Natomas Driving School

Thanks to John my daughter is now licensed! This school is affordable and the instructor John was great!!! I RECOMMEND!

My sixteen year old nephew needed six hours of driving lessons for his driver’s license. While searching for driving school deals on
, I came across the Natomas Driving School. While their Unilocal reviews are less than stellar, I was able to overlook the five year old reviews and call.

I spoke with Jefferey, who happens to own this driving school with his father. Jefferey was very professional, helpful and prompt. Nothing like the reviews stated on Unilocal.I was made comfortable and agreed upon a price and starting date for my nephew’s lessons. I will update this review after my nephew’s lesson.
So far…4 stars for customer service!

I didn’t have the same experience as the others here. I was happy with the service and they communicated with me great, although I was communicating through email. John & Jefferey were great and really teach what the children need to know about safety and passing their test.
One thing I did like was they do «allow» the parent to come along, although not encouraged since it can be distracting. This is a plus for those of us who are wary of sending our child out with someone we don’t know for the first time.

Same experience as the other reviewer. My son and I have been calling them since AUGUST to try and schedule his third appointment. Every time we call, we get voice mail, or they’re busy with another student, or they ask me to call back and leave my information on their voice mail since they don’t have anything to write with?! Shouldn’t they be taking notes or something? Anyway, I can’t and won’t recommend them to anyone in the future. We had to schedule two appointments just in case one of them fell through. Not a good way to run your business. The father is very difficult to reach, and the son isn’t even around anymore. They’re cheaper than other schools, but you get what you pay for. Always too busy to schedule time with my kid, but you gotta wonder with the service they’re giving me and other parents, they can’t possibly be THAT busy?!
Makes me wonder what they’re teaching the students.

Very unprofessional and unreliable Its a father and son business — they rarely show up on time, and I can honestly say (without exaggerating) NEVER returns phone calls in a timely manner… almost seems like they purposely try to get voice mail rather than talking to the parents. I can’t even begin to mention how many times they have tried to reschedlule lesson appointments with my child. These guys really need to get organized and learn how to properly schedule their sessions with these poor teenagers… it would also help for them to learn how to properly and timely communicate with the parents who are PAYING them instead of relaying messages through the teenagers! I give them an F for poor communication and worse customer service. If your looking for a driving school for your teens… use a better established company that knows how to properly commnuicate and schedule their lessons. I have spoken with other parents who have used them and got the same type of ratings.
