“Coming from a driver in NYC — where we’re always on defense — I can say without hesitation that this course prepares you for the worst that can happen on the road. Nine times out of ten, an accident will come from someone else’s mistake, and VDI teaches you exactly how to handle that.

With over 30 years of city driving under my belt, I went in thinking I “knew it all.” Turns out, I knew nothing! The instructors’ expertise, their understanding of vehicle dynamics, and the tactics they teach are truly next level. They’ll support you, root for you, and, when necessary, drill you until you get it right.

By far, this was the best driving experience I’ve ever had — top-notch school, top-notch instructors.

Tip: If your budget allows, go for the SUV course. The skills you learn there transfer to sedans, but not the other way around.

Good luck out there — and don’t get shot!

“We just finished with our second child at Somerset Driving School. It came highly recommended from another family. Khan is great. Very professional, very responsive. Both of our children felt at ease with him and felt that they were well prepared for the road. Our children's friends often had to wait months for their 6 hours behind the wheel. Both of our children took the permit test on their birthdays and ended up doing their first two hours right after passing the permit. Before the road test Khan took them out for a refresher course and took them for the road test. We highly recommend Somerset Driving School.“

“Honestly, the best driving lesson I can ask for. I took one lesson (2hours) from Frank, and two weeks later, after practising a few times, I gave the road test and passed. I really am glad I took a lesson from Frank. The tricks he teaches for parallel parking are easy to follow and remember.“
