Another pass with ZERO faults. This time from the brilliant Griff who took his test in his own car this morning at Newtown test centre.

Having done a few hours with Griff I knew he had a great chance of doing really well but the perfect drive with not a single mistake was truly outstanding.

Well done Griff. Drive safe and I’ll look out for you on the road.

And the passes keep on coming.

This time it’s Maddy who passed her test this morning in Newtown and drove brilliantly with the examiner describing it as ‘a very nice drive indeed’.

Really well done Maddy. You should be hugely proud of that performance and really deserve this result.

Drive safe and I’ll look out for you in your little blue car 👍👍👍

Last test before going on holiday and it’s the 3rd pass of the week 😁

This time it’s Tom who passed his test with only ONE minor fault so very nearly the perfect drive.

Really great drive Tom and a thoroughly deserved solid pass.

I’ll look out for you on the road.

Safe driving mate 👍👍👍

2 tests today and 2 passes.

The 2nd pass was from the brilliant Stacey who drove really well, on a long and complex route, and passed with only a handful of minor faults.

Well driven Stacey. You’ve got a great summer to look forward to now and should be really proud of what you’ve achieved.

Was great fun teaching you. Drive safe and I’ll look out for you on the road 👍👍👍👍

Passing a driving test in a car that you have learnt in and are used to driving is hard enough .....

But Ella just passed in my car having only driven it for 45 minutes before her test.

Her instructor (another LDC instructor) was rushed to hospital yesterday and asked me if I could step in and help.

So of course I did.

I met Ella for the first time 45 minutes before her test and she spent that time getting used to the car and familiarising herself with the controls.

The she went and performed brilliantly and passed her test with just a handful of minors ..... which is really impressive given the circumstances.

Really well done Ella. I'm glad to have helped.

😊😊😊😊

What a drive from Amir 👍👍👍

Ocassionally I’m asked to sit in the back of the car which is what happened today.

And I’m glad I did because I watched Amir drive brilliantly to pass his test in Newtown with just a tiny number of faults.

I knew you would do it Amir. We just had to convince you that you could.

Safe driving my friend and I hope to see you and mum / dad soon.

Well done 👍👍👍
