Just passed my test and over the moon. Walid and Silvia were amazing throughout my training. I started the training on the Wednesday passed the following Monday after some intense hours at the wheel. I should add they were great at spotting when I needed a break. I may have their voices in my mind for the next few years when driving, but it was worth it. I personally did this to drive a motorhome with my kids in it with the main aim to feel confident and safe enough to doit. I can honestly say I do and thats only thanks to their great training.

Excellent, amazing instructors. I passed my class 2 HGV with four days training. Cannot fault the professionalism and diligence of the staff. Would thoroughly recommend Dorset Driver Training to anyone looking to advance their licence categories. Well pleased with the service i received.

Great value and great training. Turned me from a car driver to a professional truck driver. Walid's years of professionalism and experience shine through. Beware! He doesn't miss a thing! You think, no he didn't see that. He did.
That's the sort of training that will get you through not just the test but the rest of your driving career.

I spent a week with Walid at Dorset Driver Training and passed my Truck and Bus Test as a result of nothing other than his brilliant training and years of experience. Thanks for making the process thoroughly enjoyable, Highly Recommended.
