Excellent driving school - with great instructors and customer service. Bob Cunninhgam was our son's instructor. He did a fantastic job - our son learned key skills, gained knowledge and confidence, and passed his exam.

Shelley Stiffler prepared me very well for my driver’s license test the day before and on the day of allowed time for a quick run through of the course. There were also some mishaps that arose concerning my forms and permit that she sorted out and it did not interfere with me receiving my license. She also has a very good relationship with the examiners which was helpful.

On the recommendation of friends, we contacted Blue Bell for my 16-year old son. Bob Cunningham, his instructor, came out 3 times. Once early in his learning process. Once in the middle, and the last time, the night before his test. Bob also took him to the test. My son passed with NO errors. He wasn't very nervous and was very confident. We did a lot of driving with him but the lessons with Bob really upped his abilities. Bob Cunningham is calm and gave him great advice and tips. My daughter turns 16 later this year. We will definitely be calling Blue Bell and requesting Bob for her drivers ed!

The classes we signed up for for each of my sons were conducted by Ken Smiley. He was professional. Ken gave feedback on each lesson. He taught both how to parallel park and they said his lesson was clear and both picked it up on the first lesson. Both of my sons passed their driving tests on first try.

"Thank you for this very informative review. This will help other potential drivers valuable information on which to make a very important decision."

Second time that we have used this company, first three years ago for my now 19 year old son and now for my 16 year old son for his driving test. Bob Cunningham was an extremely patient, thorough and straight forward instructor. He provided actionable feedback after every lesson, came early to pick up my son for the road test, and he had my son fully prepared for the road test which he was able to pass on the first try. Communication with the company was prompt and easy, scheduling of lessons never a problem. Highly recommended company and instructor!

It was well worth it! Bob Cunningham was my son's instructor. He was able to relate well with my son, and keep him focused on what was important. Once my son was a competent driver, Bob helped him understand the testing process so he was very comfortable on the day of the test. He passed on his first try. Thank you, Bob!

Bill Grinstead was my son's instructor. He was always punctual and courteous. His patience and knowledge of the road are unbelievable. He taught him to drive with 3 -2 hour driving lessons and scheduled the test, drove him to the test, which he passed and back home again. I've used Bill with all three of my children and all passed and are excellent drivers, who learned not only to drive, but respect the road and the car they are driving. Blue bell is the best in affordability , it was worth every penny!
Response from Blue Bell Driving School
"Thank you [Member Name Removed] for the very kind words. Bill is incredibly detail oriented when it comes to his profession. He has been in driver training on some level, for many years, so it is very easy for him to disseminate what he knows."

Terrific! His instructor, Ken Smiley was patient, funny and calm. He took my son on all different roads, local and state, in different driving conditions. He took him in clear, rainy and snowy weather and in both busy and light traffic. Ken was easy to talk to and my so. Was very comfortable with him. He was always dressed professionally and was always punctual. My son passed his drivers test on the first try. We will now hire Blue Bell Driving School to get our son more comfortable on the turnpike and 4 lane highways. We will be requesting Ken Smiley. Great experience. PS. Francine in the office is very helpful, follows through and returns calls right away.
Response from Blue Bell Driving School
"Thank you [Member Name Removed] for the great review! I will make sure Ken sees all the wonderful things your family enjoyed about him. We are very lucky to have him with us. Also, Fran says hello!"

Darlene was a great instructor and was not only informative, but fun to be in the company of. I gained confidence under her instruction (because I was once scared to drive) and passed my drivers test because of all her help!
