I 100% recommend using Jacqui After failing my first driving test I felt demoralised and found it difficult to focus on trying again. However Jacqui gave me a lot encourage and reassured me that I. Karl is an awesome teacher and a great bloke. He does not only teach you everything you need to know but he makes you feel completely safe behind a wheel.
As a photo is required for your licence the DVLA can use your passport photo if you have one. If you don't have one, or you want to use a different one, this will need to be sent to the DVLA separately. You can find costs for all licence types here. Before you start the hazard perception part of the test, you'll be shown a short video clip about how it works before being shown a series of video clips on a computer screen.
Tell me where you'd find the information for the recommended tyre pressures for this car and how tyre pressures should be checked. Manufacturer's guide, use a reliable pressure gauge, check and adjust pressures when tyres are cold, don't forget spare tyre, remember to refit valve caps. Tell me how you make sure your head restraint is correctly adjusted so it provides the best protection in the event of a crash.
Unfortuantely, statistics show that new drivers of any age are more likely to have a collission within the first two years of passing their test than at any other time in their driving career. While this is really just down to a lack of experience insurance premiums merely reflect the increased risk.

Passed my test today. Can not thank What the L Driving School enough. Jacqueline Smith is a legend in my eyes. Started driving with a different school 13 months ago and it was the worst experience, nearly making me give up. In April Jacqui contacted me within 10 minutes of me making an enquiry and the rest is history. Great lady, amazing sense of humour, patient and never lost faith in me. I'm 48 and left driving quite late, I would highly recommend the school for older learners like me. Equally I witnessed the interactions with younger pupils and it was excellent. Great experience and would highly
