Idaho Driving School is one heck of an experience. This is because every person who worked there was awesome in every way, and I felt very at home at this school for whatever reason. So anyways, there I was in the backseat of my mom's car when I was younger, and we were driving past the place off of Benjamin Lane with all the yellow cars, most notably, the Mustang and Camero they had that always caught my eye. Well, little did I know that I would be going there to meet this guy named Rob, and this other guy named Randall, who soon became two of the funniest, yet coolest driving teachers I knew. It sure didn't take me too long to know we were cool. I loved driving the Mustang they had, along with their manual Camero, even though it was a challenge to really fit in there (not like Im fat or anything). If I ever end up having kids when I'm older, I will send them here, also so that they can enjoy Rob's off of the rails jokes, awesome humor, and that you get to go to FastLane on the last day (if you took in person classes and were a teen). Overall, 100 out of 10 experience and two weeks out of my life. I miss it to this day.

Gosh, I have meant to leave this review since 2016. I LOVED this course with my former classmates (some who I am very close with still) and we always speak about Rob and how amazing he is as an instructor! Ten years later and thanks to Rob’s classes I have yet to get pulled over/get a ticket. If this place is still open when my kids are old enough to drive I will be taking them here! Thanks a million, you guys are awesome!

★★★★★ 5/5 (but like… only because I can’t give 500)
If you’re not looking for the best time of your life while learning how to drive, then PLEASE avoid Rob at all costs. Seriously. Who wants a driving instructor who actually makes parallel parking less terrifying and throws in sarcasm smoother than a freshly paved road?? Not me, obviously. Rob is way too good at what he does—like HELLOOO, who told him to be helpful and hilarious?? Pick a struggle please sir. Every lesson was filled with just the right mix of “if you were thinking, you wouldn’t have thought that” energy and “beautiful work, this is why you are the favorite” support. It’s like being roasted and mentored all at once. A literal life skill and a comedy show?? Again, too much.
Honestly, I wouldn’t even dare to put a price on his class—because it’s priceless, duh. The sarcasm? Chef’s kiss. The encouragement? Unmatched. The driving skills? He practically downloaded them into my brain. (Now I critique my own parents haha!)
So yeah, if you like laughing while learning, feeling safe behind the wheel, and not getting bored while figuring out roundabouts—Rob’s your guy. But beware: you will miss him when it’s over. IDAHO DRVING SCHOOL FOR THE WIN! (Rob likes powdered donuts, and I’m the favorite so if he tells you one day that you are the favorite, he is lying).

After being out-of-state for the past four years, and upon returning, I realised that traffic and driving patterns had changed in Boise and after interviewing a few driver's ed companies, I settled on the Idaho Driving School for my teen. She did not have to take the class, but as THAT mom who does not leave anything to chance, I enrolled her, and it was the best decision ever!! You get more than you pay for. The curriculum is comprehensive and thorough; the additional information and personal driving experiences shared really helped my child understand how multi-dimensional driving is. My teen enjoyed every class, made new friends, and loved the in-car experience!! I am grateful to the entire team for their investment, knowledge, and expertise. I highly recommend this company for all new drivers, teen and adult. Thank you, thank you, thank you!!

Best Drivers Ed class/school out there! I would highly recommend and encourage this school to any and all youth. Rob engages the class. He provides an experience that allows kids to enjoy the experience but also teaches them in depth about the safety and dangers of driving. I am currently enrolled and am having a blast while also earning my permit. They not only provide an wonderful education and experience but also have really cool selection of cars. Thank you Rob for making it such an amazing experience to earn a drivers permit!

The best driving school ever. I have got my permit a few days ago and it was a lot of fun. All their instructors where really nice, funny and could explain all kind of questions in the classroom as well as in the car. In this school u will learn how to drive in a nice atmosphere. So when my friends ask me for a good drivers ed, I would tell them to go to silver key.

Your child will thank you! Mostly videos and lectures, and easy 10-question quizzes. All material is learned in a fun and effective manner, though fast-paced. The class head, Rob, also has a very good sense of humor. Helpful instructors that are not too insistent but still firm and safe. Driving schedules are tailored to every student and changes are VERY flexible. An after-school drive in the yellow Camero is the way to get picked up in style. This driving class is the kind of class where students have a fun time while learning to drive. You get to look back on the fun and friendships made in Idaho Driving School, and the last class is held at Fast-Lane where the students get to race go-karts, are given driver's permits, and pose for a class picture to remember.
Just don't get the driving instructor Steve. (He seems quite an a******)

I needed a flexible program for my son to learn drivers ed due to sports and other school activities. My son did the online version that is offered. It took him about 5 weeks to finish the online part and then he started driving. My son always had good things to say about the instructors and loved the cars he got to drive in. Two weeks later, he passed his final drive and is now driving us parents around. We had nothing but good experiences with Rob and his staff.

This drivers ed class was probably one of the funnest classes I've ever attended. The teacher/driving instructor (Rob) was super fun to be around. He makes teaching 32 kids very entertaining. Plenty of jokes, as well as all the learning. On the final exam, all 32 student passed, which in my opinion, says a lot about Rob's teaching methods. Definitely would recomend to anyone wanting to take drivers ed, and still feel comfertable and have a good time.

If I could give a negative score I would. Rob is probably the worst driving instructor in Boise. He takes forever to get back to you, tries to get you to buy his insurance, and worst of all he was TEXTING when he was conducting the exam for our child! We will be reporting him to the DMV. The exam he conducted lasted less than 10 minutes. It was ridiculous. He is unprofessional and dangerous. Do not use this company!

Did online drivers ed with Idaho Driving School. Rob made it so easy to begin that I could start within 20 minutes of leaving their office. Because I could do it at my own pace, I was able to complete the course by the date I'd like and worked around my schedule perfectly. I have heard tons of other great things about the in class option from fellow students and would have done this option if I was able to work it around my work schedule. Highly recommend this company for any new drivers, you won't regret it.

I just finished Silver Key's driving school a few weeks ago and I have got to say that it was one of the best experiences of my life!! I was scared at first about the larger class room setting but I soon found out I didn't need to be! The instructors are outgoing, kind and fun. I enjoyed every class. Rob is an amazing instructor. I was confident while driving because every single one of my drivers were observant and watchful. I made friends with the kids in the class and each instructor. I would highly recommend this school to anyone who wants to concur drivers ed, as well as have fun! (Rob likes donuts)

I loved the class I took over spring break! Rob makes the driving experience relaxing and not as tense as it would be with some one judging your every move. Rob would talk to everybody in the car and turn on the radio. We got the drivers hand book finished within the week. I would recommend this class to the people I know.
