Carmen Driving School

Really great school that apparently is under new management and they are doing an excellent job. Would recommend anyone looking for a good driving school with decent prices. I was a little skeptical after reading the previous reviews but this was not my experience at all. I learned quickly and passed my road test and the staff was delightful.

This is by far, the worst business I have had the misfortune of coming across. I went here for my 5 hour course thinking that this would be a simple errand on a Saturday afternoon but boy was I wrong. The first thing I noticed when I stepped in the door to this so called school was the slew of boxes, barrels, buckets and junk that littered the place. There were only 3 chairs in the room where we had to watch the 5 hour drivers Ed movie, which meant that I had to stand for all of it. After the movie was done I got up to claim my MV-278 certificate and the lady at the desks tells me that I need to wait a week because they ran out of certificates the week before. At no time before I paid them did they mention that they did not have the certificate that I needed. On top of it all they said that I would have to come back Monday - Friday between 9am and 6pm, for someone who works a 7am - 5pm shift downtown everyday this would mean I now need to take off early from work. After all of this I figure I would just wait the week and be done with it, little did I Know that it would take me a full two weeks and 3 trips down to their office to actually get what I originally came for. The best part about it all is that I brought my displeasure regarding my situation up to the manager there and instead of helping me or apologizing he turns around and starts insulting me and even goes as far as calling me a liar to my face!!! Worst business I have everrrrrr had the misfortune of working with. I would avoid this place like I would avoid a Hobo with a shotgun!
