My daughter, Eden, and I did use Virtual Drive as the parent taught driver’s ed program. She passed both the written exam the the driving exam on the first attempts so the material provided helped us reach the intended goal. The certificate needed for the written exam arrived as expected and we were pleased with the quick receipt. We also had access to all documents needed at the DMV and were not required to make any additional trips for incomplete items.

However, we were both appalled at the poor writing, grammatical errors, and partial sentences continually used in the presentations and testing online. We often would do a segment and then laugh for hours about the ridiculous errors present. My husband suggested that I offer to submit corrections in return for a refund on the program. I told him that there were so many that it would not be worth my time (vs. the cost of the program) to go through each page – it wasn’t just one error here and there, it was rampant.

We were also shocked that you would use a photo of a Muslim woman in a burqa to illustrate the need to drive with your eyes.

I can’t speak to how Virtual Drive compares to other programs as we only have one child and VD was the program we purchased and completed. I am happy to read that you are embarking on an attempt to update the website. The content of the program is acceptable; the presentation and writing needs significant improvement. We wish you continued success.
