Reviews of McGinnis Driver Safety Centers (Driving School)

I had such an amazing experience with McGinnis! I lost my wallet right before my driving test and they were willing to and able to work with me on still being able to get my paperwork. They went above and beyond for me. The driving test itself was amazing! He didn't bring a clipboard or the paperwork so it wasn't stressing. He was very soft spoken and kept up a very calming conversation. It was all very wonderful. Definitely well worth the money!!! Thank you guys!!!

I signed up and paid for five private lessons for my grandson. He went to and loved the first lesson. He failed to show up to the second lesson (after eight weeks) and did not give proper notice. There is a cancellation fee of $35 plus tax if you don't cancel on time. I called McGinnis and spoke to a very pleasant, professional, and helpful young woman, I believe her name is Lisa. She helped me get a refund for the balance of the unused classes minus the fees, of course. This is a very professional business and I would definitely do business with them again. Hopefully, my younger grandson is more mature and responsible than my older grandson. Anybody who complains about this business needs to try teaching a bunch of teenaged brats how to drive. Not a simple feat so I consider this a very professional place. I highly recommend.

They make learning fun and I think most appreciate that. I don't know where most of these bad reviews are coming from but I personally think it is ridiculous. If you want your child to go to a good driving school who gets the job done; I personally suggest you come here. But instead of just my suggestion, why don't you go there and see for yourself. (They are harmless)

If there was an option for something less than one star, that would be what i would rate McGinnis, the staff is extremely unprofessional, unreasonable, disrespectful and impatient. I called my girlfriend on my lunch break because I knew she was taking the driving course offered there for $60. She’s been talking about it all week long prior to taking it, I was expecting things to go well but she told me that the instructor had Made her cry, and was billitlling her for apparently simple mistakes and yelling at her. She told me he had at one point grabbed the steering wheel out of her hand. In addition to his saracstic comments and unnecessary unprofessional-ness, the lady receptionist had rudely interrupted me while I called to talk about the situation with them and told me that “ the call was going to go how she wanted” and then proceeded to interrupt me just to make her point heard. I would strongly recommend going elsewhere to have classes or driving courses taken.

I had a good experience with them. Today if I’m a good driver it’s just because of the driving teachers. They’re really calm and patience with every single student. They’re just awesome

Wow, the old lady that answers the phone is extremely rude. I second you on the, "who needs to be treated like a second-class citizen? Who actually pays to be condescended to?" Well not me either. I had some good experiences with McGinnis School of Driving up until i had to speak to the older women who is currently taking calls for your office. If the lady is not your wife or family than i suggest getting rid of her. Cause man is she driving customers towards wanting to deal with other companies after being spoken to and condescended to like she is doing. This lady spoke to me as if everything was my fault and that i should know the information already. I suggest going elsewhere until this lady is fired unless you want to be degraded and talked down to

I came to this location excited and ready to learn how to drive. Little did I was going to be judged for being poor and embarrassed in front of a class with about 20 students. David mcginnis is a judgmental, dicriminating, belittling human being. He tried to make me feel lower than him because I couldnt pay for the driving class myself. I was sponcered by sombody so I wouldnt have to pay out if pocket. I was not aware there was a wrong answer to his question. He yanked me out of class, told me I disgusted him, kept my money and kicked me out permenitly . then talked to my mom on the phone like she was stupid and less than. We are low income but we are good people and all I wanted was to learn how to drive before my 21st birthday. All of this started after i declined a ride home from him (what male teacher asks their female teenage students if they need a ride home?) If you are low income or you have a sponserer i suggest any driving school but this one. He dosent need your money, $800 is pocket change to him, he made that very clear to his class.

Our son got excellent driver training here. Instructors far better than what his friends got in other less expensive schools. Highly recommend. Shame they only use clunky American cars.
