I recently graduated from 160 Driving Academy and am extremely grateful for the exceptional support I received from Collin, John, and Leroy. Collin, as the yard manager, demonstrated outstanding organizational skills, meticulously tracking our driving hours and skill development. Despite facing moments of discouragement, Collin's unwavering encouragement and ability to push through insecurities were instrumental in my success. His constructive feedback, along with thorough explanations of safety measures, made him an outstanding instructor. I highly recommend him. John dedicated time refining my parallel parking skills on the yard, contributing significantly to my overall proficiency. Although my interactions with Leroy were limited, his calm, encouraging, and friendly demeanor during our trip left a positive impression. Thanks to their guidance, I successfully passed my CDL test on the first attempt, even in a manual truck, despite never having driven a 10-speed before. Grateful for the valuable experience with this dedicated team.
