Great driving school! William was an awesome teacher and my son was able to pass the driving test on his first try! Would recommend to anyone!!!

2nd time using. Older driver on a two year DMV cycle. I know what to do but we all develop lazy habits and even us million mile veterans of the road need refreshers. Ash did a good job on my senior instruction run and I passed the driving test a few days later. Good job.

My son took his first driving lesson last week with Britt. She was AMAZING! My son connected with her right away. She taught him so much all while camping his nerves and giving him confidence. This business was EXCELLENT from the very first time that I called. My son turned 16 on thanksgiving and to make my sons birthday extra special, they found an appointment the day before his birthday (it was set for 4 days after), just so he could start driving. They went the extra mile for someone they didn't even know. Thank you to all of the staff!!!! You made my sons 16th birthday that much more memorable!

Safeway Driving School is As Good As it Gets!! Thanks to Ash and his excellent team of drivers (Gabi and Corrine), my daughter passed her driving test on her first go round today! She was well prepared and ready for this next chapter in her life. We couldn't be more thankful to the Safeway Driving School in Simi Valley. I will return in two years with my youngest. See you soon and God Bless!

Great service and instruction. My son took the package of three lessons. He had zero driving experience before he went to Safeway. Diana was his instructor and she did a great job teaching him how to drive safely. When I drive with him, I am amazed at how well he drives. Thank you Diana for these lifelong lessons! He passed his road test easily.
The business itself is also extremely well-run, phones always answered, polite staff, organized, helpful. I see they have opened another driving school in Thousand Oaks which should help with the scheduling. Make sure to schedule in advance because they are Pretty busy.

I really like Safeway Driving School. I purchased the combination pack of both on-line driving course (you can take a one day class at their facility or do it on-line) and the three block class for driving instruction. I think I paid roughly $350 for my daughter a few years ago and paid something similar for my son, who is taking his second two-hour driving class in a few weeks. The people that work in the office are always friendly and able to accommodate me with scheduling the classes and the instructors are all friendly and professional. Hopefully my son will be taking his final class later in the summer, prior to getting his driver's license. I would highly recommend this school!

After finishing my written test, I did extensive research on driving schools. I picked Safeway based on their reviews and their prices were also the least when compared to other schools in Simi Valley. I opted for their 6 hour driving lessons. I had 3 different teachers for my 3 classes and all of them were fantastic! They are detail oriented, patient, clear and make sure you understand. They taught me to drive on the highway, DMV area to familiarize with the roads. Since I didn't have a car for the test I also picked their '1 hour practice before the test + using their car for the test' package (I don't remember the exact name :D) which was very helpful! They booked my DMV appointment since I was using their car and were very nice when I had to change my dates for the test and driving classes. I give them the credit for passing my test in the first try and would recommend them everyone.

We hit the jackpot when we chose Safeway Driving School. It started with the customer service from Liz and Ash. They were very responsive to voicemails left on their phone. They were extremely prompt and accommodating to our rigorous schedules. Both my son and daughter excelled on their driving tests after William for my son and Sharon for my daughter taught each of them rules of the road and confidence building techniques to get them through the drivers license test. They are in Simi Valley but they provide services for Newbury Park and Camarillo. We all give them a huge heartfelt Thank You!!!

My daughter had Gabby as an instructor all 3 lessons, took her behind the wheel test yesterday and aced it! Can't express enough how great of a instructor Gabby is and how great Safeway is as a whole!

My neice had Sharon as her teacher & she was really great. Very patient teacher. I would definitely recommend this driving school. Staff is professional & friendly.

Gabby and Cathy ate both great!!! My son has passed and my daughter will take her behind the wheel tomorrow. We're confident that she will ace it!!!

This driving school really helps you prepare for the driving test. I just passed my test and it was relatively easy thanks to all the instructors. I had two instructors and both of them were very kind and patient with me.

My daughter was a very anxious new driver. Her driving instructor was Sharon. Sharon was great with my daughter. She was calm, warm, and explained everything for her to easily understand. Her preparing my daughter exceeded my expectation. My daughter took her drive test yesterday and passed with only 3/15 wrong. I highly recommend safeway and Sharon!!

My son is currently getting driving lessons. The instructor is so patient. They are the best!
by Angela G. on June 24, 2016
They made it easy for me to sign up and get started with the driving lessons. I requested for a male instructor and got William. He was patient and encouraging. He made sure he was clear with the tips and gave me skills to use for the rest of my life not and not just to pass the DMV test. I'd recommend them and suggest you use the car you practice in for the DMV test.
I passed the test yesterday and I think it was because they helped me be stay cool, calm and confident.
by Amy W. on May 26, 2016
They are AWESOME! Ash, Kelly, Audrey, April, Sharon, all wonderful instructors. iam a 50 year old woman just learned to drive without these caring, compassionate instructors it would not be possible. Thank you again!!
by Rob B. on February 3, 2016
William was our daughter's driving instructor, and I will say he was extremely polite, punctual and very professional. We were very impressed with this school vs. other schools we had tried in the past. I would highly recommend this driving school!
Thanks for everything!
