Banderas Truck Driving School and Truck Rental for DMV

"She’s a rip of with out a doubt she does fraud on the hours she only give you 2 hours to drive and then after it’s 200 a hour she’s always late and has the trainees waiting today I had my test at the dmv and she came 1 hour late I failed because I didn’t get enough practice to drive you pay her the money and then she says if you fail you have to pay me again to take you don’t waste you money"

"Please be careful sometimes we want to save money and go to a school because it’s cheaper but you always end up paying more . She takes your money then tells you after if you fail you have to pay me again to take you if you want more driving time after 2 hours of on the street training you have to pay 200 . She wants everything fast and with only 2 hours of training … PLEASE PLEASE I DONT NOT RECOMMEND DONT LOSE YOUR MONEY"

"This is my honest opinion about this trucking school so hopefully people read this review and actually take it in consideration. My experience at this school wasn’t so great. Laura is very good at selling her business but it’s not a good school at all. It’s all false advertisement. If you like being professional and you’re a very punctual person, then you’ll definitely hate this school. You will not learn how to be a good truck driver at this school. You will pay more money than what she charges you, whatever you pay upfront is not the full price because she will change you more money. All she cares about is money , she could care less if you pass at the dmv. You only get 3 hrs of drive time with her and after that she charges each hour which is about $200 right now. Ask anyone who knows about trucking, and you won’t learn how to drive a truck in 3 hrs. That’s a joke. However, those who drive manual cars do get it quicker and learn fast because they’re used to it. But if you don’t, good luck. Also if you don’t pass on your first try at the dmv , she will charge you to take you to the dmv after that every time. You will definitely not get your moneys worth. She has no patience to teach and she cares more about her truck than her students. If you grind gears she will not let you drive her truck and kick you out of the school after your first dmv appointment. During my time at this school, she denied 4 students from coming back. That’s pretty messed up and you look stupid when you go other schools asking for an opportunity to rent the truck. Everyone learns at their own pace. You get yelled at and she will threaten you all the time when you make mistakes. She has her favorites also so not everyone get treated equally. Also she sometimes doesn’t notify you when she cancels class so you’ll be there like an idiot waiting for no reason. She also shows up super late and changes the class schedule to her own liking. Yes this school might be cheaper than others but you’ll pay more here than other schools, I promise you that. I now have my Class A and it cost me about $5,500 overall. I was actually taught better at another school and they gave me a lot of driving time without being charged. You’re not guaranteed a Class A and the purpose of a school is for them to help you get the license. I would not recommend this school to any of my friends or family."

"Highly recommend this school, it’s affordable & very professional, our teacher Laura is very caring of her students & doesn’t take any shortcuts. With Laura you get your class A guaranteed. I personally just got my license & I was confident thanks to her! Please don’t be scared to try this school out."

"I Came to the school not knowing english i learned how to perform my inspections in english with all the help of the instructor Laura. Shes one of the best teachers in the industury i came from a different school paying thousands and being set Up to fail. I came to the school and the instructor helped me hands on one on one. Within a month i das able to pass my cdl behind the Wheel exam all thanks to laura."
