Safeway Driving School

My son passed his driving test. Yay!!! I cannot thank James and Marilyn enough. They were able to get him in right away. James took his time and was very thorough. Thank you Safeway, I definitely recommend them. Don't hesitate to book with them.

I recently completed my driving lessons at Safeway Driving School at Simivalley and passed my behind-the-wheel test! The instructors were incredibly friendly and supportive. Peter was especially patient and a true gentleman, making the learning process enjoyable. Merylyn, the receptionist, was always welcoming and helpful, which really boosted my confidence. A huge thanks to Ash for keeping my spirits up on test day--I couldn't have done it without you! I highly recommend Safeway driving school for anyone looking for professional driving instruction. You can trust their services completely!

All three of my sons passed the first time. The last one got a perfect score and the person testing him wrote, "Excellent driving", on his test. Thank you Peter and Oliver and the office for making it so easy and doing such a good job. I highly recommend this company to anyone needing driving instruction. The previous review posted from someone else's account that had used my pc without my even clicking on anything and is listed on the wrong name and I cannot seem to delete it. Yelp needs to get that fixed. David Wishengrad

love Safeway driving school specifically Simi Valley just received my license. I'm super happy. instructor James he really took his time teaching me Everything was really nice and overall one of the best instructors out there definitely recommend him.!! /

Our daughter just received her license and we can't thank Safeway and Robert Pierce (her driving instructor) enough. They took the stress out of the process, even scheduling her test with the DMV, and Robert was incredibly patient with her, focusing each session on her specific weaknesses behind the wheel. He had her drive the Simi Valley test routes multiple times, scoring them, and giving her valuable feedback each time. A+ across the board.

I highly recommend Safeway! Marilyn the receptionist is incredible kind, caring, encouraging, and super funny! My son had Peter for 4 driving lessons and he was the best! My son felt very comfortable with him and always came back after the 2 hour lesson confident. Peter took him on the DMV routes multiple times and gave me a copy of the routes so I could practice with him too. So glad we chose Safeway for his school.

Excellent driving school! My daughter loved her instructor and the receptionist was beyond friendly!! Definitely give them a try for your teenager drivers!

I would definitely recommend the Safeway Driving School for Simi Valley. The time has come, that my son is old enough to get his driver's license. I checked around and ended-up going with Safeway in Simi and am so glad that I did. They have been awesome from beginning to end. We're about to have our final lesson and then my son will be taking the test. First of all, the MVP here at the Simi Safeway is Marilyn! She is absolutely amazing, so nice, and so helpful. She always calls to schedule things and just makes it easy. She has always made an effort to work things out for our schedule and for us to get the driving instructor we liked. She also even helped coordinate it so that my son could have his final lesson the day before his driver's license test. This was so he could practice the route, practice the points of the test, and have all of that fresh in his mind for the big test. Our driving instructor James has been so cool and my son loved practicing with him. He is a very cool guy and a good man. He has a very calm, friendly demeanor, and he knows how to work with young people well. My son felt really comfortable with him. James was very punctual, professional, and friendly. He gave us tips and practice suggestions for my son to do in between lessons. There are businesses that do the same thing, offer the same service, and even charge a similar price. But it's the people that make a service great and I'm grateful to these two good people Marilyn & James for making this experience great for both my son and I. So I would recommend them to any of my neighbors, friends, and family. Thank you Marilyn and James!

From the first phone call to passing the driving test, we have had nothing but amazing service. Everyone is very friendly and professional. They want you to succeed and work around your schedule to make sure you get your driver's license. Thank you to the entire team

I was told when we enrolled my son that he would pass, and they would help him achieve his goal of getting his driver license. I sign up for the most expensive part which is seven lessons to ensure that my son will get the training he needs because I'm always busy and I do not have time to teach. My son took seven lessons went to take the driving test and he failed the first time! They ghosted me, so I reached out to them again explain to them what happened, and I requested another lesson and another retake of test so he can ensure passing! They told me it would be additional $180 for the one lesson and to retake the test with their vehicle-so I agreed. My Son failed again. Never reached out to me, never explain what happened and they ghosted me again. I paid nearly $1,00.00 and they did not teach my son anything.! Now I have to start at square one, since I've been riding with him. I've noticed he does not have any clue about driving, and these people do not teach him anything. Being a very busy dad, I'm very disappointed and I feel they took advantage of us! Waste of time and Money!!! Do not consider this driving school for your Son or Daughter. This is my honest opinion about this driving school!!

I made a wise decision when I chose Safeway Driving for my teenage daughter. They are definitely 5 star! I drove her from Santa Clarita to Simi Valley for her lessons, and her instructor James was top notch. Believe me, it's well worth the drive. He knows how to encourage first time drivers, and he is always positive, thorough, and professional. The office staff is also awesome. For example, Marilyn would send reminders for our appointments, and she always accommodated our schedule. Everyone there has a sincere, caring, and friendly attitude. My daughter passed the DMV test with an excellent score on her first try.

16 years in the making! Thank you, James and Safeway Driving! I'll see you in a year with my son!

My daughter just completed her lessons with Peter and passed her test the first try. Peter was incredibly calm and helped her through lots of driving anxiety! Thank you!

thank you James for being a great instructor and helping me become a great driver. He was very patient , always had a great attitude and made driving lessons fun!

We had a great experience with Safeway Driving School! Their instructors were patient, kind and very informative. The staff gave great recommendations and in the end my son passed his test with flying colors. I highly recommend them!

My son recently took his driving test and passed it first try after having his lessons here. James was extremely helpful and my son felt comfortable driving with him. He worked great with my son. I would highly recommend this driving school.

My son recently completed his driving lessons with Safeway Driving School, and successfully passed his driving test on the first try. I can confidently say that it was an exceptional experience for both my son and me. From the moment I enrolled him, the staff was friendly and helpful, answering all my questions and guiding me through the process. They also conveniently scheduled the lessons to accommodate our busy lives and my son's test appointment with the DMV. However, the standout element of my son's time at Safeway was my instructor, James. James is an outstanding instructor who possesses a wealth of knowledge and expertise. He was patient, encouraging, and always made my son feel at ease during his lessons. His teaching style was clear and concise, ensuring that my son understood every aspect of driving. He provided constructive feedback and tailored the lessons to my son's progress, allowing him to improve his skills steadily. James took the time with me to explain how he instructs and what to expect for both my son and me with regards to the lessons and the actual driving test. What sets James apart is his dedication and commitment to his students' success. He went above and beyond to ensure that my son felt confident and prepared for his driving test. He shared valuable tips and techniques that not only helped him pass the test with flying colors but also instilled in my son a sense of responsibility and safe driving habits. Safeway Driving School is an exceptional company. The curriculum is comprehensive, covering all the necessary aspects of driving, and the driving sessions were informative and engaging. The vehicles provided for practice were well-maintained and equipped with the latest safety features. I would highly recommend Safeway Driving School and James as an instructor to anyone looking to prepare for their driving test. They provide a top-notch experience that not only teaches you the skills needed to pass the driving test but also prepares you to be a confident, responsible driver for life.
