What Students in Flint Are Saying

“Just graduated 160 Academy yesterday and I'm feeling excited about my new career direction, Chelsea (Branch Mgr.) Is great and very helpful, the instructors are all awesome and all very helpful, you got questions just ask they all want everyone to succeed but can't do it for you, you gotta want it and be open to learning and put in the work!! Special shot out to instructors Erin, Keyon and Kyle I learned a lot and appreciate you guys so much!! And P.S Kyle, I'm still "King of the hill."”

James T.

“Great class, fun times, a lot of laughs didn’t always have trucks but the instructors made up for the poor corporate management not getting trucks available would 100% recommend coming to the flint location just for the instructors alone.”

Dylan M.

“My experience at 160 Driving Academy was great! The instructors are amazing and they explain everything very well. They will work with you and coach you through your maneuvers until you get it. They tell you to trust in the process and they are absolutely right on that. The instructors made my experience great.”

Kyle A.

“Hey quickly wanted to say thanks to 160 I passed my exam and my trucking exam in one shot. Now I have my CLASS A and ready to rock.”

Jennifer

“Location was as expected. Not a resort location, but met the needs for a classroom and yard for exercises. The instructors were very good. Tough but fair. YOU NEED TO STUDY… you will have to learn the information they give you. Theres no way around it. If you follow their program you will do well on your state test.”
