Dead chuffed with myself
« on: 23 May 2007, 12:13:56 »
Went for an Advanced Driving assessment last Sunday.

Grades are:-

5 Gold
4 Silver
3 Silver
2 Bronze
1 Ungraded

I achieved 4.5 Silver, without any tuition.

Quite pleased with myself.

No seriously, you have to keep up with the flow of traffic, whilst observing the speed limits.

Motorways, dual carriageways, ordinary roads and country lanes.

Took about 1/2 an hour.

The next stage is I get allocated a tutor, (ex police or equiv.) who guides you on your weak points.

The markings are:-

Excellent
Very Good
Good
Adequate

I had 9 excellents, 14 very goods, 4 goods, and 1 adequate.

Very good AA, but you'll have to excuse my cynicism. All this doesn't stop you getting hit up the arse by an impatient boy racer. :D

I agree, but as I'm getting older, I still want to make sure my driving skills are up to scratch.
