LEARNERS

Whether you are seventeen, or a bit older, the thought of learning to drive can invoke wildly differing reactions, from excitement and enthusiasm to one of dread and reluctance.

Whatever your reason for wanting to learn to drive you need a good instructor who cannot only teach you a mix of the basics of car control, hazard perception and good road craft but who can instil confidence in you as part of equipping you with a life skill.

Remember the 'Drive to Arrive' motto -
"Safe driving - an investment for life" means just what it says. An investment in your time and in first class training will ensure that you, your passengers and the people you share the roads with will be safe for life.

The Driving Standards Agency (DSA) set the criteria for driving tests to which all Authorised Driving Instructors are obliged to instruct. Some instructors concentrate solely on getting a learner driver through the driving test. If you choose to have driving lessons with "Drive to Arrive" you will not just be taught to pass a test but will be equipped to drive safely and with confidence. Like any other essential skill in life, driving must have a solid foundation on which to build. Good instruction will give confidence and with experience the new driver will be able to deal with the stresses and strains when driving on today's busy roads.

Whilst instruction will be based on the DSA objectives, to ensure that all skill areas are covered, every person is unique and learns at their own pace. It is essential therefore that lessons are structured to the needs of the individual, which is exactly what will happen at "Drive to Arrive". Each client will have their tuition tailored to address their strengths and weaknesses so that they progress without feeling frustrated or intimidated.

If you choose 'Drive to Arrive' you are guaranteed instructors with a wealth of experience in a wide variety of driving and road safety issues (see ' About Us').

Unlike larger driving schools, which tend to be impersonal, we like to visit prospective clients to introduce ourselves and to answer any questions and concerns they may have. This visit is complimentary and you are under no obligation. Clients therefore have the opportunity to decide if they like what they see and hear before entering into any formal contract.

You will be taught in either a Toyota Yaris or Seat Ibiza 1.4 petrol engine car, which are fully equipped with dual controls.

Lessons can be booked to fit in with your lifestyle and can be arranged from home, college or work with a different pick up and drop off point if required. Instruction is on a 'one to one' basis i.e. you will not have to share the car with other clients as at some other driving schools.

The "Drive to Arrive" structure of fees include a motorway lesson, or a discount off the Pass Plus scheme, for clients who have successfully passed their test with us.
