Roadrunner Driving School

London, Greater London
General Info
There are millions of motorists in UK who are qualified to drive. An individual becomes qualified only after passing a driving test. Learning how to drive is easy, if one is taught at the right driving school. Otherwise the whole experience can be quite daunting. Learning how to drive takes a fairly short amount of time and in just a few weeks one may become fully qualified to take the driving test. Passing it depends with a person and the teaching method. Choosing the right driving school is extremely important to ensure that an individual becomes a good driver, passes the tests and avoids any accidents in future. There are some factors that a person who wants to learn how to drive should research on before selecting a school

He calm and patient approach made me feel at ease from the very first lesson, and he always explained everything clearly and thoroughly. he not only teaches you the basics of driving but also gives you the confidence to handle different road situations safely and effectively Read Less

I had a lovely and friendly instructor named Yasmin. She was very professional and if you made a mistake she would make you correct it. Yasmin helped me boost my confidence and helped a lot on roundabouts, meetings, junctions etc. I learnt a lot from her and pleased to say that I passed first time. I would definitely recommend her to family and friends. Good price and very reliable. Read Less

Very unprofessional. My instructor is always late for my lesson and also tries to shorten my driving lesson. Dishonest And very unprofessional. I don't recommend this company to anyone looking for driving lessons. My instructor ( Wahid) was very rude aswell and would never listen to me. I asked for my money back and he refused as I paid for 30 lessons up front. If I could rate it in below zero I would. Read Less

Driving instructor could communicate effectively and was understanding...sometimes. At times it seemed as if he would lose his temper so if you're a slow learner then I suggest you go else where unless you want to feel very intimidated. Also, the car that I used wasn't what I would describe as 'clean', so if you're fussy about cleanliness I recommend looking elsewhere. Albeit, the instructor was punctual and given that you call their office to book, their response time can be very quick. I don't recommend booking via the website as they took far too long (3 days or so) to response. After calling in, they called back after 30ish minutes. All in all, a decent driving school with ok customer service but a poor/acceptable fleet. Read Less

Simply the worst consumer experience I've ever had in my life. Instructor was late, kept me waiting in the rain for 15 minutes after attempting to haggle the location and time of the lesson and lied about his location on route. The first thing the instructor (simply known as 'Mo') did was complain that I had paid through the school stating he preferred to be paid in cash, he then proceed to light up a cigarette and berate me CONSTANTLY, making his frustration evident. Pathetic teaching technique and no patience, but it gets worse. Yes, worse than the instructor lighting up a cigarette at the start of my lesson. He indirectly calls me an idiot by going over a lengthy anecdote about how his idiot friend breaks with his left foot as this is what idiots do, despite the fact I was not doing this AT ALL, all of this during my PAID lesson. Shortly afterwards he stops the car to complain I'm not listening and he will be cancelling the lesson. Attempts to intimidate me and drops me off on the road in the middle of nowhere. I was refused a refund, investigation or even an apology for the lesson, and I was left feeling completely disrespected and swindled in all honesty. Even writing this I am struggling to believe how anyone in their right mind can consider this an acceptable service. Do yourself a favour and book your lessons anywhere else. Seriously, anywhere.
