“Muy bueno, el Sr. Ricardo sabe de su negocio, buen instructor, sus vehículos están preparados para realizar una práctica adecuada, totalmente recomendable.“

“I had an amazing experience at Atlantic Driving School! From the start, the team was welcoming and professional, and I felt at ease right away. Coco and Michael were my instructors, and they both went above and beyond to ensure I felt confident behind the wheel. Michael was incredibly patient and had a way of explaining things that made learning easy and stress-free. Coco was equally fantastic--always calm, supportive, and full of useful tips to help me build my skills. Thanks to their guidance, I not only passed my driving test but also feel truly prepared for the road. I highly recommend this driving school to anyone looking for experienced, friendly, and patient instructors. Huge thanks to Coco and Michael for making this a great experience!“

“Ricardo was super friendly and really helped me refine my driving skills. He helped me learn to drive on the freeway for the first time and I was able to pass my driving test! 100% recommend!“

“I’ve put aside the 6 hours with an instructor because of school and during the pandemic I’ve figured that I should get it done. (& my permit is expiring in a couple of months) I called numerous driving instructors in hopes of completing the 6 hours and Trans Oceans Driving School is the place where I felt most comfortable in doing so. My instructor, Sarah, was kind, patient, and understanding. And although there was somewhat of a language barrier because she only spoke Mandarin, she still tried striking up conversations and ultimately was in it to help her students succeed. There were many times where she asked if I needed a water break or anything really. After having multiple negative encounters with past instructors (rudeness, don’t text back, very high pricing, forgot to pick me up...) and finally contacting Sarah from Trans Ocean is surreal. In addition to all the positives, pricing is the lowest out of all the other instructors that I have worked with which is a huge +. Props to Sarah, definitely recommend if you want to learn how to drive & get those hours completed!“

“Prior to taking lessons at this driving school, I took about six lessons with another instructor closer to where I live (Lincoln Heights) and it was a terrible experience. The instructor didn't give me enough info when it came to certain situations and he always kept telling me to just do as I was told. In addition, I failed my behind the wheel test twice at the Lincoln Park DMV (they have a reputation of failing a lot of applicants) because I'm a very anxious driver and my instructor didn't help with the constant screaming and the constant "Why are you so nervous? This is easy!!" taunting. The whole experience turned me off from driving for well over a year. I had retaken the written test and got my permit four months after but left it there to collect dust because I just DREADED driving. It wasn't until two months before the expiration of my permit that I decided to schedule three lessons with this driving school. The rates were twenty dollars cheaper per lesson comparing to the last school so I thought "Why not?" I had Vincent as an instructor and he was almost a breath of fresh air. He was patient, helped me quickly rebuild my driving confidence and gave me a ton of helpful info that'll stick with me for a lifetime. His accent is a little more on the thicker side so be mindful of the fact that you do have to listen carefully. My behind the wheel test was at the El Monte DMV on the exact same day my permit was supposed to expire and I successfully passed it! The minus one star is for the car as it's a little smelly. Also, scheduling lesson times can be a tad troublesome as they may not have a set time for you right away. Vincent also sometimes runs about half an hour late. There was an instance where he even ran nearly an hour late so it's quite inconvenient because you're forced to plan around his schedule. Not really cool. However, despite all of that, I'm glad I'm finally licensed and I wanna give credit to this school for making that happen.“

“My 2 kids have now gone with Alfred. He is really great. Gives them a list of things they need to work on. Both my kids passed their driving test on their 1st try. I always recommend Alfred.

Highly recommend I always refer People of Alfred!“

She was so great for creating a calm environment and using polite corrective criticism I would 100% recommend.“

“I had an outstanding experience at Edison Truck and Bus Driving School. My instructor was a former California DOT officer with extensive experience training not only aspiring commercial drivers but also Sheriff’s Department personnel and county workers, which speaks volumes about his expertise and professionalism.

The 320-hour program is comprehensive and hands-on, covering manual transmission tractor-trailers, Air Brakes → General Knowledge → Combination Vehicle → DMV Permit, in-cab inspections, pre-trip inspections, defensive driving, and all essential backing maneuvers. Training for endorsements such as Hazmat, Tanker, Doubles/Triples, and Passenger was thorough and practical, giving me a significant advantage in the industry. I also successfully completed the Class A manual/tractor-trailer test and Class B bus test at the DMV.

The school emphasizes safety, professionalism, and regulatory compliance, and the staff is always supportive and approachable. Thanks to Edison Truck and Bus Driving School, I feel confident, highly trained, and fully prepared to succeed as a professional driver.

I highly recommend this school to anyone serious about a CDL and a career in commercial driving.“

I highly recommend this driving school if your teens want to pass their test at first try.“
