to drive (especially for anyone nervous about getting into the driver's seat) or even just looking to brush up on their skills.

Fantastic experience: I highly reccomend Young Drivers of Canada. My instructor, David O (in the green car), helped me become a confident, safe driver. His calm demeanour and easy to understand lessons made me less anxious in the driver’s seat, learn manoeuvres I never thought I would accomplish- such as parallel parking, and the preparation lessons for my G2 test let me pass with ease.

Thank you, Young Drivers

Negative experience: I don't know what has happened to this company, but it's terrible. My oldest had an amazing experience a couple years ago, but my youngest has had the worst experience. The online is brutally unnecessarily time consuming, his lessons were all crammed into a 6 week time frame & now we've waited 4 weeks to find out when his road test is. I can't get a hold of anyone (unless I spend hours on hold) to get any answers. They have my money & now they need to finish the lessons & follow through on the road test portion I paid for. It's impossible to book lessons & it's just not worth the money!

Negative experience: Absolutely the worst driving school. Very difficult to make appointments, driver was racist and very political when teaching our son. Booked their car for road test and it wasn't available for 3 months and will not give refund. Not worth the money!!!!!!

Fantastic experience: Great experience, I've holding off on driving for years because I was extreamly anxious while even thinking of driving. My instructor was amazing, I feel more at ease behind the wheel now. Thank you :)
Fantastic experience: Pauline is a great instructor. Very experienced, patient and accommodating.
Negative experience: Years ago I took the young drivers program and thought it was excellent. When it was time to book my daughter into driving school we decided to pay the extra (almost double other driving schools) to have her attend YD. I really regret this at the moment. I am not sure if they OVER-booked during COVID or are UNDER-staffed, but either way it is difficult and frustrating to setup in-car lessons. At this point they are booking a month and a half between in-car lessons. At that rate it will take over a year for 10 hours of in car lessons. I have tried calling to remedy this but the on-hold wait time is always 1-2 hours. When I finally get through I am brushed off rudely. I have also left a message with a supervisor but did not get a call back. When we original signed up online YD made is super easy to pay and enroll. I really wish they had told us at that time that they are months behind on in-car lessons instead of simply signing us up and taking the money. Friends with kids in another local driving school are not having any of these issues. Frustrating.
