160 experience

Amazing, from the classroom to the yard. Great instructors who really cared and wanted to see you succeed. Could not have asked for a better experience.

I loved 160!

I am very pleased with my experience at 160 crest hill location everyone was so helpful throughout my time in training from Nicole in the classroom to Tim, Lori, Curtis, Andre, and Jeremy in the yard! They really care about each student learning everything they need to in order to pass plus some! I'm so glad they pushed me everyday to study (because studying everyday does make a difference) & staying focused on the reason why I came. I really appreciate each one of you and all the conversations I had with you guys & Ladyy! I really learned a lot now I am ONE AND DONE!!!! 🙂

Greatest People Around

i had the greatest experience from the time i walked in and when i got my certificate. Everyone is very helpful and is really pushing you to get your CDL no better place to get your CDL than 160 Driving Academy.

GREAT School!

I couldn't be more pleased with 160 Driving Academy. Got My CDL in less than 2 months. Tim, Lori, Curtis, Jeremy, and Andre are great instructors. They go the extra mile to make sure that you not only pass your exam but are truly ready to start driving and making some serious cash. THANK YOU!

Above and beyond

Experience was a 10/10 there were certain points where I felt like this wasn't for me and it wouldn't work out but the instructors kept me leveled headed and really worked with me to get confidence and understand everything I needed to know

160 Class

160 class is the best driving academy ever!!! The classes are great and the instructors are the best and most helpful people ever. Tim is the best helping guide with driving and is such a great person to talk to about anything. Lori is is the Pre-trip master and seating guide expert. Curtis, Jeremy and Andre are very helpful with skills and driving. I highly recommend attending 160 driving academy, they are the best.

Good school cool people

I would recommend this school for anyone interested in better themselves career wise. Shout out to Tim Laurie Tony but screw Jim the grumpy instructor I swear this dude wakes up every day with a spiked stick up his crack

This schools is hands down the best!!

Walking in the door as young as i am 18, it was very intimidating. At 160 the instructors go above and beyond especially at the crest hill location. At the crest hill yard you are not just a number and that is what i liked best. The instructors build a relationship with their students. Work hard and it will all pay off!!

Thank You 160 Driving Academy

Lori,Tim,and Jim were very good at the instruction, Lori was a pleasure to work with, she has a vast knowledge of the industry, i give her five stars plus, i also give Tim the same, one and done
