Ways to Choose the Right Driving Training School

Ways to Choose the Right Driving Training School

Hayleigh, a teenager in Coalville, passed her theory test just one day after her seventeenth birthday. Talk about being driven!…


Just down the road from Hayleigh, another teenager, nineteen year old Brian was also taking driving lessons. Like Hayleigh, Brian also had his provisional driving licence from the first week he turned seventeen. But unlike Hayleigh, Brian was nowhere near his neighbour's driving skills, let alone think of booking a driving test.


He only just about managed to drivers schools his theory test on the third attempt. Feeling very despondent, Brian's driving course almost crashed into oblivion when he lost his part-time job and could not afford the expensive driving lessons he was taking from the very same instructor Hayleigh was learning from. So why is there a price discrepancy?


Driving schools, and their driving instructors tend to give cheaper price options to learner drivers who book driving lessons en-mass. Look at it like buying wholesale. As one can see, two teenagers, same opportunities, but Hayleigh came out trumps because she block booked driving lessons and tailored her lessons to mirror her lifestyle.


The other advantage Hayleigh had was her ability to practice driving on the private land. Hayleigh and her family lived on a large farm with room for farm machinery and a back garden most would die for. So she learn how to drive, for the most part, in her garden. She was not breaking any law. She need not even insure or tax the vehicle so long asshe did not drive on any public road. It sure gave her an unfair advantage.Understandably, she could drive better by the time she was seventeen. Her parents started her off by tutoring her and booking a theory test. An old banger was thrust in her face and she was skidding through the farm, learning to reverse, practicing clutch control, speeding up and changing gears to slow down and much more. The real carrot for Hayleigh, however, was the real and genuine promise of a brand new car if she were to pass her practical driving test first time.


Apart from that, Hayleigh longed for the freedom of stepping out of her front door and into her own car rather than walk half a mile to her front gate and another five hundred metres to the nearest bus stop. So despite her weekend job, Hayleigh scheduled her driving tuition on fixed days, and generally at the same time. This made it easy to remember what she was doing weekly.


Above all else, she had set days when she started from home but finished at home. Other times, she started from workplace and ended the lesson at a friend's house. It was a rollercoaster three-week period, but everything was pre-planned and executed to the minutest of details.


The best part for Hayleigh was that not one of her college work suffered. Hayleigh had the forethought to open up her diary and worked out a training schedule with her driving instructors.


As for Brian, who lived in an urban townhouse with limited parking on the near estate, this was all onerous work. His parents shared one car between them, which only the father tended to drive, mostly out of the necessity of driving a seven-mile return trip for work in rush hour traffic that took almost an eternity to complete. To make things even more complicated, Brian's parents had a big four-by-four which made it astronomically impossible to include the nineteen year old as a third driver.


So without the insurance, Brian had no practice vehicle. He had to rely solely on the driving instructor's car It was all too much. At this juncture, it need to be mentioned also that Brian worked in a public house where his bosses never really managed to give him set-hour shift patterns. And to make matters worse, the rota for his working week tended to be ready with five-day notice.


Academically, Brian was suffering too. He placed that as a matter of priority over his driving lessons needs so quite often cancelled driving lessons to do research and other school course work. When things came to a head, Brian stopped his driving tuition completely for a period of four months before returning to one lesson every other week. Eventually, Brian had stopped completely for almost one year before returning yet again to continue his driving course after he wa sorted with his university grades.
