About Us

We take pride in the safety of our students as well as their comfort. We provide a friendly and inclusive environment for both our in class sessions and in car lessons. It’s a stress free environment, with five relaxed, outgoing teachers that have over 60+ years of combined knowledge in the driving industry! All Weather Driving School has an extremely high success rate and takes pride in the fact that our students not only have the skills to pass their road test but to be a safe driver for life.
