Learning to drive in Pitlochry or considering doing so?

When learning to drive we, 2Pass.eu Driving School, believe that your driving school should be able to provide you with multiple options. Our aim is to offer car tuition in both manual and automatic cars and also motorcycle tuition. Our 2Pass.eu Driving School Franchise will start operations in 2009 and we should have cover within a 20 miles distance of Pitlochry

Finding a driving instructor is sometimes a bit of a lottery. How can you tell from a Yellow Pages advert what the driving instructor looks like. What are his or her interests? What experience does he or she bring to the job? In order to make an informed decision about the choice of driving instructor you need more information than you are likely to get from an advert.

2Pass.eu Driving School seeks to provide you with the information you need to know. When we launch our interactive website early in 2009 it will contain many features aimed at helping you to get on the road to driving test success.

An online booking service will enable you to book a driving lesson at a time and date that is convenient to you, and you will be able to do this whenever you like. If it is 10pm and you suddenly decide that you want to book a driving lesson for the following week, no problem. Our service will make this possible.

Also you can book as many lessons as you wish, seeking to learn quickly, and paying by credit card will enable you to spread the repayment period.

When learning to drive or ride a motorcycle it is important that you practise safe driving skills, are aware of your responsibilities and knowledgeable of the theory. For this reason, throughout this publication are included random sections of text referring to the Driving syllabus, Show Me Tell Me Questions, Theory Questions and Driving Skills.

Syllabus element:- Mirrors - Vision & Use - You should use your mirrors often, including exterior mirrors as necessary. Always be aware of your blind spots and act sensible and safely on what you see. Always check carefully before:-

*Signalling
*Changing direction
*Changing speed

Use the MSM (mirror, signal, manoeuvre) routine. Do not signal or act without first using the mirrors.

RANDOM THEORY QUESTION

As a driver what does the term 'BLIND SPOT' mean? Choose one of the following.

a) An area covered by your right-hand mirror.
b) An area not covered by your headlamps.
c) An area covered by your left-hand mirror.
d) An area not seen in your mirrors.

Answer - d.

There are so many situations that could become hazards. For example a dog off the leash is a potential hazard. No matter how well behaved a dog may look, it's actions are unpredictable. When approaching it is wise to reduce your speed and mentally prepare for what you may need to do if the dog jinks into your path.

Driving Instruction and 2Pass.eu Driving School is about Value! Our aim is to provide affordable Driving Instruction from some of the most experienced driving instructors in the United Kingdom.

There is a lot to learn when you start training to be a driver so it is natural that you should want to learn from the best. Our 2Pass.eu Driving School Driving Instructors are the best. Well that is our opinion! You see, all our driving instructors have trained hard in order to be Approved Driving Instructors registered by the Driving Standards Agency.

If you look at the windscreen of a Driving Instructor's car, close to the tax disc you will see either a Red Triangular Licence or a Green Octagonal Licence. The Red Triangle denotes a trainee. Most trainees never qualify!

All our driving instructors are Green Badge holders, with several years of experience in driving and imparting their knowledge. It is important from a financial viewpoint that you should learn from one who has considerable experience. Driving lessons are quite expensive but an experienced instructor is likely to teach you in fewer lessons than one who is less experienced. It's all about Value!

According to http://www.learnerdriver.co.uk/ only 18 trainees out of every 100, are successful in qualifying in becoming an Approved Driving Instructor, registered with the Driving Standards Agency. Learning with a trainee may end up costing you more! The reasons are many but one important one is that your trainee instructor may lose his trainee licence before you reach driving test standard leaving you looking for a replacement. This will not happen when you learn with a fully qualified 2Pass.eu Driving Instructor.

Driving Skill:- Can you reverse park either on the road or in a car park whilst safely observing all around you? There are two parking manoeuvres. You need to be able to reverse park into a parking bay. The other parking exercise is known as a 'parallel park' where you reverse park on the road.

There is so much to learn when learning to drive. Your 2Pass.eu Driving School driving instructor will teach you all about Crossroads.

Who has priority at an unmarked crossroads.
What routine you should use for approaching and/or turning at crossroads.
Why it is important to check crossroads even if you have priority.
What you must be careful of when turning right at a crossroads.
How you should pass an approaching vehicle at crossroads if you are both turning right.
What the purpose is of a yellow box junction.
Where you should position to go ahead at a crossroads.
When you should position towards the centre of the road to go ahead at crossroads.

Your 2Pass.eu Driving School driving instructor will help you with all of this plus a lot more.

2Pass.eu Driving School currently operate in Dundee, Scotland and offer a range of services that include Theory and Hazard Perception training plus driving instruction. When we go live with our 2Pass.eu Driving School Franchise from early 2009 we hope to offer these services and more to a much wider audience.

A good driver needs to possess many things which can be broken down into a few categories. Knowledge of Theory, an understanding of the Driving Skills you need to acquire, and appreciation of the Driving Syllabus and ability to carry out all that these require. Included in this article are random extracts from the Theory Test, Show Me Tell Me questions, Driving Syllabus and Driving Skills.

Syllabus element:- Turn In The Road - Keep a look out for traffic and pedestrians whenever you are turning your vehicle and be prepared to give way if necessary. Control your vehicle smoothly. Do not let the vehicle mount the pavement. Try not to touch the kerb as this could endanger other road users and pedestrians and possibly damage your tyres.

RANDOM THEORY QUESTION

a) It allows you to corner more quickly.
b) It helps the large vehicle to stop more easily.
c) It allows the driver to see you in the mirrors.
d) It helps you to keep out of the wind.

Answer - c.

What is a Hazard? A Hazard is anything that would cause you as a driver to change speed or direction, as you gain experience through your driving lessons you will be aware of situations that may develop in to a hazard

It is not easy choosing a Driving Instructor. If you know of someone who is learning to drive, you may get recommended to one and that is good as you will have some idea about the instructor.

In the main though, in my experience, most Driving Instructors are selected from advertising such as The Yellow Pages, or by telephoning an advertised Driving School and being given an instructor who is able to fit you into his or her diary.

It is not uncommon for one learner driver to have several instructors before finding one who is suitable. In order to try to improve on this situation, 2Pass.eu Driving School is building a website to be launched early 2009, where our 2Pass.eu Driving Scool Instructors can display their Profile. It is an opportunity for the 2Pass.eu Driving School Instructor to say a bit about experience, personality etc and also to display a photograph if desired.

One of the major reasons why we, 2Pass.eu Driving School, are going down this road is due to the popularity of social websites such as Bebo, Facebook etc. It is nice to get an idea about someone who may help you to driving test success.

In addition to Instructor Profiles there will also be displayed the diaries for you to choose a driving lesson at a time and date that is convenient to you. You will also be able to pay for your driving lessons online and spread the cost of payments by the use of credit card facilities.

As all 2Pass.eu Driving School Driving Instructors or Driving Instructors associated with 2Pass.eu Driving School are fully qualified, you are assured of expert tuition. The Driving Standards Agency only grant a full licence to a Driving Instructor after they have passed all of the qualifying examinations. None of our instructors are Trainees!

Driving Skill:- Can you drive with reasonable restraint without being hesitant? Is your judgement of speed and distance accurate? These are skills a good driver possesses.

Do you know what to do when 'Meeting Traffic' or 'Crossing Traffic' or 'Overtaking A Moving Vehicle'? How about 'Adequate Clearance', do you know what is meant by the term?

Driving is an acquired skill. Repetition of certain routines enhance your chances of success but you need to know so much about the theory of driving. A 2Pass.eu Driving School driving instructor will help you to:-

Know what to do for the best when another driver flashes headlamps.
Drive 'Defensively' and understand what 'Defensive Driving' is all about.
Realise what 'Clearance' to allow based on the speed at which you are travelling.
Learn how to anticipate the actions of other road users.
Judge if it is safe to cross oncoming traffic when turning right.

In order to be a safe driver, all of the subjects mentioned above need to be learned and understood . Your 2Pass.eu Driving School driving instructor is very experienced and will transfer to you, knowledge acquired over years, in order to help you pass your driving test.

The 2Pass.eu Driving School website which is currently being developed is intended to provide extensive training facilities for our members. It is our intension to make this service available starting early in 2009. When launched the website will continue to be developed on an ongoing basis.

Ever wanted to book a driving lesson online? Possibly late in the evening at a time that is convenient to you. Maybe even pay by credit card in order to spread the cost of driving lessons over a period.

In the past it has not been possible to book a driving lesson online, in the evening or at weekends. 2Pass.eu Driving School intends to change this. Our 2Pass.eu Driving School website, which will be launched early in 2009 will change the way many people book their driving lessons.

Not only will it be possible to book driving lessons online, you will also be able to view the profiles of 2Pass.eu associated driving instructors.

When learning to drive or ride a motorcycle it is important that you practise safe driving skills, are aware of your responsibilities and knowledgeable of the theory. For this reason, throughout this publication are included random sections of text referring to the Driving syllabus, Show Me Tell Me Questions, Theory Questions and Driving Skills.

Syllabus element:- Dual Carriageways - When travelling at speeds greater than 40mph, ensure that your following distance is sufficient. Observe the two second rule and increase the safe distance when driving on wet or slippery roads.

RANDOM THEORY QUESTION

In which of the following situations should you avoid overtaking. Select one of the following.

a) Just after a bend.
b) In a one-way street.
c) On a 30mph road.
d) Approaching a dip in the road.

Answer - d.

Defensive Driving and Hazard Perception are desirable if your aim is to be a safe driver. Your ability to anticipate the actions of other drivers is a very worthwhile skill and can prevent accidents that less experienced drivers may not be able to.

During 2008 and continuing into 2009, the government will be looking at ways to improve the standards of new drivers.

There are many measures under consideration but a fundamental one is trying to ensure that potential new drivers receive a high standard of tuition.

Currently there is every chance that when you choose a driving instructor, the driving school you choose may provide you with a trainee instructor. This is not something that we recommend!

According to the website - http://www.learnerdriver.co.uk/ - very few trainee instructors actually qualify as Driving Instructors and yet while they are training, they could be taking your money. Apparently only 18% of trainee instructors pass all of the examinations required to become fully qualified.

2Pass.eu Driving school driving instructors are all fully qualified. Driving Instructors associated with 2Pass.eu Driving School have been successful in passing all of the qualifying tests and are registered with the Driving Standards Agency. We are all experts in the field of driving instruction!

Driving Skill:- Are your steering actions safe, smooth and accurate, and do you pass the wheel through your hands? Steering is an important consideration when learning to drive, aim to always keep your left hand to the left of the steering wheel and your right hand to the right. In this way your control of the steering wheel is maximised.

'Creeping and Peeping' is what driving instructors call the process of 'Emerging'.

Part of the Syllabus as it relates to driving, is knowing about 'Emerging' and how to do it safely. When you learn with 2Pass.eu Driving School, one of our expert instructors will show you and explain all about 'Emerging'. For example:-

Who has priority at a 'Give Way' junction and how to identify types of 'Give Ways'.
What routine to use for turning left or right when emerging from a minor road onto a major road.
The correct procedure for 'Going Ahead' at a crossroads.
Knowing what is meant by the terms 'Open Junction' and 'Closed Junction'.
What to do for the best when 'Peeping and Creeping' based on what you can see.
How and where to position when emerging at junctions where your views left and/or right are obstructed.

Most people start out on the process of learning to drive with the best of intentions. In order to succeed it is helpful to receive guidance from one that knows all about what you need to learn. The best advice is to choose a Driving Instructor who is suitably qualified and properly registered in order to provide tuition.

A 2Pass.eu Driving School driving instructor fits the bill. We are all what is known as 'Approved Driving Instructors' (ADI's). Very experienced drivers and registered with the Driving Standards Agency.

Unlike many Driving Schools, 2Pass.eu Driving School does not employ Trainee Instructors. All our Instructors are properly qualified and registered with the Driving Standards Agency.

Our driving lesson prices are very competitive, in fact it is quite possible that 2Pass.eu Driving School offer the lowest price driving lessons in this area.

Currently our Driving School is operational in Dundee with plans to expand our services to a much wider audience, starting early 2009.

What is a Hazard? A Hazard is anything that would cause you as a driver to change speed or direction, as you gain experience through your driving lessons you will be aware of situations that may develop in to a hazard

According to http://www.learnerdriver.co.uk/ the number of trainee driving instructors that are successful in qualifying in becoming an Approved Driving Instructor, registered with the Driving Standards Agency, is only 18%.

Put another way, 82 out of every 100 that train to become a driving instructor fail! You really do not want to be trained by a trainee! Statistics can be manipulated but the harsh fact is that most people who set out to become driving instructors do not succeed!

2Pass.eu Driving School is proud to say that all driving instructors associated with 2Pass.eu Driving school are qualified Approved Driving Instructors who are registered with the Driving Standards Agency. We are experts in what we do and you can be assured that when you are taught by one of us, you will receive tuition of the highest standard.

Our 2Pass.eu Driving School website will go live early in 2009. At that time, if we have one or more driving instructors associated with 2Pass.eu Driving School, you can view their profiles on our website.

Driving Skill:- Can you reverse left into a limited opening remaining reasonably close to the kerb, observing all around you? One of the manoeuvres you could be asked to perform is reversing into a side road. It needs to be done in a controlled manner whilst ensuring observation all around you .

Meeting Traffic, Overtaking, Crossing Traffic - What does it all mean?

Your 2Pass.eu Driving School driving instructor knows all about how to deal with the above and can guide you to driving test success by showing you what to do in any given situation. He or she can help with the following:-

Understanding the routine used for overtaking a moving vehicle.
Knowing what to do for the best when meeting traffic or crossing traffic.
Realising when it is safe or not safe to overtake a moving vehicle.
Advising on how much room to allow when passing parked vehicles or roadside obstructions.
Practising the '2 Second Rule'.

2Pass.eu Driving School has been created in order to offer a range of services for learner drivers. Help with Theory Training and Hazard Perception Training are examples of what the 2Pass.eu Website will provide as a supplement to the driving instruction services provided by our fully qualified driving instructors.

Learning to drive in Montrose or considering doing so?

The 2Pass.eu Driving School has ambitions to provide a range of services. In our pilot area of Dundee we already provide training in manual and automatic cars plus motorcycle training. When we launch the 2Pass.eu Driving School Franchise early in 2009 we should be able to offer these services if you live within a 20 mile radius of Montrose

Early in 2009, 2Pass.eu Driving School intend launching a website aimed at new drivers seeking to learn to drive, primarily those who use the internet in the search process.

One of the major reasons why so many people now use the internet is convenience. Yet it is not very convenient when one is wanting to book a driving lesson, only to find you must telephone in order to do so, or fill in a form and submit it to a driving school and wait for them to get in touch.

2Pass.eu Driving School will provide you with many features - Online booking of driving lessons 24hours a day, 7 days of the week, 365 days of the year. Online payment using various forms of payment including credit cards and paypal. The ability to select a 2Pass.eu associated driving instructor in this area and view his or her online profile.

2Pass.eu Driving School will cover this area and many more besides.

Learning to drive appears to many to be quite complex but in fact once you understand what is required of a good driver, learning what you need to becomes easier. To help understand what you need to know, I have inserted into this document, elements taken from the Driving Syllabus, The Theory Test, Driving skills and Show Me Tell Me questions.

Syllabus element:- Pedestrian Crossings - You should be able to recognise the different types of pedestrian crossing and show courtesy and consideration towards pedestrians.

At all crossings you should slow down and stop if there is anyone on the crossing. At zebra crossings you should slow down and be prepared to stop if there is anyone waiting to cross.

Give way to pedestrians on a Pelican Crossing when the amber light is flashing.

a) To help you choose the correct lane.
b) To help you keep the correct separation distance.
c) To make you aware of your speed.

Driving Instruction is a skilled occupation practised by thousands of men and woman who have trained to qualify for the position of Approved Driving Instructor.

The governing body that approves prospective driving instructors is the Driving Standards Agency.

What you may not know is that each year, thousands of new prospective driving instructors set out to achieve ADI status but only very few actually succeed. The website http://www.learnerdriver.co.uk state that only 18 trainees are successful for every 100 that tries.

How does this affect you? It could hit you in the pocket! If you choose a Driving School that charge the same lesson prices given by a trainee, you could find yourself paying out a large sum of money while being used as a guinea pig.

There is no such dilemma when you choose a 2Pass.eu Driving School Instructor. We only associate with fully qualified, very experienced Approved Driving Instructors. The bonus is that our lesson prices are extemely competitive.

Our 2Pass.eu Driving School Franchise begins early 2009. Our hope is that we will have driving instructors in this area. If we do you should be able to view driving instructor profiles from the 2Pass.eu website.

Driving Skill:- Are your steering actions safe, smooth and accurate, and do you pass the wheel through your hands? Steering is an important consideration when learning to drive, aim to always keep your left hand to the left of the steering wheel and your right hand to the right. In this way your control of the steering wheel is maximised.

Driving test success is not luck. It is the culmination of all you learn during your driving lessons. One part of the learning to drive syllabus covers the procedures for 'Approaching Junctions To Turn Left Or Right'.

A 2Pass.eu Driving School driving instructor will show you:-
How to understand the meaning of 'Major And Minor Roads'.
What routine to use for turning left or right from a major to minor road.
What you should be looking for before turning into a minor road.
What is meant by 'Corner Cutting' and why it is potentially dangerous.
What to do if an approaching driver 'Flashes His Headlamp'.
What you must not do to other drivers when turning either left or right.
What the correct procedure is for turning left or right into a minor road.
How to prioritise with regard to pedestrians you see crossing a road you intend turning into.

We at 2Pass.eu Driving School are all experienced and fully qualified driving instructors. Your 2Pass.eu Driving School driving instructor can advise you on the above plus all of the other syllabus items.

2Pass.eu Driving School currently operate in Dundee, Scotland and offer a range of services that include Theory and Hazard Perception training plus driving instruction. When we go live with our 2Pass.eu Driving School Franchise from early 2009 we hope to offer these services and more to a much wider audience.
