This has to be one of the least engaging and most repetitive educational programs I have ever, bar none, had the displeasure of using. The one benefit of this site is that it's extremely cheap. But again, you get what you pay for. One section is legitimately just listing off traffic laws. Copied and pasted straight from the law book, and you're expected to memorize them. The website itself is clunky. REALLY clunky. Not to mention that the slow agonizing appearance of the text makes it feel like you're watching paint dry ten times over.
I wish I had done the tiniest bit of research before using this site, its unbelievably bad, slow and boring. And it's gotten worse since the other reviews. You used to be able to get through the whole module (excruciatingly slow text included) and then wait, now every single section of the course and subsequent quiz has a timer, of which there are ~10-12 per the 12 modules. On top of that, the writing is quite bad, often copy pasted laws, and there were hardly any pictures (or probably not at all, can't quite remember). Do literally any other course if you can afford it.
The courses are not good, like every other reviewers said but be careful as after the course it will automatically subscribe you to Allstate Roadside thing for 5$ a month.So, I advice you to look up the subscription in your profile and cancel it other wise you will unknowingly pay for the useless subscription.
You can't open the website on a computer, and when you load it on a phone it is the worst website ever. The layout is the most basic layout and looks like the website took 10 minutes to make. As for the content of the course, it's just copy and pasted. It's extremely boring and terrible compared to other drivers ed sites. DO NOT BUY.
I admit I should have looked into different sites before buying this course but it was cheap so I went for it. The whole course is done reading power points made in 2012 with the annoying fading in animation put on every single damn line. Then when you get to the quiz, its just 5 questions that were often so obvious and stupid, I remember one asked something like "I should drive under the influence of drugs or alcohol. True or False?"...
Also, it's a timed course, meaning you're given 40 or something minutes to read and when you're done you still have a lot of time left over, and now you'll have to wait in order to move on. I swear I watched a whole movie waiting for the timer and when I finished, it was still going. My certificate did come in with my name, date of completion, and all the other necessary information, so at least there's that. If you're a teenager looking for a driver's ed program to take like me, I really recommend looking at other sites that are just as cheap and not as dull as this one.
Noty only is the website as old and cheap as posible, there are many instances of typos or incorect info thjat can throw off the learner widely. The lessons are tooo long and repeat the same info from the last ones all of the wrds have a slow and painful fade in anmation, but somnetims instead of fading it turns in a circle dont ask me why!?!?!?! The customer service can also suck my hairy $#*!. Mark was his name. Didn't know $#*! and just went to the website and told me info I already knew. You also dont have a progress bar on the lresson so you dont know how close ypou are to gfinishing the current lesson. The proig bar on the websuite just coiunbts the amount of lessons you do so if you do a really long lesson it gives you the same progress as a really short one. I decided to keep my typos in the review so you cvan get a taste of the CDEC.
This website is outdated, not only visually, but statistically. Their statistics are from 2009 and incorrect, as of today. This course is the reason I have still not gotten my permit. I got it 11 months ago and just finished it today, because it is so damn boring and just an awful, painful, stressful experience. When we purchased this course, we were under false pretenses that it had 4.7 out of 5 stars (the reviews they link must be fake).
Anyways, the text fades in slower than I'm reading it, and each page takes a decade to load. There are really crappy transitions for EVERY SINGLE GOD DAMNED LINE OF TEXT; fading in, spinning, etc. If you go to the next page or go back, you have to re-watch every transition. There is no option to skip the stupid transitions.
The lesson itself is tedious, with an entire like 5-hour unit of just straight-up traffic law codes straight from the book (e.g. §******* The Department of Transportation shall, after consultation with local agencies and public hearings…).
There are like 3 diagram, images, or videos throughout the whole course, and some of them don't even show up or play (they will just say "see image", and there is nothing there, or the image fades in after like 5 minutes). If you miss something in the video or image, you have to go to the next page and back again to rewatch the entire thing, transitions and all, and hope you don't miss it this time.
Each page has a time limit before you can move on, ranging from 20 minutes to 2.5 hours. I read at a normal pace and end up waiting an hour to go to the quiz. Not to mention if I do something else, there is this security question every 10 minutes that you have 10 SECONDS to answer and if you get it wrong 3 times you are permanently locked out of your account that you paid for.
I ended up just not reading it and setting timers for me to move my mouse around or whatever, to get through the course, and take the final test. The questions are ridiculously easy and nothing like the actual test question. I got a 90% on the final exam with only actually reading the first 10 units (of 15).
This site has long been abandoned and is a borderline scam. The reviews are fake, the costs are not fully advertised up-front, and the material is outdated.
If I had taken a different course, I'd have my license by now. This course is a waste of time, money, and frustration.
