- MYTH #1—Online driver education courses are not as effective as classroom-based courses.A 2003 study conducted by the California DMV found that students enrolled in classroom courses gained no advantage over students enrolled in online courses.
- MYTH #2—Teens enrolled in online courses have no resources for help should they need it.DriversEdToGo offers assistance via an 800 number or online chat, seven days a week. There are also licensed driver education instructors on call in every state.
- MYTH #3—Attention is not required during an online course.All the courses offered by DriversEdToGo have been developed by driving safety experts and e-Learning specialists. Each has been approved by state agencies to ensure all topics are thoroughly covered. Interactive lessons, unit quizzes, and a final examination are all designed to keep the attention and elevate the student’s retention of the material.
- MYTH #4—Online courses are less expensive because they are of lower quality.DriversEdToGo can offer competitive pricing because of the volume of students that take their courses. Why overpay for the sams DMV approved course?
DriverEdToGo Reviews
Reviews for DriverEdToGo can be found on TrustPilot and TrustLink. No reviews could be found on Google Maps or Facebook. There are testimonials listed on their site, but they appear to be a bit more positive than those found on other sites.
As with any other good sold or service provided, you can find reviews for anything and DriverEdToGo is no exception.
- However, when you read reviews for anything, it’s important to remember these two things:
- When people have a good experience with a product are satisfied that they got what they paid for and unless they were absolutely blown away won’t write a review.
- Even if a product only had one shortcoming that got under the skin of a user, that person is likely to leave a review and will not hesitate to go scorched earth with their comments.

My son took their online drivers ed course. On completion, he was told he would get his certificate soon. After 4 weeks and multiple calls, emails and live chat attempts…. They do not answer the phone, they do not return calls and they don’t send certificates.

Course is bland and not very helpful. Called customer service with issues concerning account and not only were they nearly impossible to reach, they were rude once I got a hold of someone.

I would say it is pretty good. Some questions are a bit to easy though. Aside from that it was awesome.
