Introduction

Remember the three Es. 1. Experience, we have been teaching since 1980 2. Experience, real teaching that makes you an experienced better driver. 3. Experience, passed on to you for a GREAT EXPERIENCE. Established in 1980, few schools have that experience. The owner is the longest serving President of the entire Driving School Association of California and is one of the oldest members of the Association. We maintain a safe fleet of cars. Our drive test passing rate is by far one of the highest in the industry for first time tests. The owner was also a DMV certified examiner and really knows how the drive test works. Our instructors for the most part have years of experience collectively over 100 years. If you want to learn how to drive safely for the rest of your life you have come to the right school, and we look forward to making you great Drivers. The fact of knowing we have contributed significantly to making our roads and drivers safer and saved countless lives in the process is our greatest reward. Bringing peace of mind to parents and students a like is a pure delight.

Dollar Driving School helped my son pass his test with minimal negative points. Monica in the office was very thorough, responsive, and professional. Jared, the instructor, was awesome. My son mentioned he was patient and a great teacher. If you want quality, go to Dollar!

The experience was far more supportive and reassuring than any other driving lesson experience I have had. The professionalism from working with my limited schedule for lessons to the driving instructor being incredibly supportive/reliable is exactly what many businesses should aspire to. I highly recommend Dollar Driving School to anyone expecting professional lessons as well as a professional owner. 10/10 in all aspects and I can only say that they fulfill all traits from their work ethic, professionalism, responsiveness, value and punctuality.

I would recommend them to anyone! The owner was very responsive and hands on when I first registered. My instructor Sebastian is suppose to be a new instructor, but it felt like he’d been doing this for years. He is amazing! Driving never felt stressful, and he went above and beyond to teach me not just wanted I needed to know for my driving test, but so much more!! So happy I signed up with them.
