#1 ATL Defensive Driving

6740 Shannon Pkwy, Union City, GA 30 291
This is the absolute most unprofessional defensive driving school. I am wondering if the Dept of Driver services regulates who can run them. I called and set an appointment over a week and a half in advance. The man tells me that I was ok to attend the 7−10pm 2 day course and provided the location. He explained that it was at 383 Marietta street which was 3 – 4 min from my home. When I got there, they told me that the class would be in Union City. Almost 35 min from me! I had to take the course at that time as it was already planned out on my schedule. He told me it would take 15 min to get there and to follow him. I followed this man who was speeding down the highway and when I got there, he said we would have made it sooner if I didn’t drive so slow… Umm hello??? I drove the speed limit of 65 and was not trying to get a ticket going to defensive driving school! He was combative and told me that I had a choice to take the class or go home.
The actual instructor was nice but it was extremely painful to sit there and listen to him read the whole manual. He literally… Read the pages and it was far from being an interactive course. And his voice was not pleasant to listen too.
The video materials used had examples and statistics from 1998 and out of date procedures.
On the second day of training, he arrived late while we were all there on time. I was even able to make it on time with the President being in ATL and causing havoc to the traffic. Once again, I had to come down there from the location that I initially signed up for. He arrived, with no apologies, opened up the office and began to start reading the book again after a video. While we were in class, the guy that initially had me drive out there came into the office and started playing music. Regardless of how low it was, it was distracting.
After we finished over an hour early, they put on a movie to watch. The put on the un-​edited version of «Friday», with all of the curse words and racial terms being used. I found that to be ironic being that the entire office and classroom is covered in religious verses. I felt uncomfortable hearing the «N» word and curses while we waited to be allowed to leave.
Don’t come here…
