Cantor’s Driving School – Instilling Safe Driving Skills for Life Since 1976.
Cantor’s Driving School was founded in 1976 by Allan Cantor, a history teacher and disciplinarian at Overbrook High School in West Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. What began as part-time driving instruction grew into a respected family business built on quality education, personal attention, and a commitment to roadway safety. As the company expanded throughout Southeastern Pennsylvania, Allan’s youngest son, Frank Cantor, joined the family business, learning the importance of professionalism, integrity, and exceptional driver instruction directly from his father. Under Frank’s leadership, Cantor’s Driving School expanded into Florida, Nevada, Arizona, and Mississippi, becoming a five-state driving school organization. Today, Cantor’s Driving School is proudly owned and operated by Frank and his wife, Cheri. Unlike corporate-owned driving schools and franchises, Cantor’s remains an independently owned and operated family business, dedicated to personal accountability, consistent instructional standards, and exceptional customer service. Celebrating 50 years in business in 2026, Cantor’s Driving School has trained more than 150,000 students while remaining committed to the founding principles of Respect for the Road, Respect for Other Drivers, and Awareness of Outside Distractions. From our beginnings in Philadelphia to serving communities across five states, our mission remains unchanged: “Instill Safe Driving Skills for Life.”
