passing your driving test

Well done to SU who passed last week and good look with the rest of your driving.
So people patience and persistance does pay off.

passing your test

Hi folks so on the 3rd of this month A PASS well done Sue. It takes hard work alot of effort and perseverance all of which gets you a pass in the end. Some people can go a couple of weeks or more and still drive to test standard, some people need to drive more often, at the end of the day its up to the pupil.
So heads up people !! concentrate a little harder and you'll all get there.

Driving with a positive attitude

Driving safely is very important in this day and age, with increasing amounts of traffic coming on to Britians roads.A good attitude and good knowledge of the rules of the road are ESSENTIAL.
Driving tests involve the same attitudes and skills. So the last thing you want to do is go on your test wondering weather or not you are good enough ???? Whilst on your test you will have to deal with situations in different places as they arise. This must be done safely and confidently, to show you are aware of whats going on around you. I had a pupil today on test who thought she had failed very early on in the test, ( she had not failed at this point ) so a few minutes later she failed in a different place !! So what i'm saying is if something goes wrong , sort it out as safely as you can and keep your driving to a high standard. When you arrive back at the test centre THEN you can find out your result.
If you have got as far as the TEST CENTRE with me then you will pass. Its all about on the day, so a good positve attitude is essential.

Three lucky people on test this month , 2 at eccleshill and 1 at heaton. Good luck to everyone you all deserve to pass.

schools out ! DRIVE CAREFULLY

Ok how can you tell schools are off ? I wreckon theres at least 75% less traffic in town centres and high street roads,so many people already use cars to get kids to school when thet could walk.
So less traffic but more kids to look out for all day!! So stay alert in areas where there maybe lots of kids. As a driving instructor myself, less traffic is always easier to deal with but i still have a high rate of awareness at all times.

Enjoy the quiet roads while it lasts.

driving round roundabouts

So how come i have been cut up twice in one day on the same roundabout ???
LOOK for signs on your approach so you know which lane to be in. Always give way to the right or anything already on the roundabout and please signal in the correct place at the corect time. Improper use of signals makes everyones life difficult. Don't drive round them at speed go at a safe speed so you are aware of who is where on the roundabout, take your time, when you have mirror signalled in the correct place and left the roundabout, then build your speed up safely.
If in doubt don't stick your nose out, wait for a safe gap. its not that hard........is it !!!

motorway driving and the hazards

hi folks < had a nice day out in Alton Towers yesterday and surprisingly very few problems on the roads.
A beautiful sunny day and left at eight. I came across the usual non mirror lookers that just move in an out without looking. Then theres the drivers who forget they do actually have small flashing orange lights to tell other road users when they are about to change lane or direction.So off at J28 and the usual tractor driver, just a little patience required here to pass when theres a safe opportunity.
Two and a quarter hours and all the thrill of the rides and the expensive food "LOL".
Some great rides which , i have to say " left me a little worse for wear".So fed and watered for the return trip. Back down the B roads and safely on to the M1. Hello here we go MR.I CAN'T AFFORD A HANDS FREE KIT appeared at 80 mph , scary and out of my way quickly.Then more of what i experienced on the way down,with a little tiredness thrown in. The beast thing is to stop in a safe place , eg the nearest services. If your still a distance , wind your window down, turn some good music on, stay alert. It pnly takes a second to never see the next servie station. Driving at high speeds takes constant concentration.
Two hours later, home safe, showered and a cold beer. A great time had by all !
