Well done Tom, who passed on Tuesday with 7 driver faults. This was his second attempt – he failed a couple of weeks ago for not checking his mirrors when pulling up and there was a car following. Anyone who is taking lessons and reading this should take note: you CAN fail for not checking your mirrors, so learn to do it instead of trying to cut corners and searching the web asking daft questions about NOT doing it.
Tom has been a great pupil to teach – really pleasant and a quick learner – and hopefully this will give him the step up he needs for his future job progression. In fact, when he failed a couple of weeks ago, he was the one of three that week I’d have put most money on passing. It just shows how easy it is to blow it if you aren’t careful.
