While walking on Besserer street today I was almost hit by the driving instructor of this vehicle. I want to be clear that this was not a student making a mistake while learning to drive. This was the instructor of the vehicle who completely blew through a stop sign and continued driving as I was crossing the street. He did not slow down at all when he saw me and i had to hold my hand out for him to slow down. Had I not done this he would have driven straight into me. He then proceeded to speed up to a red light where he stopped inside the crosswalk.
This instructor should NOT be teaching other

I just watched a car from this school drive erratically in traffic on the highway. They were speeding up when a driver was trying to overtake them and also trying to pass that same from the inside (right) lane.
That and some other maneuvers had me wondering how someone with little or no respect for traffic laws and other people’s safety could be a driving instructor.
Also, you have to wonder why a driving instructor’s car would have two red bumper stickers reading “the blood of Jesus.”
I would think twice about this place just from my observations of the dangerous driving habits I witnessed

If you go to this school please for your own security and well being do not take Iliot as an instructor. The very first driving class he brought me to a big street even though i told him that i had no experience at all. He then yelled at me for making mistake until i cried. I stayed polite with him the whole time but asked to change instructor right after. Things got much better after that.

This “school” caused me quite some inconvenience. I had to cancel my G2 test because the instructor did not show up for a practice, 2 weeks before it. He wanted me to drive the day before my test and just go in for it... clearly wanted me to fail and come back.
Not to mention it was impossible to get any info out of them on confirmation.
Don’t go here, I don’t know a good place, but it surely isn’t here.
Attached screenshot should give you a good idea of what kind of people they are.

I enrolled in this driving school a few years back as an older adult who was terrified to drive. I got the theory and practical package for a price that is much higher that most schools in ottawa. After completing the course i not only lost all my confidence but i still did not know how to drive.
Initially upon calling i felt they were very pushy and sounded desperate to book me and get me to come in right away and pay in full! The theory part was ok. Jo (Jocelyn ) seemed like a good teacher who seemed to want to built the confidence of nervous first time drivers. Once the theory part was over

Oct 9 2016, one of their instructor's almost ran me off the road around 9pm on Innes Road. I saw that it was an instructor when we were stopped at the red light getting off the 417. He didn't signal either and cut me off in his Jocelyn marked, whited SUV with the DRIVSAF2 license plate. Would you trust the instruction to be acceptable, when the instructor can't drive?

I enrolled in this driving school after hearing my friends had to retake their road test multiple times before passing. I needed my license ASAP, and their flexible hours and friendly staff helped me finish quickly and pass on the first try!! I would absolutely recommend Jocelyn's Driving School to everyone.
