Driver Performance and Safety
Some drivers were perceived to have anger issues or be unclear about the rules of the road. One driver blocked an intersection before a stop light, while another driver engaged in aggressive driving behavior, honking at others unnecessarily. Moreover, a driver was reported for speeding in a parking lot, nearly hitting someone.
Consistency and Communication
Many reviewers experienced issues with inconsistent pick-up and drop-off times, leading to late arrivals. Drivers were often uncommunicative about changes to the schedule, leaving customers feeling frustrated and disappointed.
Driver Training and Quality
On the other hand, one reviewer had a positive experience with a driver named Robert, who made a significant difference in a child's transition to school. However, this positive review was an isolated incident, as most reviewers had negative experiences with the drivers.
Insurance and Accountability
One reviewer reported a vehicle accident involving one of the vans, which led to a dispute over liability and allegations of cover-ups. The reviewer cautioned others to be wary of the company's honesty and to always report accidents to the authorities.
