Young Drivers of Canada: Reviews
Fantastic experience: Instructor Shawn Knox, excellent service! Very friendly and outgoing, very helpful and he answered all my questions about driving in different scenarios. For anyone who wants to learn to drive or even think they can’t drive and want to get a G2 or even get a recap on preparing for G road test, take the lessons, I highly recommend young driver’s Bracebridge. You’ll come out better than you started. If you have an open mind to learn and are teachable, It’s worth the money. In addition customer service, very crisp .

Fantastic experience: Thank you Derrick, because of you and this wonderful organization I have passed my G2 test first try. Derrick was calm, understanding, patient, and most importantly an amazing instructor who taught me everything I know. I’m in complete appreciation for the amazing experience that was Young Drivers.

Fantastic experience: My experience with Young Drivers was truly amazing. Everything was easy to understand and everyone was so polite.

Fantastic experience: I had the pleasure of meeting Shawn for my g test prep and road test. He was absolutely phenomenal and gave me so many handy hints and tips to make me more comfortable in my driving skills. He was encouraging and empathetic. I had a bad experience with another driving school where the instructor would grab the wheel if I did anything wrong, Shawn never did that once and always communicated with me when I needed to turn the wheel a bit more. Couldn't recommend him more!

Fantastic experience: Shawn is the best driving instructor ever!! He is very kind and funny. Super chill and overall has the coolest shades.
Negative experience: The lady over the phone was very rude. If you don't have a car or parents who allow you to use their car forget about this school. They kindly allow only one lesson per week for the student to "improve". When asked how can I improve if I have nowhere else to practice the lady started threatening that she will have to hang up because I'm not listening to her. Not everyone who wants to pass G2 or full G is a Canadian kid with a car. There are people coming to Canada with 20+ years of driving experience and what they need is few hours of practice and guidance about how to pass the exam and what to look after, not babysitting for 6 weeks. Anyway, regardless of their ridiculous policy, very poor customer service. Go to Rick's driving school instead.
