“My son took his driving classes with Red Bank Driving school and they also took him to his driving test. They are very nice and professional. I am definitely going to have my younger son also to take his driving classes with them. They are taking all the responsibility and making it much more easier for parents.“

“Five years ago, when our son Andrew got his permit, we contacted Gary Thomson’s Driving School for his driving lessons and road test preparation. We were extremely impressed with their professionalism, attention to detail, and the way they guided us through all of the paperwork and requirements with the state. Andrew had a great experience from start to finish.

Fast forward to today, when our daughter Miranda was ready to get her permit, there was no question who we would call — Gary Thomson’s Driving School once again. We’re happy to say we had the exact same great experience! Professional, organized, patient, and knowledgeable throughout the entire process.

We highly recommend contacting Gary Thomson’s Driving School when your child reaches driving age. Thank you for helping make such an important milestone a smooth and positive experience for both of our kids! ??“

“Thank you Jake and Thank you George!!
I had an excellent experience with Middletown Driving School from start to finish. I left a voicemail on Monday evening and received a prompt call back the following Tuesday. From the very beginning, George was professional, efficient, and accommodating. Because I work full time during the week and rly only able to drive on weekdays, my availability was pretty limited. Despite this, George found ways to schedule my two hours at times that worked for both of us.
Originally, I was scheduled to drive with an instructor I had not yet met. When a scheduling change came up, George asked if he could send another instructor, Jake, instead. I agreed and I am very grateful that I did!
Jake met me at my workplace and waited in the passenger seat. I was extremely anxious and nervous when I first approached the car especially when I saw he was already in the passenger seat- nearly turned around and canceled LOL. However, I sat in the drivers seat and after just a few minutes of conversation with Jake, I began to feel calm, comfortable, and confident enough to stay behind the wheel.
Once we started driving, Jake provided clear, patient, and supportive instruction. He guided me through safely pulling out of my workplace’s busy parking lot and coached me as we drove around Monmouth County. He helped me practice essential skills; parking in front of my home and in my driveway, K-turns, U-turns, and parallel parking.
At no point during the lesson did I feel uncomfortable or unsafe. Jake’s corrections were always calm and instructional, never critical or discouraging. Even when I made mistakes or braked abruptly, he remained kind and reassuring. Jake would correct me, tell me exactly what was incorrect, but it never felt like a scolding, it felt like a true learning moment. During one memorable moment when I turned too close toward another vehicle, Jake quickly gained control of the steering wheel and kept us both safe. His response was professional and supportive, and it just reinforced how safe I felt learning with him. I am still grateful for his quick thinking.
I cannot recommend Middletown Driving School enough. George’s flexibility and professionalism made scheduling possible despite my limited availability, and Jake’s patience, friendliness and understanding helped me overcome my driving anxiety and successfully earn my license. I am extremely grateful for the experience and will highly recommend this driving school to anyone looking for skilled, compassionate instruction.“

“I used this school 15 years ago for my oldest daughter. I was satisfied then and I'm satisfied now. I have recommended North Jetty in the past and will continue to do so❤️ stay safe out there?“

“Never had the pleasure of meeting Chip personally but I paid for my nephew to take lessons and he thoroughly enjoyed it. Chip is also very quick with responses if you have questions or need further assistance.“

“Lou was my instructor and he was patient, helpful, taught and explained everything perfectly. It was a pleasure to ride with Lou. I am grateful for the wonderful driving experience.“
