What our clients say about us
Using The Next Street in Greenwich for my son's driving lessons has been wonderful.
In our case, we did virtual classes since everything in-person was canceled for the pandemic -- they went above and beyond making the class interesting, helpful and were always available for answers to questions outside of class.
Greenwich CT
The Next Street is an excellent driving school, Robert did a great job teaching my new driver and making sure she was prepared to passed her driving test.
Norwich CT
They are really excellent; it was delightful to see the kind of passion they have for customer service. Thank you for holding that beacon high.
Manchester CT
Great place to learn about driving. Helpful videos that made driving a lot easier to learn. Helped me understand how to use all parking maneuvers, learned how to drive on the highway, how to stop in emergency situations and lots more. Essential for anyone who wants to get their drivers license in CT!
Stamford CT
WORLD CLASS DRIVER'S ED Licensing a new driver, with all the requirements, including driver's ed, can be a maelstrom of confusion. I had already traveled the gauntlet to get my son's permit (although The Next Street can facilitate this as well), and entered the arena to understand and enroll him in the required driver's ed. I came across The Next Street, a company that is absolutely best in class.
Westport CT
Excellent experience!
Stamford CT
