Safeway Driving School

I would like to extend my sincerest gratitude and highest compliments to the entire team at Safeway Driving School in Simi Valley. I'd like to recognize the most efficient staff person, Marilyn, who has excellent customer service skills, kind and overall a wonderful person as a resource & guidance to parents. Then I like to recognize, Rob, Mo, & James (driving instructors) for their outstanding support and instructions provided to my daughters during their journey to obtain their driver's licenses. Your professionalism, patience, and dedication were evident every step of the way. The guidance and encouragement you offered helped build my daughters' confidence and skills, and we are truly appreciative of the care and attention you gave to ensure both girls were well-prepared and safe on the road. Thank you again for your commitment to excellence. It has made a lasting impression on all of us, and we are deeply grateful. Larissa, Sophia, and Sabrina Stepanians

Safeway Driving was very easy and accommodating to work with. They are reasonably priced and did a fantastic job preparing my student to drive... and she passed first try! Thanks to Oliver for being kind and patient while teaching. Definitely recommend!

James is an outstanding driving instructor from this school. Thank you, James and Marilyn, for all the front office communications and flexible class scheduling, including setting up the DMV test. I chose this school for my daughter in high school, and today she passed her DMV test on her first attempt. The team is friendly and professional, providing precise driving classes. I highly recommend this school.

We had a great experience with Safeway Driving School! My daughter passed the driving test on the first try. She had Peter and Rob from the Simi Valley office and they both were professional and super helpful in guiding my daughter. The office staff was also very courteous and easy to communicate with. Overall, everyone was very professional and competent. I would highly recommend using them!

I just finished up my lessons with Safeway and passed my driving test on the first try within two months of starting my lessons. Oliver was my instructor and I couldn't have asked for anyone sweeter and more encouraging! Their customer service was amazing as well, I recommend talking to Marilyn, she was so sweet and so helpful with any questions I had. Overall, I would definitely recommend this driving school for anyone wanting to learn how to drive.

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!
