ZERO FAULTS AT THE FIRST ATTEMPT FOR GOOOOOOOCH!

Huge congratulations to Lynden Gooch! The Huddersfield Town professional footballer and former Sunderland AFC fan favourite has just smashed his UK driving test at Hartlepool Driving Test Centre!

Many of you know Gooooch and have seen him driving around for years, wondering how that was possible. Born in the USA, Lynden had been legally renewing his international driving permit since passing his American test years ago. Like many professional athletes, finding the time to sit the official UK test was almost impossible—until today!

Being the professional he is, Lynden did the responsible thing. He sought out a few guidance lessons with ADI Peter at Only Automatic Driving School to get test-ready.

A clean sheet with ZERO FAULTS is incredibly rare, but Lynden’s standard of driving is exceptional. He just needed a few minor tweaks!

A note from Peter:"He has been an absolute joy to accompany on this short but ultimately rewarding adventure. We’ve certainly had a few laughs, and together, we even solved all of the issues with modern football (I wish!)."

The Ultimate Test Drama!

What makes this perfect pass even more legendary is the drama right at the start. As Lynden pulled out, he was greeted by a motorist driving the WRONG WAY down a dual carriageway! On his actual test! While anyone else would have been completely unnerved, Lynden kept his cool like a true pro.

Well done, Lynden! An incredible result. Safe driving, and we hope to see you soon in Milan (you might just have to pull a sicky for that trip! ).
