After a strange 18 months, we are now able, to offer our Driver Assessments again, the Assessment covers 90 minutes, there's is a discussion of your hopes and expectations, we give you time to make yourself familiar with the vehicle, we then drive about 40/50 minute, then discuss the outcome, you will also have a written report outlining my recommendation.

Another interesting assessment today gentlemen, with right leg problems, so let him try Hand Controls, and Left Foot Accelerator,, he had the potential to go with either adaptation,, but he felt more comfortable with the LFA, it will take a few hour tuition, to overcome the clutch reflex, but then he will have the potential to continue driving safely have illness or disabilities doesn't mean an end to your driving future..

Haydn of Alpha Driving Assessments, can give impartial assessment including a written report, and advice on your continued driving, this is especially important for mature drivers or and driver after life changing illness or accident.

Assessment can help in the decision of continuing to drive, we all want to drive forever, but it's more important to only continue driving when a driver is physically and cognitively safe to do so.

Assessments last 90minutes with approximately 45/50 minutes of Driving, the rest of the time is for briefing and post drive debrief, reports are usually emailed within 48 hours longer if you want a physical roprt posted.

With the current interest in older drivers being Safe, maybe it's time to get your older parents driving checked, with an assessment, complete with written report and possible training recommendations, puts your mind at rest.

The Drive lasts about 40/50 minutes we allow 90 minutes for the assessment giving lots of time for meeting and putting the driver at ease, and debrief afterwards.

Please contact Haydn who is a Specialist in Older Drivers Assessments and training, with 27 years experience as an ADI. phone 07940 328203, and discuss your personal requirements with absolute confidentiality.
