Is Pass Plus an advanced driving course?2022-07-22T11:22:14+01:00

Do you teach ‘L’ drivers ?2022-07-22T11:23:45+01:00

Although I’m qualified to do so I no longer offer such training. Generally, my clients must have a minimum of 2 years driving experience.

I have already passed an advanced driving test can you help me improve further?2022-07-22T11:58:44+01:00

Yes, absolutely! Both civilian advanced driving tests are a very good starting point and many drivers are happy to rest there, having been trained by an Observer. However a higher level of advanced driver training is available from former Police Advanced Driving Instructors like myself – there are just a few of us around the country.  Find out more about the advanced driver training I offer here.

When did advanced driving start?2022-07-22T11:28:25+01:00

Advanced Driving started at the Metropolitan Police Motor Driving School Hendon in 1936. The IAM started a civilian test in 1956 followed by the League of Safe Drivers of which I was an Examiner and later to become RoSPA

Does doing an advanced driving course reduce my insurance?2022-07-28T11:58:30+01:00

It depends upon your insurance company, but do notify them you have completed an advanced driving course as it may lead to a reduction in your premiums. Upon completion of my course you will be presented with a CPD certificate which you can show to your insurers.
