Please check that your driving instructor is fully qualified.
Since the pandemic there has been a lot of new instructors appearing on our roads, many just displaying L Plates or blank top boxes.
A fully qualified instructor MUST display a green badge clearly in their front window whenever instructing, if a driver is displaying a pink badge, this means they have a temporary 6 month trainee licence as they are still training and have yet to take and pass their third and final test to become fully qualified.
Please double check who you are paying your hard earned money to and ensure that you are getting the professional training that your are paying for.
