Almost everyone thinks that they are a good car driver or a skilled motorbike rider. Whilst everybody has to take the DSA test, thereafter the novice driver/rider is plunged onto Britain’s (and the rest of the world’s) overcrowded roads with no further legal requirement of further driver training.
When you join the Group, you will be allocated an observer to help you prepare for the test.
These are members of the public, like yourself, who originally took the advanced driving test. Having decided that they would like to help others, they then received extra training to be able to offer guidance, rather than instruction. Many hold full-time jobs, and a few will also hold instructor qualifications.
We can help you to pass the Advanced Driving Test by showing you what is expected of you on the test. Our observers will show you which aspects of your driving need to be honed in order to reach test standard. You can then be confident that when you take your test you will pass.
