Yet another first time pass for Horizon!
Chris Green passed his test yesterday on the first attempt, despite giving his instructor Gavin a near heart attack with the mistakes he made in the lesson prior to the test!
It obviously sharpened him up a bit and he went on to pass with 8 minor driving faults.
All’s well that ends well! Well done Chris
Congratulations to Robin Ball from Walkley who has passed first time at Middlewood Test Centre. As he works in Leeds, Robin is sensibly going to do his Pass Plus, which incorporates motorway driving
Proudly exhibiting her pass certificate is Dianna Coupe from Norfolk Park.
Dianna passed first time today with just 3 minor driving faults and is now set to ‘steal’ the family car from her husband! Little does she know that he might have plans for her to drive when they go out for the evening!
Congratulations to Nick Perkins from Beighton, who passed his test in just seven weeks by doing a semi-intensive course.
Nick runs his own business and it was therefore important he got mobile as quickly as possible. We were happy to oblige and very pleased when he passed first time with just 5 minor faults.
Congratulations to Simon Aldwinckle after passing his test at Middlewood. Naturally, after taking lessons with Gavin, it was a first timer!
It was a foggy day for Rob’s test but that didn’t stop him putting in a shining performance. Just three faults! A great performance.
And to go one better, it was a first time pass for Linnea Petterson with just two faults! Really well done. Hover over the picture to see Linnea’s comments
The DSA are moving towards using computer-generated Hazard Perception clips and have produced two prototypes.
Have a look and give some feedback.
Personally, I think they look OK.
As has been previously well-documented, young drivers are much more at risk of having an accident than older ones. The reasons for this are not necessarily related to a lack of actual driving skills but research has shown that they are more probably due to external influences,such as fatigue, peer presure (showing off) and more….
Sheffield City Council recently started an initiative called ‘Learn Safe, Drive Safe‘ and our instructors have undergone extra training in order to allow them to deliver this additional information to young learner drivers in an attempt to change attitudes, and therefore make them safer drivers in the long term.

A superb result for Gez Quinn on Tuesday in passing his driving test in Rotherham after only visiting the place twice before in his life, and that was on two driving lessons earlier in the week. Well done!
