He was not only an excellent teacher, but also a fine human being showing the highest level of concern for her well being and providing the most important and beneficial instruction from all the sources she employed to learn how to drive. She passed her driving test on the first try without difficulty in large part because of his excellent instruction. I am deeply grateful to him and will recommend him highly and without reservation to anyone who wants to learn how to drive and avoid learning bad habits inadvertently from well meaning family members.

I STRONGLY ADVISE AGAINST ENROLLING HERE. The instructors were unprofessional, dismissive, and…read moresometimes verbally abusive, creating a hostile environment. I paid for a full-time training program and spent a lot of my time standing around waiting for a turn to get skills. The class was so overcrowded with students I only got 2 hours of actual skills during 4-week class. they have 3 manual trucks and 1 automatic truck, all of them are filthy inside and are poorly maintained. Save your career and your wallet, look into three other local trucking schools/academies instead.

She explained the process to me and even found ways for me to save money if I was willing to take a few steps on my own ahead of time. The training facility is in Carson City. I attended the school for three days a week, (Tuesday, Thursday, Fridays,) and was able to complete my 100 to 120 hours in a little over a month. it was very helpful that I could make a custom training schedule to suit my Individual needs since I worked on the other weekdays while attending this program. I thought the instructors were very knowledgeable, easy-going, and willing to help each individual out to make sure you were gaining the necessary skills required for getting a CDL. I'm happy to say I am now a legal Class A Nevada license holder even had a job before I finished the program. I was also able to obtain my hazmat, doubles and triples, and tank endorsements through the DMV. So when I took my final test, I was ready to go out and work with as much eligibility as possible. I would also like to add that during the job search the 160 driving academy is very well-known and looked favorably upon from your new potential employers. I found this to be an asset during my job search. Also not having any restrictions on my license a.k.a. being able to drive manual transmissions, I found also to be a big benefit. Andrew

I'll be honest, I was a bit nervous when I gave $600 over the phone for five two-hour lessons…read more Luckily, this school is legitimate. Not only is it legitimate, but the lessons were extremely helpful. Paul was an excellent, kind, and professional instructor (he works for Steve, the owner of the company). One thing I would like to see: confirmation receipts in the email, as well as text alerts for driving lessons. That being said: they will call when they arrive. The car is superior to most other driving schools' cars in Reno (it's a Suburu Outback with all the safety features). It has active warning systems, is probably better in the event of an emergency crash (hopefully doesn't happen), and is comfortable. I'd recommend these people strongly. Oh, and they'll actually pick up their phone after 4pm. That's a nice touch - which is why I went with them, versus their competitor who lied on their website and said they were open until five.
