Well done to Mary E, who passed with just 4 driver faults this morning.
She also equals the record amongst my pupils for learning in the shortest time, from not ever having driven at all to passing first time – 23 hours.
I guess that this means I can boast a 100% pass rate… for 2011 (must keep that last bit in the small print).
I should point out that I am not in favour of people passing quickly (i.e. from start date to finish date), because experience is something that only comes with time and cannot be rushed. For that reason, I don’t like intensive courses. Mary has her own car and has done plenty of structured private practice between lessons with me. She is comfortable and competent when driving, and this pass was not one of those that could have gone either way: I would have put money on her passing.
