I can't say enough good things about Southbury Driving Academy Learning to drive felt way less intimidating thanks to their patient and knowledgeable instructors. Being able to do the 8-hour alcohol test online was a lifesaver with my schedule, and the price was seriously the best around! The customer service went above and beyond – quick email responses and super helpful. From the moment I walked in, I felt welcomed and they clearly explained all the test options and prices. I even reached out months later needing a certificate copy, and they helped me print it right away! I'm so grateful for their support and will absolutely recommend it to anyone who needs a great driving school." Read Less

I took 12 hours of driving lessons with this school, but I took my driving test with a different driving school. I passed my driving test, and I believe that I was able to accomplish this because of all of the help that I received from the driving instructors. While I’m grateful for their help in preparing me for my test, I have to give this business a three star review. With the exception of two specific instructors, the driving instructors are not at all on the same page about how to drive. There were a multitude of occasions where I received conflicting information about driving and the laws of the road, and had to resort to using Google and YouTube to piece it all together. One instructor literally told me that you don’t need to use your turn signals when reverse parking after you’ve pulled over to the side of the road. That statement (and many others) were in DIRECT conflict with everything that I’ve ever been taught about driving. In addition to the inconsistencies between the instructors, this business is very disorganized. They attempted to schedule me at any time despite me repeatedly explaining my available hours, and they even rescheduled one of my driving lessons without telling me. On a positive note, they were quite flexible when it came to rescheduling lessons that they had scheduled improperly, as well a lesson that I had to cancel. Lastly, the owner of this driving school had an unfortunate habit of touching and tapping my arm whenever he was talking. At first, it was a mild annoyance, until one day, he suddenly and forcefully grabbed my wrist and squeezed it very tightly. When I tried to pull my arm from his grip, he proceeded to dig his thumb and his fingernails into my skin. Luckily, this all happened while the car was in park, so I was eventually able to rip my arm from his grasp. I do not believe that he intended to harm me, but there is no reason that he should’ve been touching me to begin with. Read Less

I use this company through Veyo for medical transportation. They are by far The best service I've ever had the pleasure of using. The cars are always spotless, the drivers prompt, and the texts you get saying they are on the way or have arrived is the most convenient, efficient, and just plain brilliant system I've seen. This way you don't have to wait in the cold. Every driver I've had has not only been just polite, but personable and a joy to converse with. Or, if you prefer to read they just listen to the radio. My favorites are Kenneth and Greg Jr but everyone is great. They're safe drivers but not slowpokes. They don't have me gripping The armrests like some of the cabs I've been in. Hands down the best service. They are also caring, kind people. I don't wAnt anyone to get in trouble so I won't say a name, but on one of my trips recently I was telling my mother how the office won't let me come back for the pre surgical testing I need, or at all, unless I made a $5 payment toward a bill my insurance hasn't paid yet. I'm disabled But not yet collecting disability, nor do I get SNAP or cash assistance. I literally had 38 cents and the woman called me a liar and said I must have money for food and clothing etc. I explained I'm living with my mother and were both surviving on her disability which barely covers the rent and leaves us with very little for the month. I told her I don't eat for days until it's a necessity at which point I have to dig through people's trash to find recyclable items just to eat. I was extremely embarrassed and she made me feel like trash myself and still refused to allow me to return go the care unless I brought a certain dollar amount toward payment. So I left the office in tears, feeling like a lower form of life and not knowing what I was going to do to get the care I need. I told my mother all of this on the ride home. When we got out of the cab I told the driver thank you and to have a nice safe day and went to my door. Before I could enter they honked so I went back thinking I must have left something. They rolled down the window and held a hand out with the exact amount the office insisted I pay in order to come back. I tried not to take it, I told them it wasn't necessary, it's my problem I will figure it out but they insisted. Recognizing the kind heart of this person and realizing they wouldn't take no for an answer I took it because as they said "Everyone just needs a little help sometimes". I will make sure the money gets back to them as soon as the next disability cycle hits, because they work hard for their money. But I wanted people to hear this story to know that the people who work for this company care. They wanted to make sure I got the medical care I needed and now thanks to them I can. They are a great company with excellent drivers who really care about the people they are driving. Request them before anyone else. They are the kind of company that deserves your business. Read Less
