Drive On !

Some friendly words of advice...   Please don t choose a driving instructor on lesson price alone. Have trial lessons until you find an instructor you like.   Your instructor may suggest you book your test after just a few lessons. This is a way of dissuading you from changing to someone else. Once you have your test booked, you are unlikely to want to change. Don t agree to book a test after a few lessons. One of the pet hates of driving examiners is a pupil who goes to test before reaching the required standard.   Make sure your instructor is fully qualified and is displaying a green badge on the tuition vehicle, not a pink badge.  If the badge is pink, your instructor is a trainee, just like you. I know that we all have to learn, but make sure you are getting what you think you are paying for.   Please remember that companies who advertise daily on local radio are paying a lot of money for this, which has to be covered by your lesson fees.  Like me, most established local instructors won t normally need to advertise.  Business is generated by personal recommendations, the tuition vehicle itself and internet searches.

You should think about changing your instructor if...
Your instructor is habitually late or at times, doesn t turn up at all. You know you are making mistakes, but your instructor doesn t say anything or doesn t give you sufficient advice on how to correct the error. You don t feel you are making sufficient progress. Your instructor makes phone calls, not for your benefit, during your lesson. Your instructor calls at home to make a sandwich, does the shopping, runs errands, stops for breakfast or a cigarette, listens to a football match, queues up at the post office or whatever. This list could be almost endless, but I think you can work out what is appropriate and what isn t.  Obviously if you want to take a break at any time in your lesson that s fine. Occasionally I will need fuel or a loo stop, so don t mark us down for this.  The last subject is a tricky one;

inappropriate behaviour...Your instructor should never say or do anything to upset or intimidate you in any way or make you feel unsafe, uneasy or embarrassed. Don t put yourself through this. Drive or ask to be driven back to your home and tell someone you trust why you are upset and change your instructor.

Drive On !

The practical driving test is designed to see if you: can drive safely in different road and traffic conditions know the Highway Code and can show this through your driving ability. As long as you show the standard required, you ll pass your driving test. 

You must bring:
 Your theory test pass certificate (or confirmation) if you re not exempt from taking the theory test both parts of your driving licence - the photo-card and the paper counterpart 

What happens during the test
 Before you start the driving ability part of your test, you ll have an eyesight check and be asked 2 vehicle safety questions. 

Eyesight check You ll have to read a number plate from a distance of: 20 metres for vehicles with a new-style number plate 20.5 metres for vehicles with an old-style number plate You can write down what you see if you can t speak English or have difficulty reading. 

Vehicle safety questions: show me, tell me
 You ll be asked 2 vehicle safety questions. These are also known as the show me, tell me questions. The examiner will ask you one show me question, where you ll have to show them how you d carry out a vehicle safety check. You ll also be asked one tell me question, where you ll have to explain to the examiner how you d carry out the check. Find all the questions below 

The driving ability part
 The driving part of your test will last about 40 minutes. Throughout the test your examiner will be looking for an overall safe standard of driving. 

Your general driving ability
 During your test the examiner will give you directions that you should follow. You ll drive in various road and traffic conditions. You should drive in the way your instructor has trained you. 
It should include:
 normal stops an angle start (pulling out from behind a parked vehicle) a hill start You might also be asked to carry out an emergency stop. 

Reversing your vehicle safely
 You ll have to show how well you can reverse your vehicle. The examiner will ask you to do one of the following exercises: reversing around a corner turning in the road reverse parking - either into a parking bay, or parallel parking at the side of the road 

Independent driving section Your driving test will include around 10 minutes of independent driving. It s designed to assess your ability to drive safely while making decisions on your own. 

If you make mistakes
 Carry on if you make a mistake, because if it s not a serious mistake it might not affect your result. Your examiner will stop your test if they think your driving is a danger to other road users. 

Taking someone with you
 Your examiner will ask if you want your instructor, or another person, to: sit in the back of your car during your driving test be with you after the test for the result and feedback This person will usually be your driving instructor, but it could also be a relative or friend. They must be over 16 and can t take any part in the test. 

The examiner s supervisor
 The examiner s supervisor may come along as well. They will be watching the examiner s performance, not yours. The supervisor won t have any say in how you re tested or in your result.

Pass Plus 

It involves only six hours training with no test at the end. There are six modules; town driving, all-weather driving, out of town driving and rural roads, night driving, dual carriageways and motorways. Once all six modules have been completed, your training form is sent to the Pass Plus Unit at the D.S.A. and you will receive a Certificate of Completion.  

Night Driving 

Many people have never driven at night! If all you've done is a school run or trips to the local supermarket, you probably won't be able to drive safely at night, in poor visibility on major roads or motorways. I can teach you to do this type of driving safely. 

Motorway Tuition 

If you've driven for years but haven't needed to, or have avoided using motorways, the prospect of motorway driving can be very worrying. Are you concerned about how to join or leave a motorway? A few hours of professional motorway tuition will give you the high degree of competence you need to drive safely. 

Refresher Course 

This is ideal if you passed your test several years ago and haven't driven much since. You may change your job and find that your new employer needs you to be mobile. This course will quickly bring back your confidence. If any part of driving worries you, I can train you to be competent and confident in that particular area. Please don't be one of the many drivers who hope they'll never have to reverse into a space between two vehicles again!
