Robert Baez

After living in NYC for most of my life and never needing to drive, I moved to rockland county and was afraid of taking class and learning to drive with people more than half my age. But staff at davids driving school made me feel clam and made my 5 our class breeze by and all of my driving lessons were great. The instructors have this way of teaching you to drive that makes everything feel natural. Never once did i feel they were frustrated or annoyed with any of my mistakes. They just point it out and encourage you. Having taken lessons at another school in rockland that didnt have as many instructors I can and fully recommend Davids to anyone at any age who need to learn to drive. it because of them that I passed my road test today.

Nava Katz

I really recommend David's Driving School, because they made everything so easy for me, from scheduling appointments to the road test. My driving instructor Tom was great. He was very patient and gave me helpful tips to strengthen my driving skills. I felt very prepared for the road test, which Tom took me to, and passed on my first try. Thank you Tom and David's Driving School for all your help!

Moshe Dergel

Leah Rosenberg

I had a great experience with David's Driving School. I failed my road test twice and people recommended Tom at David's, so I signed up for a lesson. After just three lessons, I passed my road test. On my first two tests I got lots of points (something absurd like 90) and on my third I got only 20. I'm also a safer, smoother driver now.

Jon Kakaley

I'd like to preface this by saying that I held a North Carolina State Driver's License for 10+ years, and made the mistake of letting my license expire when I moved up to NYC. Once I re-acquired my learner's permit, I began to take driving lessons in NYC so I could get acquainted with city traffic, but I wanted to take my road test in a more rural area so I wouldn't have to deal with the added stress of traffic in New York. I did a google search and found David's Driving School in Spring Valley. It's about a 1hr train ride out of NY Penn Station, and is about a 3 minute walk once you get off the Spring Valley platform. Very convenient and accessible location for anyone living in the city.

The woman answering the phone was lovely and hospitable, and it really puts you at ease to hear such a pleasant voice speaking over the phone like that. I booked a 45min practice session in conjunction with their road test package.

The day of my road test, it happened to be snowing. When I arrived everyone was very friendly and even offered me a free cup of coffee. My driving instructor (his name was Shai - I apologize if I'm misspelling this) was terrific. In comparison to what I experienced in New York, I would say that he was my best instructor. He understands driving very well, his instructions are extremely clear and easy to follow, and perhaps most importantly - he spoke in a manner that really helped me to relax and just enjoy driving. He also gave me some parallel parking tips that basically resulted in a perfect parallel park every time. Once we got to the road test area, he talked me through exactly how the road test would go, and sure enough - it went exactly how he said it. He prepared me extremely well, and I passed without difficulty.

I will tell you that even for someone who is an experienced driver, the DMV road test is a nerve-racking experience. You basically put your fate in the hands of someone who has total power to deny your driving privileges, and

Alima I.

I want to thank all employees who work in David's Driving school. They do a really good job.
I live in NYC and tried to pass a driving road test but failed. Then one of my friend told me that its easier to pass a driving test upstate, in Orangeburg, so I have started to make a research and found above stated driving school. Thanks to 21 century and thanks God that we have a Google. So after I got in touched with Susan, kudos to her for her patience. We had a very long and productive correspondence during all few months. She answered on all my questions.
Amanda was my driving teacher, she is very positive and kind.
I had one driving lesson with Tina at the road test day. She gave me a lot of tips that I've never heard about and no one ever told me that. She has a teaching skills, not everybody has this qualification nowadays.
The only thing that suprised me, when I was about to make a payment, Susan told me that they charge $5.00 extra if I make a payment with credit/debit card. Wherever I pay, no one charges extra money. The only requirement for credit card, an amount of payment has to exceed of $10.00, which it was. So I paid by cash without any extra fees.
In conclusion, I'm giving 5 stars. Great people, great teachers. Orangeburg is a good location for a road test. Just go for it.
Highly recommend this school.

Sofia Hussain

They made the whole learning process so easy, from booking lessons to taking the actual exam. I never felt stressed because the instructors were always so patient and never made me feel like they were annoyed or frustrated with my lack of knowledge. I was confident on my road test because my instructor had given me all the tips and pointers beforehand, and helped me practice as well.
I will definitely recommend this school to other kids in my area. It was a pleasure learning with David Driving School!

Raizel Volcovics

Driving school was the best investment. I don’t think I would have been such a confident and smooth driver without being taught the skills behind all driving techniques. Each lesson was affordable and convenient with pick up and drop off from any location. A special thanks goes to my instructor, Baila, who had lots of confidence in me and got me to believe that I can do this and I did!

Adebayo Adeleye

I went for my road test on December 11, 2020 with Jack who is a wonderful teacher indeed. His method of instruction kept me at ease and build up the required confidence I needed before the test.
I passed to the glory of God.
Thanks to David Driving School for a wonderful service.

This school is AMAZING!! I had such a great experience. Brian picked me up, and he gave me all his amazing guidance, he is so professional! He was patient, knowledgable, and he explained everything to me and made me so comfortable and confident. I was perfectly prepared for the moment of my test. Seriously beyond great!! Aaron was also wonderful, I was super nervous before my test, and he was so calm and gave me so many great tips, by the time the test started, I felt fully ready. Both of them were awesome. Needless to say, I passed my road test, and I'm thrilled! Thank you David's driving school for having the best teachers!

Aryeh Newhouse

David’s driving school has helped me so much with getting my license and I can’t thank them enough. Shai Dahan goes out of his way to help teach young kids all there is to know and helps each kid individually to become a better and safer driver. I can’t thank Shai and David’s driving school enough for how much they helped me.

Ezriel Blum

The best and most honest driving school in the world.

Steven M.P.

Took my son to DDS and they were very professional from the start. We went with a 5 lesson driving package that included the 5 hour course and taking my son to his driving test. The Driving instructor was a very nice man who was patient and professional with my son. When I asked him if my son was doing well I always felt that he told me the truth and wasn't BS'ing me because they knew I was more than willing to pay for more lessons. To make a long story short I would recommend this driving school. My son passed his test on the first try!!!!

Samantha Weil

I just passed my first road test today. If it wasn't for the 7 lessons i took in this school especially with my driving instructor Tom, i wouldn't have passed. The lessons taught me certain tricks that my peers wouldn't know. Tom was always reassuring to me and always gave me review of the certain things i needed to work on after each lesson. Taking these lessons from Davids driving school has helped me feel confident when arriving on the test site. Tom even went with me to the site. The staff was very helpful in setting up appointments and lessons for me, and making sure i had everything that i needed for the road test. They are very friendly people. If you are looking for a driving school in Rockland County, go to Davids Driving School, and specifically ask for Tom, one of the driving instructors. I have done my research when picking out a driving school, and i am glad that i picked this one.

My 20yo son had scheduled his road test for Orangeburg way in advance. He had taken a driving lesson package upstate while he was at college over the school year and had practiced some with friends, but we weren't sure how he was going to actually take the test, since we don't own a car (we live in Manhattan). The test date was fast approaching and we couldn't find anyone to loan us a car. I was getting nervous. I went online one night and started Googling driving schools in Rockland County, hoping I'd find one that had cars available to use for taking the road test. (I had called a driving school in Manhattan and the only way they'd help us out is if we bought a $500+ package of lessons, which we didn't need.)

I emailed David's Driving School late at night and heard back from them before I even went to bed. They offered to do a brush-up lesson and then take him straight to the DMV for $135. This seemed like a bargain, especially since they know that DMV office well and could let him know what to expect at that particular location. I exchanged a few emails with Susan as the date approached--it could not have been easier to set things up. My husband rented a Zipcar for them to get up there that day, and my son passed his driving test, and had a wonderful experience overall! When I asked my son if he had any feedback for a Yelp review, he just said, 'They were perfect'. Coming from a 20-year-old, I think that says a lot. I highly recommend this place, especially to Manhattan parents! They're really like a friend.
