I took the knowledge and the skills test with Defensive Driving School and it was a great experience! Taking my knowledge test was very smooth and easy. My examiner for the skills test, Jimmy Green, was wonderful too! I signed up for the 30-minute warm-up before the skills test (would definitely recommend!) and Jimmy was great about giving me gentle feedback before the test started. I was able to get a feel for the car, and practice the maneuvers. Jimmy eased my nerves with friendly conversation and gave me helpful pointers... read more
I had a fantastic experience with Defensive Driving School for both the knowledge and skills tests. In particular, Mr. Jim Green provided extremely helpful driving guidance. His warm-up session effectively addressed many of my driving errors and weaknesses, significantly improving my confidence on the road. I highly recommend this school and especially Mr. Green to anyone preparing for their driving exams!
I had a great experience with Defensive Driving School in the U-District. I did both my knowledge and skill tests with them — they were punctual, professional, and offered a good price. I also did the warm-up session before the test with Jimmy, and I have to say — he was the best instructor I’ve had so far (and I hold both Brazilian and Irish driver’s licenses, so I had a bunch of instructors before). He’s incredibly calm, gave me valuable tips, and we had a pleasant conversation that helped ease my nerves. Thanks to the t... read more
Jimmy Green is an excellent examiner. He is professional, highly knowledgeable, and clearly experienced. He conducts the test with calm and clarity, making the process straightforward and fair. If you have the chance to warm up with him before the exam, I strongly recommend it — it helps you review all the required maneuvers and approach the test with focus.
Jim Green is an absolutely phenomenal person to take your driving test with. The warm-up was great for calming nerves, but Jim's calm and friendly attitude are infectious. He is clear about all directions, and wants you to succeed. It felt like my nerves melted away, and I was just in a car with an old friend. Highly recommend taking your driving test here, with Jim Green!
