Driving School UAMK

I did driving school a year and a half ago. Theory is good, but it would be better to focus on real situations, but there is not enough time. Health science - they say the basics, it would also require practical exercises. The simulator - terrible, because you get into a car that has pedals completely different. I drove with Mr. Sekanina and did fitness rides with Mr. Kunc. Mr. Sekanina is calm, teaches long-distance parking, and takes you to the southern junction. Mr. Kunc is great at teaching crisis situations and eliminating fear and uncertainty. They taught me how to drive a car. I needed another year for driving skills. And depending on what people sometimes show on the roads, I would recommend driving school or fitness rides for 10 years, maybe even 5.

Great driving school that places great emphasis on theory. I had Mr. Pacák as my instructor and I have nothing but praise for him. I don't understand some of the reviews, but from my point of view I can highly recommend it.

I cannot recommend this driving school. I graduated 2 years ago but have not yet written a review. Instructor Polanecký, to whom I was assigned after several rides on a simulator with another instructor, never really taught me anything, and the rides with him were full of extremely arrogant, rude, and insulting personal remarks from the first moment to the end. The only thing he was capable of doing was scolding me when I did something wrong - but an explanation of what to do usually did not come. More than once he contradicted himself in his insults, apparently just to have something to yell at me for. As an example, I will give a situation from my SECOND ride with him in traffic, when I, very nervous, asked him when approaching a roundabout if he could repeat to me where to go next. He didn't answer me, we went around a roundabout once and he started swearing at me "You're not listening to me, are you? Do you think you can do everything better, that I won't teach you anything? That I can go to hell, and you can drive here however you want, wherever you want?" (This is not a direct quote, I'm just stating what I remember). In response to this, I replied that perhaps nothing had happened and he could have answered me normally, after which he stopped me at the gas station and cursed at me for several minutes. I somehow finished the rides with him, since they had already been paid for, and because I was afraid to ask for a refund or a change of instructor. The highlight, however, was the theoretical tests, when they sent me to the testing center three hours early, which all of us involved found out on the spot. After waiting for three hours, I found out that Polanecký had crossed me off the list without my knowledge and I had waited in vain, because I couldn't write the tests for this reason. None of the instructors admitted guilt or apologized. I passed the test on the second attempt and have been driving happily and responsibly for two years now without constant swearing in my right ear, and I have learned everything I was supposed to learn in a driving school. So it was really just a waste of money and damage to my mental health. Avoid ÚAMK by all means.
