Worse experience ever. It took me a while to get my license because I never really needed it. I was…read more19 so I could just study myself and take the test. I failed and had to come back. I came back when it was a busier day with younger students in the class. He was basically calling a kid dumb infront of everyone!!!! Because he only got two questions right. I finished pretty quickly and gave him my test. A few other kids went before me so he graded theirs first. THIS MAN GRADES THE WHOLE DAMN CLASSSES TEST BEFORE MINES!! I start to notice he's purposely waiting till the end but I was still being patient. He finally finished and looks at me ands like " ok give me your test"!!!???!!!!!!????? I was like sir please, I gave it to you an hour ago it should be at the bottom. I start laughing cause I really thought he was joking. He starts looking for two minutes and opening the folder with all the classes papers and says "Sorry I don't see anything here, please come back next week to retake the test"?!?!!!!! Mind you this is my second time coming back and now I'd have to pay to retake the test again!! I honestly started crying, lol I was so confused! Like whaaattt? He was trying to close without giving me my test ??!! so I go get my boyfriend and I have my dad on the phone. He immediatelyyyyy finds the test when we come back in and is like "hahah ok what day is good for you to do the drivers test" I took my paper and left. I wasted my money with these fools and had to pay another place to go take the knowledge and the drivers test. DO NOT SEND YOUR KIDS HERE!!!!! I'm a young adult and he made me cry lol.funny but definitely traumatizing experience. Don't go here. They have a cheaper place in Renton highlands Murals Driving School. Affordable, around the same price!

We only had one or two classes here several years ago: we are from out of town and I wanted my…read moredaughter to have a class with some Seattle type driving. Moha quickly assessed that she didn't know the difference between a protected and an unprotected left turn. He was good at finding out what she needed to learn and had good explanations. I rode along and found it informative to get me to let my daughter demonstrate whether she knew skills without talking too much. Why the late review? A friend was talking about instructing her grandson in driving and my experience here came to mind.

We wish to share our experience in working with the I-5 Driving School to other parents who are not…read moreonly concerned about getting a quality driving education for their first child but also to establish a positive lifelong learning experience with the institution for their future driver education needs. We enrolled our oldest child (16 yo) in the teen class at one of the driver training schools in town. The reason for this choice was because it was located near our home. The 30-hrs class itself was fine and so were the 6-hrs road training plus 1 hr of observation. However, my child was consistently reminded during drive sessions that he could and should go a bit faster above the speed limit, i.e., 28-29 mph in a 25 mph zone but not slower than the limit to avoid folks tailgating him. After having attained nearly 50 additional hours of driving with me, he then took his first road test with the school & applied the " a bit faster" practice to the test which failed him for not observing the posted speed limit despite having attained a mid 80% score on other criteria in the test. Needless to say, we were very disappointed, especially at the end of the test, he was not briefed with details on the scoring, what he did wrong, nor how he could do better. He was given the scoring sheet and told he exceeded legal speed limit, need to do some more practice, and schedule another road test. We then decided to look for "a second opinion" test center for his second try. Our search came upon the I-5 Driving school which immediately interested us with the school's mission and the story of the founders that started I-5 Driving School. We contacted this school yesterday and our call was answered in less than 3-rings! We then was hosted by a gentleman, with first name Nick, who patiently explained to us about the test, the student's needed preparations, and what we should expect when the road test conclude. Due to our son' swim meet schedules, Nick was extremely patient in looking for an appointment/location that worked for us and it was at another location 34-miles away. An appointment was made for the next day and no payment ($35 road test fee) was even necessary! This I-5 Driving School's was so professional and they treated us with trust, fairness, and respect. At the other school, we had to call, left a voice message, then waited for their call back a day later. Once a test was scheduled, we were asked to make payment immediately ($49.95) and there would not be a refund if for some reasons we have to change the appointment in less than 48-hrs. On the test day with I-5 Driving's, we showed up 15-minutes early and we were greeted very warmly by the front desk lady with the name Brandy. She was very polite, gentle, and poised in interacting with us especially she knew how to make my child at ease and in a stress-reduced manner. Brandy then introduced us to the examiner, Sarah, who in a very calming and pleasant manner walked us through the test procedures and even gave us some quick refresh of hand signals and basic rules of the roads to make our son at ease. My son then took the road test and walked in the door after 25 minutes later with a broadly smile and a confident nod that he has earned 83% score and PASSED the road test! I-5 Driving School's service did not just ended there: Both Sarah and Brandy shared notes and spent the next 20 minutes to explain in details what our son did right, wrong, and what could be improved for even safer and COLLISION-FREE driving. We then learned that Brandy is one of the owners of the school. That explained why she was so passionate about helping us in making sure our son get properly trained and become legally qualified to drive. It was a very positive experience for us; we were very delighted and so gratified that we made the right choice in taking the road test here with I-5 Driving School's Mapple Valley branch. We only wished that we had taken our son here for the teen driving class. But at least now we know where to go to, and refer our friends and neighbors to, for the critical driver education & tests, especially for our other 2 kids. We share our experiences herein, with I-5 Driving School, as an input to other parents in their looking for the right institution to rely on to develop their teenage children to become safe drivers. I-5 Driving School is indeed a treasured asset to our Puget Sound community! T. N Woodinville, WA

Don't do it!!!! Save your $699 plus your $60/drive test. This is a driver mill. They will suck your…read moremoney out so fast that you will hear an audible suction sound. The classes are taught online with 169 other students. The drives are easily passed and then they will get you for a million different imaginary infractions on your state final where you'll have to (ka-ching) cough up $60 more. There is no care involved. Their track record only gets worse with time. literally 9-1-1 driving in Enumclaw or anywhere else is better than this place.

I recommend this school to anyone seeking to get their drivers license. Communicates well, he's an authorized testing center, great prices and works with your schedule! By far the best driving school!

I have gotten my driver's license a few years ago in CA and have been driving in WA with my CA…read morelicense until it expired. I forgot to change my CA license to WA license, thus I need to retake a driving test in WA. I took a 30min warm-up lesson and passed the driving test today! I have previously done warm-up + test at a different driving school and failed, so I think I can provide some comparisons between the two experiences. Though I might be biased due to the different results, but I will try to be as impartial as possible. Jason, the owner and instructor at Street Law Driving School, was completely honest and up-front with me. During the warm-up, there was a stop sign where I did not come to a full stop and Jason told me in a test that would have disqualified me so that I can pay attention to that in the test. Also Jason helped me to improve in the back-maneuvering and parallel parking, the two sections that I got points of in my previous test. He gave simple but clear instructions on the steps I needed to take to perform those two tasks and asked me to repeat a few times until I have them nailed down all by myself. At the driving school where I took my previous test, the instructor simply went over the steps as if quoting out of an instruction manual without providing any feedbacks on what I did wrong, then took off points during the test. After the test, Jason went over the points that I missed in detail to make sure I actually have them remembered for my own safety. All of the points Jason took off make sense in the hindsight and are clearly explained. Whereas, in my previous test, the examiner just flat-out refused to provide any explanation for the points taken off and told me I'm a hazard to the road. I highly recommend Street Law Driving School to anyone, especially people who are in similar situation as I do. Jason holds the same standard as any examiner is expected to do, but at the same time, he also shows great compassion and wants to ensure the success of his students for their own safety, whereas, I find many other big-name driving schools mostly care about how to sell you more classes. Just for that alone, Jason and Street Law Driving School deserve all my recommendations.

I've read some of the not positive reviews for this school, I'm sorry for the bad experience you…read moreall had. My experience with this school was superb, took the knowledge test with a group of other first timers, the instructor was awesome (passed). Took my road test with Marty (who I see was bashed in a couple of reviews) he was not only a great instructor but very knowledgeable and patient with me, he even came in 1/2hr early so I wouldn't have to wait a couple of days for the next slot to open for my road test, after I PASSED (90%) he had some time before his next test and submitted my score, I'm now at the DMV writing this review and couldn't be more ecstatic.

Currently signed up and no behind the wheel driving lessons available until December. Classes for…read morethis group began at the end of September. If you want to pay this company over $700 only for you to teach your own student how to drive yourself then sign up! They sign up LOTS of students for their Zoom classes and then cannot provide driving lessons to these students until 2 months after they complete the Zoom class and tell kids to drive 2-3 hours with their parents a week during the Zoom classes and do not offer nearly enough driving classes to go along with the Zoom classes. Quite the business model to make the $. Insulting to customers and students. I suggest going to Burien or King Driving. This is unreal. Very frustrating and extremely dangerous.
