Western Slope Driving Institute - Grand Junction - Grand Junction, Colorado

Don’t take your kids here if you want them to know how to drive. The instructors are sweet and nice but have no experience as professional drivers nor any training on how to be an instructor. The company offers no training for their instructors!!! You have as much knowledge about driving as these instructors do. This is not a professional driving company.

Very disappointed in this company. I thought they would be more flexible when working with teens and their schedules. I tried to get my daughter scheduled early on after she got her permit not realizing it would take her a lot longer to get her required 15hrs in first, before my son, and also knowing it is hard to book appts with them. We inevitably had to reschedule those as she did not have enough hours. Had to do that another time, but did not seem like it could be that inconvenient. When she finally had her hours, I called to schedule, and they had dropped her from the appts already on the books without telling me and refunded my money with no explanation. I called back several times and was told someone would call me back. Finally got someone to tell me that apparently they did not want to accept me as a client!! Very odd and weird, and frankly maddening. Only one other choice in town.

I had an amazing experience with western slope driving institute! My driving instructor was very thorough and made conversation, explained what you should do, what you shouldnt do, and gave you plenty of reaction time before any decisions. I highly recommend Adrian, thats who my instructor was. Very quick and very easy!

There is no “customer service” here. It seems they are only in this to make money, not safe drivers. I really wish I would have read more reviews before choosing them. If I knew what I know now I would have gone with a different company. Do NOT use Western Slope Driving Institute!

Absolute crooks! After kicking my son out of their program (for writing an honest review for other parents) I was promised a reimbursement for the instructor drive time that we didn’t receive. When later contacted for the reimbursement I find out it’s $0.01. This is completely laughable. Looks like their lack of costumer care has issues like mine happening all the time and so they have to stiff it to their costumer to make sure they got their own backs. Such crooks. Other companies in town charge $89 for the in person 30 hr class time. This company charges (essentially) $450!!! So incredibly disappointing that we have such a horrible business in such a great town.

Please, Please tell all your friends NOT to use this company. I know I am!

Went through WSDI with our oldest and had zero issues. With our second son it’s been a nightmare, he attended the classroom program. He chose to not rush in getting his hours because 1) he wasn’t in a hurry to drive, and 2) he just wasn’t comfortable behind the wheel and we were going to FORCE him. We finally got him enough hours to schedule his first drive session and it went AMAZING, the instructor was PHENOMENAL. We had his final 2 sessions scheduled and then Doreen contacted us to reschedule one of his drives due to terminating an employee for “the safety of the students.” THEN, my son hurts his leg in basketball and is told to not be on it due to the nature of the injury and I advise Doreen, as well as WSDI, of his injury and our need to cancel his next 2 drives until he’s cleared and Doreen went OFF on me and “the problem with my son’s program having been in it for 16 months,” and how we had cancelled one drive session already that she rescheduled for us, which in fact we had not being it was the one THEY requested to cancel/reschedule. I simply asked her for the same graciousness we offered when she needed to move things around now that we were dealing with an unexpected injury, completely out of our hands. Then I receive a text that we’ve incurred an $80 fee for “late cancellation.” My son’s schedule to drive account was then all of a sudden deactivated and Doreen proceeded to simply ignore further communication to resolve this professionally. VERY disappointed and wouldn’t recommend
