My son attended Daytona Driving School for approximately three months, and our experience was nothing short of frustrating. While the lessons started off decently, the instructor stopped contacting us after only 5 or 6 lessons. It took more than five calls just to get a response and find out when lessons would resume. When the instructor finally started communicating again, it was sporadic at best. He rarely responded to messages and would often schedule lessons last-minute, making it difficult to plan anything. My son did manage to complete his lessons, but the issues didn’t stop there. Yesterday, at 1 PM, I was informed that his road test was scheduled for 8 AM today—a mere 19 hours’ notice. This left us scrambling to prepare. At 8 AM this morning, the instructor called to ask about paperwork, only to mention a document we had never been told was needed. This oversight meant my son couldn’t take the test, but the instructor still demanded payment. We informed him that we’d be rescheduling the test ourselves and that the funds he used to book the road test could cover the 15 minutes he spent with my son this morning. However, instead of conducting a proper pre-test lesson as promised, all they did was drive to the test site—no instruction at all. This entire experience has been a nightmare. The lack of professionalism, poor communication, and overall disorganization make Daytona Driving School a complete waste of time and money. I wouldn’t recommend this school to anyone—not even my worst enemy. Save yourself the headache and go elsewhere. Read Less

I received my driver's license at the age of 46. And for this I thank and credit Dayton Driving School. Thank you for the motivation and belief during all the time I was learning to drive. I want to thank Phil (your grind and slip technique helped during the exam) and Bob (thank you for teaching me to be a careful driver) separately. I want to thank Ray especially for all the help thanks to which I have my license. Definitely recommend this school. One of the best schools in the area. Read Less

The driving instructors were great, but the woman who answers the phone is terrible! I believe her name is Mary. She was so rude, constantly giving attitude to me and my daughter. We constantly had to call this woman and she would never pick up or get back to us. Every conversation we had with her, she was very impatient and didn’t want to answer our questions. I would not attend this school unless you want to wait weeks for a class or a phone call. Mary is a real bitch. Read Less

My son went there last night for a 5 hour class with some friends.  He came home shocked and upset that the teacher, owner Raymond Juliano was harassing and making fun of another attendee in the  class who was a little older, from the Ukraine (he  thinks) and did not speak English well.  This went on for hours and Mr. Juliano needs to apologize to that other student and his behavior is disgusting and egregious.  How dare Mr. Juliano take someone's money for a course and proceed to publicly humiliate that person for hours in front of a class!  SHAME ON YOU!!

I would like to thank the staff at Daytona Driving School for being so patient with me. The secretary has done more than an awesome job at returning all of my calls , she always made sure I was scheduled at all times her personality is simply warm and gentle. My instructor Bob worked very closely with me he took his time and was very patient. Its amazing how I went from NO driving experience not knowing anything about the roads or a car. I did not even know how to start a car, I did not know where the gas and break pedals were not even how to signal. I went from the most terrified person on the road to feeling safe and confidant on the road and passed my first road test exam yesterday 12/13/16 . The onsite classes where very useful and informative the whole experience is not a waste of time. I am truly grateful to the staff and the company it self. Highly recommended. Thank you all.........

I was very pleased with the overall experience - the staff was accomodating - the few times I had to reschedule my lessons, they found a time that was suitable for me. The instructors did an incredible job with preparing me for my road test - I passed on my first try! I can proudly say that I am a safe driver thanks to the staff of Daytona driving school.

They never answer the phone and if you are unfortunate enough to sit through their five hour class I feel sorry for you. My girls took their class and could stop criticizing their lack of professionalism, rudeness and scare tactics the whole way home. One of my girls was literally shaking and in tears by the time we got home from the way they presented the material. Additionally, they were discriminatory and rude to non-English speaking participants in the class. They have no business operating. Read Less

Honestly had the worst experience here. The people were unprofessional and rude. They took my 5 hour sheet and then told me they lost it so I had to pay $17 to get it back. Also, Mary the receptionist literally never answers the phone so it's nearly impossible to get in touch with this place of businesss. Not sure why her job is answering phones if it always gets sent to voicemail. Oh well. Read Less

The most unprofessional school I experienced yet. Not sure what looks worse? The car or the instructor? The male who arrived to pick up my child was sloppy looking and rude. If you are looking for a school to build up your childs confidence THIS IS NOT THE SCHOOL. He was so unprofessional with his negative comments and tactics of teaching. Also no one ever is available to answer the phone when you call the office. Read Less

Your son hit the other drivers car & did not want to call the police or file a claim on his insurance. Your son offered the driver HE HIT $200.00 for the damages he did to his car. Your son is smarter than you are. He is 18 years old & does not need an accident claim in his name on his or your insurance.This driving school has been in business for many years & has an excellent reputation. Read Less

This driving school just stole my son's money. One of the drivers intimidated my son after a minor traffic accident. The driver told my son that he should give him $200 or else his insurance will go up. As a fairly new driver and just over 18, he believed the driving school instructor. NOT ONLY DID THIS MAN TAKE HIS MONEY, BUT HE ALSO TOOK HIS INSURANCE INFORMATION! My husband went to the driving school to confront them and he told him to "sue them". What a crooked group you are. You are a driving school and most of your clients are teens. How dare you intimidate someone in your target client group. Read Less

Daytona Driving School is awesome! I shopped around and what I found was that this school was reasonably priced. But what I loved even more was that the people there were amazing. The instructors were kind and informative when they took my son out for his lessons and Mary who works in the office was ALWAYS sweet no matter how many questions I had! She would always confirm our appointments and always went above and beyond to make sure that we were taken care of. Read Less
