๐ DRIVING TEST BOOKED? PLEASE READ ๐
I've had a lot of last minute enquiries recently from people looking to use my car for driving tests that are only a few days or weeks away.
Please note: If your driving test is less than 3 weeks away, I am highly unlikely to be able to accommodate you.
Why do I have this policy?
๐
Advance Booking โ My diary is usually booked several weeks in advance with my regular pupils.
๐ก๏ธ Safety, Risk & Responsibility โ My car is my livelihood. As a driving instructor, I have a responsibility to ensure anyone using it is driving safely and to a suitable standard. Allowing someone I haven't properly assessed to take my vehicle on test could put other road users at risk, could result in damage to my vehicle, and could leave me unable to work if my car is off the road.
๐ฏ Test Readiness โ I don't simply hire out my car for driving tests. I need time to assess your driving, make sure you're genuinely at test standard, and help correct any faults or bad habits before test day.
The golden rule:
If I haven't personally assessed your driving to the required standard, or your test is less than 3 weeks away, I won't be able to offer my car for your driving test.
If you'd like to use my car for your test, please get in touch as soon as you've booked your test so we can plan ahead.
Thank you for your understanding and for respecting the standards I set to keep everyone safe. ๐๐
