Reviews of ABLE 2 Driving School, Inc. (Driving School)

Tran Ngo

I just finished my first private lesson with Darryll, one of the instructors. He was exceptionally knowledgeable and patient, and he had our safety in mind at all times. I'd highly recommend him and ABLE 2 Driving School to anyone looking to learn how to drive. The other staff were also very friendly and responsive. After I paid for my private lessons, I received a call to schedule my lessons within two days.

Glenn is superb instructor and teaches what exactly needed to be a good driver and to pass the road test and I will surely suggest Able 2 to all my friends and colleagues.

Wendy Everard

This school was excellent! Prompt and professional communication in terms of scheduling lessons, and my daughter (Who had failed her first test) passed on her second try after 4 lessons with able2drive. Additionally, the improvement in her skills while we practiced together was so evident. Highly recommend!

I took my 6hr defensive driving class here to renew my insurance reduction. Jim makes the class very interactive. The day goes by quickly and with everyone participating it doesn't feel like you are just being told the same old information.

Parminder Kaur

Inconsiderate receptionist! Wow so rude!!

Sanchari Banerjee

Jason is a great instructor who gives you his full attention during lessons. He was patient and very accommodating of my inflexible schedule. Would definitely recommend to anyone looking to get a driver's license in Syracuse!

I'm sure people have had great experiences here, but I want to represent another perspective from my demographic... As someone who doesn't have much access to a car outside of lessons (and has some fears about driving), I didn't experience enough patience from my driving instructors. Other factors may have been at play. The five-hour class was fine.

Liamna Pestana

Very professional and practical. Good quality in lessons and respectful. Thank you so much.

This was probably the best investment ever. I was shy of my 30th birthday when I began taking lessons. I had recently relocated from NYC where i relied on public trans. I needed to get my license ASAP. I cannot emphasize this enough! This will be the best driving school you’ll find. The instructors are emphatic, honest and wonderful teachers. In a few lessons—certainly less than I originally expected—I was able to obtain my license. The part I am most thankful for—in addition to the actual lessons—it’s that your taught the importance of being a vigilant driver. Classes here are not just to pass your license; instead you learn how to be a practical, respectful and careful driver while on the road. I would encourage anyone to take lessons, and pay for the road test package. I was so nervous when i started taking lessons and within a couple of weeks I became a confident driver. Thank you Jason and Mike! The able 2 driving school team is fantastic and super accommodating. A true gem.

I had decided to get my license as a college graduation gift for myself. I had gotten the RT-3 package and was able to feel ready in no time. All of their instructors are heavily invested in your success and are knowledgeable about driving rules. They have given me a lot of helpful tips that no longer make me fearful behind the wheel.

Sierra Endreny

My driving instructor was a retired truck driver, the classes were educational and helpful.

russell nash

Took driver ed here about 10 years ago. I believe my instructors name was sean. He was professional, knowledgeable and very funny. He was a great teacher and 10 years later I'm still accident free.

Ryan Lee

Was great, their lessons had taught me all I needed to know for driving. Great instructors as well. Would highly reccomend for those who have little experience in driving.

Elizanda Salt Serrano

Excellent attention and good teachers ,you enjoy the class with them .

Prajwal Darvekar

Great place for a 5-hour pre-licensing course! The course is fun and interactive. The instructor John is a great teacher and has a good experience. Anyone looking for a 5-hour pre-licensing course should choose Able2drive school. I recently completed my course there!

Jose Delgado

Had Steve's 5 hour class in Watertown. Totally didn't need to invest himself as much as he did, but I'm glad he did. He put in the effort to make the state curriculum interesting and interactive. Thank's for going above and beyond for our class.

Naked Penguin

Yeah it might be a great place to get your 5 hours at, but don’t accidentally walk in to the office with a simple question and have the lady working there give you the nastiest look and not even want to help... thanks ????

Was driving for a little over a month and was not progressing much with my turns, maneuvers, and oversized driving capabilities. I’m in college and didn’t have much money or time for the full span of lessons&training but I decided to pay for 2 driving lessons. Best decision I ever made! Jason my instructor was really nice and a great instructor. Never yelled at me once (even when I accidentally pressed the gas instead of the brake while doing 3 point turn lol), he taught me a better steering method and step by step of how to do the required 3 point turn and parallel parking for the road test. I instantly became a better and more confident driver after those two lessons and passed my road test I had just an hour after my last lesson with Jason. The staff here were also very kind and welcoming, even called to remind me of my lessons. If you’re like me and want to learn how to drive quickly and with quality instructors I highly recommend Able 2 Driving school. Thanks for listening to my Ted Talk!

Raven Gardinier

I took the 5hr here and it was great! The instructor was very friendly and helpful! The class was really informative and I felt very prepared for my road test. Highly recommend!

Hailey Vanderhoff

Very good and helpful!

Cherice Francis

I just want to say how much l appreciate the service of your driving school. My instructor was very patient with me. If ever you need a driving school in Cortland give Able2Driving School a call.

Ivy En

They are amazing people I never had in issue with them. I took 4 driving lessons and the required 5 hour course and I'm planning on taking the 6hour defensive course and a couple more driving lessons before my exam!!

Carl Fleming

I was promptly processed and enjoyed the instructor. The entrance is to the right of M&T bank if you are walking or taking the bus. Overall the staff were courteous and helpful.

Marie Carmen

Well I have read the reviews here and I feel some people just want to be negative about it from my experienced. I had a great experience and instructor which her name is Kathy was very helpful and patiently help me with everything I needed to learn very informative and positive. I enjoyed the great experience and I will totally recommend it to anyone looking to learn how to drive correctly or to pass your driving test. Great people and very professional need help go to them no doubt.

I took the 5 hour class in Auburn and it was actually useful. At times it was even fun. I wasn't expecting that. My brother took driving lessons and he passed the road test first try. I have to say they did a good job.

J D

Great place to take the 5 hour pre-licensing course. David was very informative and made the experience fun. Highly recommended!

Michael Feng

Both our kids took lessons from Able 2 Driving School. A friend of ours recommended Able 2 and we were not disappointed. Cathy was the instructor most recently for most of the lessons. She was a great instructor and we could tell that there was a rapid improvement in both driving skill and driving confidence. Passing the road test on the first try is a testament to how well Cathy and Jason prepare their teenage students. I would highly recommend Able 2! Especially to parents of new, young drivers!

Jesse Boitel

I personally had little experience driving before I started taking lessons at Able 2 driving school. Once I started taking lessons, I was introduced to many techniques that helped me systematically think about how to drive and what to do on the road. Now, I am a licensed and confident driver!

Gabrielle Fanfan

Mike is a very good instructor. I tried two other schools before Able 2 Driving School, this is definitely the best.

Tesla Hiller

Craig was such a great teacher for the 5 hour course. I literally thought I would be sleeping half way through that class but he made it as entertaining as it could be. Thank you so much! Highly recommend

Agnes Nezzie

My instructor was very good. I had the same guy for the 5 hour class and learned a lot.

Absolutely the most positive driving experience I've ever had the pleasure of undertaking. As someone who struggles every day with clinical anxiety, the calm and controlled nature of the course was worth every penny. I came to Able 2 Driving School after having not driven for 3 years. I was somewhat in practice because I was forklift certified at the job I had at the time, but a forklift does not compare to a car. Due to my mental situation, stress is something that I don't have an easy time dealing with, especially in a short amount of time. My instructor kept a positive, calm demeanor even when I was struggling at my worst. I STRONGLY recommend going to Able 2 Driving School and going the extra mile for the road test package. A new driver will 100% leave with all the skills necessary to get out on the road alone. 5 stars, I'd give six if I could.

Deanna Dietz

Took 6hr Defensive DrIving class last Sunday. This is my 2nd time taking class with ABLE2 in past 3 years. The presenter John did an excellent job knew how to get our attention. Asked good questions. As an FYI My husband did online class couple of years back and said the class was longer. He wouldn’t take online class again so he went to ABLE2. Thanks!

Carmen Fortino

Able to drive school was one of the best decisions I have ever made. I was in a bad car accident over 10 years ago and wanted to shake off the anxiety and get more comfortable driving. I paid for the highest package that they had available and I would recommend it for anyone who really wants their license. The experience, the communication and the staff were nothing short of amazing! They helped me, taught me and made me a better driver. I passed my road test today all in thanks to Able to drive! Steve was a great teacher! Showed me the ropes and I couldn’t be more thankful! Thank you guys from the bottom of my heart!

Laurie Kline

Able 2 Drive is contracted with Cicero North Syracuse school district for drivers ed. Do NOT waste your money $550 for drivers Ed and the instructors sleep on the job don’t answer easy questions by the customer (the kids “learning” to drive). They are not worth the money they are unprofessional and a waste of money that you could take a 5 hour course and get the same 10% discount with your insurance company. My kid did not learn anything. I kept asking her didn’t they teach you that I. Drivers ed and the answer. Is no!!! I can’t say enough about how disappointed I am to have hyped drivers ed from my experience (20 plus years ago) to what she experienced. Laurie kline.

Jaclyn Turner

They literally called and canceled my lesson 15 minutes before it was supposed to start...

B. V.

Excellent!

Jason B

Took driving lessons with John and the classes helped me pass my road test on my first try. He was great and the office staff was fantastic as well. The 5-Hr Course online was great too. I highly recommend able 2!

Nate Parkhurst

Got me from failing 3 times to passing without points off. The instructor was very patient and kind. Excellent choice.

gregg Kuerst

I think one on one driving instruction is better than high school where you have 4 kids in the car.

Zhen Zeng

My instructor Mike is nice and experienced, so is Ron.

Cyndi Araujo

I spoke to Jason he assured me that the next class will be full and I will be able to take it. He was very helpful. I have read the reviews and everyone really enjoys this class.

Abbee Norris

I chose to take three driving lessons in order to learn the required skills for the road test. My instructor was Darryll and I would stronger recommend him if you want to learn the right techniques in order pass your road test on the first try. I would also recommend the 5 hour class from Able 2. I took it and I found it quit interesting because there was things that I didn’t know about. The driving school was an overall great experience and I was able to learn a lot!

Jeffrey Baird

My daughter took a driving package. Jason was her instructor. I can’t believe his patience and professionalism. She passed her test on the first try and I feel confident she was taught correctly. I also can’t say enough about the office staff. Very professional with timely responses to questions. Thank you Able 2!!

Cullen S

Scheduled a 5 hour pre license course a week early, showed up and was told the class was full. That someone who didn’t prescheduled just walked in. I work 2 jobs so scheduling is difficult as it is, but paying for a 500 driving package just to have your spot given away is ridiculous.
