Testimonials

“I booked three lessons with Drive Wise and each instructor I had made me feel comfortable and relaxed for my lesson. I tend to have anxiety over my driving so their kind approach really helped with my confidence. Overall a very positive experience!”

Kaya, Victoria

“Liza is a great instructor, she is very responsible, committed and dedicated. She instructed me clearly and understandably. I really appreciate her guidance and highly recommend learners to work with her as well as with DriveWise.”

Duc, Kelowna

“This driving school is very professional and accountable. I had a concern that their managers immediately addressed. They are committed to ensuring every instructor is safe. 5 star customer service. I will be using their service in the future. I would happily recommend this driving school to anyone.”

Jesse, Victoria

“Extremely helpful and positive experience, couldn’t have passed my test without the help of my instructor!”

Evan, Victoria

“I had a great experience with Drivewise. Their instructors were very knowledgeable and helpful and helped me prepare for the road test. I ended up passing the road test on my first try and I wouldn’t have been able to do it without the help of this company. I originally went with a different company and didn’t have the greatest experience and decided to change it up and settled on this one. It was well worth it and I would strongly recommend this to anyone who needs help driving or preparing for the road test.”

Desmond, Victoria

“I passed both my N and my full license test on my first try because of Drivewise. They teach you everything you need to know in order to both pass your road test and be a good driver. They will also do practice tests, which can give you a good idea on what to expect when taking your actual test. I would highly recommend them to anyone learning to drive, or even people that have their full license that are looking to improve their skills.”

Brendan, Langford

“I recently did my road test for my class 4 drivers license. My Drive Wise instructor put me at ease and taught me what I needed to know to successfully pass my pre-trip and road test.”

Margaret, Victoria

“After my stroke and losing partial vision I retrained with Drivewise and passed both tests and regained my driving privileges . I’m glad to see you use the safest cars to do your training with now. Thank you Drivewise.”

Kerry, Victoria

“Both my girls take lessons through Drivewise. They are fantastic! Excellent communication with the office. I particularly liked the co-driver information session for parents. An excellent idea. I highly recommend Drivewise for any new driver.”

Lynsey, Victoria
