Just finished up my driving hours and, am EXTREMELY satisfied with the time I spent at Cam's ? with Anna Sabatino. She is one of the most inspirational people whom I've met and is...

Worst

If I had to do it all over again I would have listed to my friends that used Cam's for their children. They told me Not To Use them. The only thing Cam's has going for them is ...

NOOO 1/14/2009

oh my god. worst desicion ever. first of all i had to schedule all my hours at once because they have such a tight sceduale you have to do it at least a month in advance. im a new driver and once i got into the car my instructor got VERY annoyed. he said the lesson was ""practice"" and NOT a teaching time. i couldnt believe he said that i thought this was a driving SCHOOL. he literally yelled at me for everything i did and i almost cried. not only that but they are rude and inconsiderate. i hate this place. Pros: none. Cons: too many more

Worst Driving School 11/17/2008

The girls in the offfice are nothing short of rude, evasive and fight with customers and each other. The parents class I attended had people banging on the door while the class was going on, and the police were called, which from what I understand happens almost every time. The rules on when you can book your hours change every day. If you ask to talk to the boss, he is unavailable and the girls will not commit to him calling you back. I spoke to a girl in the morning and she told me she never told me what she did in the afternoon. The price was the cheapest around, but not worth the aggravation. Pay more and go to a real driving school. I used a different one for my first child, and only changed because of the price. Pay more, its worth it. Cons: rude people, rules change every day more

Terrible Place 11/16/2008

This ""school"" if it can even be called that, is terrible. The most aggravating thing is that the owner and instructors are rude and only seem to care about your money. The five-star post below is obviously made by one of the Cam's Personnel more

EXTREMELY RUDE PEOPLE 11/12/2008

It was a big mistake signing up for driving school/lesson with an old woman as a driving instructor. She was extremely rude and the worst person I've ever met in life. more

Bad driving school.......Really waste of money 10/3/2008

Even though i saw bad reviews for this driving school. I thought I'll still give it a try since this is the only one in Waltham close to where i live. I took SIX ONE-HOUR LESSONS - $210.00 from them and even then I didnt learn to be a good driver. This is how they work - the student from the previous class picks you up and then he drives back to his place and you start driving and pick up the student for the class after yours. In the meantime, what you learn is very little coz the lessons are not dedicated for you. They don't teach the techniques for driving nor do they tell you how to improve or give feedback so that you can improve. All I did during my lessons is pick and drop :-( Another thing was they gave me 2 hrs out of six class initially and then 4 hrs after a month. By then i was almost as good as a new driver coz I was out of touch. Had to start again. The car was an old car, dirty and smelly. Only good thing is that the instructor was nice and friendly. more

REPORT THEM TO THE BTTR BUSNESS BUREAU 9/3/2008

They have ONE driver for hundreds of students. They do not answer their phones, call you back, they do not refund money and provide the service you pay for. They need to be reported so this stops. more

WORSTTTTTT SERVICESSS! RUDE PEOPLE, EXTREMELY LOUSY 8/1/2008

-NEVER MAKE THE MISTAKE OF SENDING YOUR SON OR DAUGHTER TO THIS SCHOOL. THEY ARE EXTREMELY DISORGANIZED AND GREEDY. THE THEORY IS A WASTE OF TIME AND MONEY. THEY SPEAK VERY RUDELY AND DISCONNECT YOU. THEY ACCEPT TOO MANY STUDENTS BECAUSE THEY WANT MORE MONEY! SUCH A FRAUD AND BAD BUSINESS! AFTER THREE MONTHS NOT ONE DRIVING LESSON AVAILABLE. Pros: nothing Cons: everything more

Horible 7/22/2008

Rude people who never answer phones, no parking, driving scheduled months out. Owner is uneducated and rude. I highly suggest going elsewhere if you ever want to get your license. more

Worst School 7/22/2008

You will NEVER finish school if you go here. NO DRIVING TIME EVER!! It takes months and months to complete the corse. DO NOT WASTE YOUR MONEY!! more

my daughter got her license 5/14/2008

As a parent of a 16 year old I was a little concerned about her getting her drivers license but once I got on the phone with one of the women in the office (her name is ""Precious"" I believe) i began to feel more comfortable about the idea. During the registration process the staff members were so helpful, and Precious took the time to explain how the courses were going to be taught, and she also introduced me to some of the driving instructor to futher reassure me of their capabilty to teach my child how to drive. After a few weeks of driving and classroom lessons my daughter successfully passed her driving test. The entire Cam's staff made it very easy for my daughter to complete the course. The staff is great and I would highly recommend Cam's driving school. Pros: Office Personnel are really nice & the driving instructors are very flexible Cons: not many instructor available on saturdays more

most retarded buisness ever. 5/5/2008

Cams is a scam, they take your money saying that you will finish their course, then they don't have enough hours to book the driving, so it will take months to get your license even though you started the program over 6 months before you could get you license, and they are major league bumholes. Avoid them, too many people have suffered, and they produce bad drivers, because their teachers can't drive for sh%t. Pros: if you like being around a-holes Cons: they don't allow kids to get their licenses when they can more

Downright Depressing 7/6/2007

I had a similar experience. If seeking driver's ed look elsewhere. While the classes feature dated videos (even more so than a typical driver's ed class), the system they use is obselete, and the front office is comatose. For the poor level of service they provide, this business has coasted for far too long. Pros: The building looks nice on the outside Cons: It's still in business more

Find another driver's ed school 6/15/2007

This school is run by a bunch of morons, and they exist only because they have a monopoly. Their service is aweful. They are complately unresponsive and don't answer their phone. Think ""Post Office"" or ""Government Worker"" and you will get the drift. I do not recommend it at all. Cons: Moronic classes, poor customer service, incompetance more
