How do I choose a driving instructor?

Choosing a driving instructor

It is worth ensuring that you contact a driving school that can offer quality tuition. Some of the things you should ask –

What course guidelines do they have?

Do they have supporting education materials to give students?

Do they offer a system of reporting progress?

Do they teach safe ‘low-risk’ driving? Have they attended a ‘Beyond Test Routes’ workshop to improve their safe driving skills?

Can they provide guidance to the supervising driver in order to satisfy the requirements of the novice and the Logbook?

Is the training one on one (not three in a car)?

Is there a choice of vehicle?

How flexible are they (Will they change their pick up and drop off points to suit work or education requirements)?

All ADTA members are required to have public liability/professional indemnity cover

Quality tuition may cost a little more but it makes good sense to be safely prepared and that you are successful at your driving test on the first attempt.
