A Saturday pass in Durham for Jamie
The roadworks near to the driving test centre in Durham meant uncertainty as to where the test route would be. as it turned out it was over Jamie’s favourite area and he did a splendid pass with just a couple of faults. A great bloke to teach. Well Done!
Harriet passed in the blazing sunshine with a single driving fault!
Another hot day and another hot pass, Harriet scored a single driving fault on a test that the examiner said was outstanding. A great student to teach (even though the first few lessons could have earned Harriet and Oscar nomination!) A little self doubt overcame and a great first time pass!
And another! This time it’s Jessica
Jessica was convinced she wouldn’t pass her automatic driving test. We were convinced she would. A couple of mistakes and keeping your nerve and Hey Presto! A pass. Well done Jessica!
Another Pass! This time it’s James
James passed his Automatic Driving Test today with 2 minors (could have easily been zero) in glorious weather out on the streets of Durham today. A wonderful drive from a great bloke. An eternal overthinker but he did it! Well done!
Nikki passed! Whoo Hoo!
Nikki passed her driving test in style with only a couple of faults and at the very first attempt. A lovely lady with a tremendous sense of humour and an adorable daughter, Poppi, who can’t wait for her Mum to now take her out and about. So proud of your pass!

Finding difficulty with steering when you start your driving lessons?
Struggling with Steering when you first begin to learn to drive on your lessons?
You’re not alone - learning new methods of coordination and concentration often means that your brain and your hands are sometimes at loggerheads with each other. You can feel frustrated, you cross your hands and go to wide, you grip too tight and drift out of the correct driving position! Driving Instructors deal with these scenarios on a regular basis.

Driving on an International Driving Licence
We get requests all of the time for Drivers currently holding a full non UK licence outside of the UK but only possessing an International Licence for driving on UK roads. Remember that this licence currently only allows you to drive for a maximum of 12 months in the UK then YOU MUST take and Pass the UK driving tests. In order to apply for the UK driving test (Theory then Practical) you must first apply for a Provisional Licence in order for you to be able to book the theory test and once you receive your UK Provisional Licence, your International Licence (and most probably your insurance) become invalid. You cannot legally drive without being suitably accompanied and insured - the penalty is quite severe for not following the law. Find yourself a decent instructor, if it isn’t us there are many fine Driving Schools in the area. Remember - Keep it safe, Keep it legal!
