Kayley passed her Driving Test today at the first time of asking in a rainy Durham with a single driving fault. Wet conditions, not the best to do your test in but Kayley kept her nerve and smashed it. A great result! Well done!

Driving on an International Driving Licence

Driving on an International Driving Licence

We get requests all of the time for Drivers currently holding a full non UK licence outside of the UK but only possessing an International Licence for driving on UK roads. Remember that this licence currently only allows you to drive for a maximum of 12 months in the UK then YOU MUST take and Pass the UK driving tests. In order to apply for the UK driving test (Theory then Practical) you must first apply for a Provisional Licence in order for you to be able to book the theory test and once you receive your UK Provisional Licence, your International Licence (and most probably your insurance) become invalid. You cannot legally drive without being suitably accompanied and insured - the penalty is quite severe for not following the law. Find yourself a decent instructor, if it isn’t us there are many fine Driving Schools in the area. Remember - Keep it safe, Keep it legal!

Lisa passes first time

With great sadness I must announce that Lisa has passed her driving test at the first attempt. Sadness because I’ll have to say goodbye to the delicious Cheesecakes that she regularly made for me. Such a professional creation too. I’m not sad that she passed her test, she thoroughly deserved it!

Driving in Fog

Remember that Driving in Fog or Mist presents different hazards depending on how thick it is, how fast you are driving, whether it’s day or night time. If visibility is reduced, slow down - turn your lights on - if visibility is reduced to less that 100m, turn on your fog lights remembering to turn them off again when visibility is increased to more than 100m as the bright fog lights may dazzle your fellow drivers. Remember, reduce your speed, be seen - Don’t become a statistic!
