Great School

I want to say that I had a great time with 160 Driving Academy. Starting with the first week of online training in the Chicago Heights Location, it was smooth, no complains, the front desk lady was always helpful. After passing my Permit test and moving onto the South Holland Yard for training, every instructor in there knows what they are doing and help you understand what you are learning. A great shoutout to Greg, Shamika, Tim, Antonio, and the rest of the instructors at the South Holland Yard. The reason why I gave it a 4 stars is because of the amount of students that are in that specific yard. This is no fault to the South Holland Yard but more for the people above them. When I came in I asked what the instructor to student ratio was and I was told 1 instructor to 4 students. The first day at the yard it was 1 instructor to 11 students. We would stand and wait for 2 hours just to drive for 10 minutes in the straight back. As of today I did notice that there are new instructors and they will be opening a Lansing Yard to help ease the amount of students that go to the South Holland Yard for training. This is good for the instructors on the South Holland yard because it will mean smaller groups per each instructor. Perhaps 160 Corporate did see that South holland was overloaded of students which is good, but my experience was rated a 4 star due to what I went through in the 1 month that I was there .

This schools is hands down the best!!

i loved it!!!!!!

This schools is hands down the best!!

Walking in the door as young as i am 18, it was very intimidating. At 160 the instructors go above and beyond especially at the crest hill location. At the crest hill yard you are not just a number and that is what i liked best. The instructors build a relationship with their students. Work hard and it will all pay off!!

Great Experience!!

I had a great experience from the moment I walked through the door and getting enrolled by Galinda to getting into the drives seat, I learned a lot from David in the class and from Denise in the yard. Great course and Great staff!!

Work hard

The school and the instructors are really good, if you take it serious they will make sure you get your license.

Great Experience

Was a great experience Gary was a great instructor taught and told me many great things about Trucking. All of the instructors were also very professional and respectful.

Great experience!!!

I pass my CDL test last week. My experience was even greater than than I thought it would be. VATISHA in the office, DEREK and DARNELL in the yard was very helpful to every students from the beginning to the end, they was so amazing through the whole process. These guys are clearly the definition of patience. They taught me everything and I’m very grateful to graduate from 160 driving academy. They work with professionalism. They were willing to work with each person, as long as you were willing to put in the effort to help yourself. Highly recommend if you’re near Gary Indiana!!!

Awesome Training

My experience was even greater than I had thought it would be. Instructors were very knowledgeable and professional. They gave me the tools to be a successful driver and more importantly, how to operate a commercial vehicle safely. I would recommend anyone who is serious about getting a CDL to come check this school out!
