We are dealing with Terri Sanchez and she is blocking our son from taking classes we have paid for for some unexplainable reason. These classes have been scheduled and paid for in advance and she is blocking my son from taking his class for some unknown reason. Drive safe provides a paid service and should not be barring paying customers from taking classes

Hi Alan, thank you for sharing your feedback, and we acknowledge your frustration. To maintain a conducive learning environment for all our students, we require that everyone completes their homework assignments on time to ensure progress and class quality. Unfortunately, your son did not abide by this rule, which resulted in us asking him to return once his assignments were completed. We regret any inconvenience caused, but we do honor your financial commitment. We have provided further time for your son to complete his course. We appreciate your understanding. We wish your family a lifetime of safe driving! ~DriveSafe Team
The team in Boulder treated us so well
The team in Boulder treated us so well! Bobby & Todd the manager, had no hesitation to help with my son's driving exam. They covered all important aspects of driving and driving safety. I am confident that my son will be safe on the roads as a defensive driver. Thank you Bobby & Todd as well as the Boulder Team for making driving safe!

Hi David, thanks again for taking the time to share your feedback about our instructor. Thanks for choosing DriveSafe and we wish your family a lifetime of safe driving!
Professional staff and helpful representatives for parents
The instructors were professional and helpful. Staff assisting on the phone were so accomodating. Appreciated the flexibility with scheduling. Wish there were more hours available for training at the Greenwood Village location. Kevin was the best tester and trainer. Felt trainers were adaptive for special circumstances.

Thank you Deb and DriveSafe
I will soon have a teen driver in the house. Drivesafe has been a fantastic resource. The website for scheduling is improving. I have really enjoyed talking to the Drivesafe team on the phone. They have been so helpful. Deb, in particular, was fantastic. She was so friendly and knowledgeable that our conversation made my day. Thank you!

Love DriveSafe Driving School. Schedules and expectations are well thought out and applied. My son is nearly completed with his entire experience. Really loved Diana over at the Arvada location. She was so helpful, positive, and easy going (which helps with new drivers) and gave my son good tips during his 2-hour driving sessions. Definitely recommend.

These are expensive classes and during their driving training they do not cover driving rules/regulations that they test kids on during their driving tests. Not having that background is enough for the same instructors to fail kids on their driving tests. (This is specific to how to use pull out lanes with adjacent bike lanes--which is either not that important because no one actually uses them as designed or of the upmost importance because the testers engage them multiple times so that they become an auto fail if not done correctly.) They provide cars with poor traction and then automatically fail tests if there is any tire slippage when accelerating from stops on snowy roads and they do not allow the use of cars with appropriate traction. Finally, the staff tried to point us to walk in testing at their other school based centers and these centers do not actually provide that service.
If the goal is to examine if kids have the skills to be safe on the road they are focusing on the wrong points. If the goal is to milk money from a system where they take advantage of state mandates, they are doing a great job.

Hi Spencer, thank you for sharing your feedback with us.
DriveSafe’s curriculum is regularly updated with Colorado driving laws, and best-practice techniques, that meet state driving requirements in both our Driver’s Education classes and our Behind-the-Wheel lessons. We see your son completed 30 classroom hours and 6 behind-the-wheel hours before his license test. We can confirm that the rules and skills you mention are covered in our curriculum, and all our courses meet State Requirements.
The Drive Test route is designed and certified by the state department and requires our DriveSafe instructors to report on a stringent set of standards. Your son did not pass due to 23 skill standard violations, 3 traffic law violations, and a serious action. Each of these totals alone result in an automatic failure. For training and reviewing purposes, DriveSafe does record students’ test drives, and we’d be more than happy to review the video with you and your son for any further clarification.
We acknowledge that correct use of lanes (specifically when bike lanes are present) is imperative for safety. While we agree that sadly many drivers do not share the road correctly, it is still our responsibility to teach and report on these standards that are set forth by the state. They are designed this way to help students understand how to drive more safely, in the interest of themselves and others who share the road. There have been multiple updates to bike lane laws in Colorado in the last few years, in response to few roadway users abiding to safety precautions, thus the importance for the state and our certified instructors to teach, test, and reinforce the importance of such laws.
Regarding your comment on vehicle traction: while we do not use 4WD vehicles for our drive test appointments, we do adhere to a strict maintenance policy which includes having optimal tire tread depth and pressure. As previously mentioned, drive test standards, as set by the state, do deem a slip, spin, or slide of the tires as an automatic failure as it is a serious action if the driver loses control of the vehicle. We can understand your frustration with this rule given the season, however, your son failed for other reasons not just related to this standard.
Regarding your comment on walk-in testing, we apologize if there was a misunderstanding. Our team mentioned that DMV walk-ins are not in effect except for one of the south DMV offices.
Lastly, our company’s mission is to help meet your son’s driving needs, whether that is taking another test, or encouraging you to shop for services elsewhere. Our interest is aligned with students passing, but even more so, with everyone's safety on the road. We respect we may have differences in opinion, but regardless, we wish you and your son a lifetime of safe driving.
Top notch driving school
This is our family's second successful experience with DriveSafe. The instructors are friendly and knowledgeable and the customer service is wonderful. Highly recommend!

Great experience!
The DriveSafe team took great care in assisting our family. They took the extra time to help me navigate the DMV website for our girls to get their driving permits following them passing their tests. And they didn't hesitate to give accommodations to our daughter who is on an IEP at school. They worked with us so she could take the test and have it read out loud to her. They also celebrated sincerely the joy of her success in passing!

Find somewhere else
This is the second time using this location. Both times the scheduler has incorrectly input the schedule we agreed to verbally.
This last time we showed up for a lesson and it was listed for a test. I asked what would happen if we took the test and failed. They said the package I bought comes with two tests - ok then let’s try the test. The student failed the test. No big deal, we rescheduled the correct lesson and a future test. The student passed and we went to the dmv. The dmv told us that we were going to be charged extra ($50) because she failed the test.
The drive school messed up the schedule, No one at the drive school told us that if she failed the test that there could be potentially added fees at the dmv. If they did, then we wouldn’t have taken the test that day.
My other big problem with this school is they don’t take the drivers test on any highway. This is so important where we live and is a big gap in their system.

Hi Lauren, thanks for sharing your feedback. We apologize for the frustrations and misalignment on scheduling. Regarding the DMV, because we are two entirely separate businesses, with separate policies, we were not aware of the fees associated with a failed test. We are however, instructed by the DMV to direct our customers to their information pages, for any matters concerning their services which you can find here: https://mydmv.colorado.gov/_/ We’re sorry we didn’t direct you to their page sooner so you could learn about their policies in advance.
Lastly, we are required to follow the driver’s test route that is set forth by the State, and highway driving is not included in that test route. While we don’t have control over the driver’s test route, we do understand the importance of gaining driving experience on the highway. This is why we recommend students practice with their guardian, or book a lesson with us for more training.
Ultimately, we’re glad your student was able to pass their driver’s test and we wish you both a lifetime of safe driving! Best of luck
It was impossible to get drive times…
It was impossible to get drive times that my child could attend without missing school for drive times. I even called months ahead of time and still could not find drive times! My son used this same program 2 years before and this was not the case. It was very convenient and service oriented. I get that there was a shortage of staffing this last year, but it was absolutely ridiculous how hard it was to schedule drives. We ended up doing all the drives in one week over spring break, and still had to drive all over Colorado to get the 3 drives. Even though I had called months a head of time to book them

Hi Erin, thank you for your honest feedback and we apologize for the challenges. We are working hard to address the increasing demand for driver’s education. We have hiring and recruitment efforts in place on an ongoing basis to fill more positions for driving instructors. We wish this process could be expedited, but in an effort to qualify and state certify our instructors it takes time. As you can imagine, we are equally frustrated when we cannot service our community as quickly as we would like. We are glad we were finally able to schedule your child’s drives and thank you for your willingness to commute. Thank you for your patience, and we wish you the best!
