Are You REALLY Test Ready? 🤔🚗🏁

It's one of the most common questions driving instructors get.

The easiest way to find out? Ask yourself this...

Does your instructor, parent or supervising driver still:

❎️ Tell you when to change gear?
❎ ️Remind you to check your mirrors? 👀
❎ ️Tell you when it's safe to pull away?
❎ ️Explain road signs?
❎ ️Remind you of the speed limit?
❎️ Tell you to slow down or stop?
❎️ Help you correct your reverse manoeuvres?
❎️ Guide you through spiral roundabouts?
❎️ Help you merge onto dual carriageways?
❎️ Talk you through difficult junctions?
❎️ Help you with the sat nav?
❎️ Step in to keep you or others safe?...the list could go on!

If you answered yes to any of these, you're probably not fully ready yet.

Remember, the driving test isn't about being perfect. But it is a risk assessment about proving you can drive safely and make safe decisions independently without any HELP.

Passing by the smallest margin might get you a licence, but would you genuinely feel confident driving on your own the very next day?

🍻If you’re having a few drinks whilst watching the sport this weekend, remember 4 beers can keep you above the legal limit for up to 12 and a half hours.

If you have somewhere to be the next day, think before you drink or organise another way there 🛻

⚽🍻Warm weather. World Cup. Good times. Make sure you get home safely. ☀️

With World Cup matches, warm sunshine and plenty of people enjoying a drink in gardens, pubs and BBQs this weekend, remember that alcohol and driving never mix.

Hot weather can make the effects of alcohol even more noticeable. You may become dehydrated, feel tired more quickly and your judgement, reactions and coordination can all be affected.

If you're drinking:
🚫 Don't drive.
🚖 Plan your journey home.
🚶 Walk, use public transport or arrange a designated driver.

Drink driving is one of the Fatal 5 causes of serious and fatal collisions on our roads.

Not very many drivers would consider driving under the influence of alcohol, but a single decision to drive after drinking can change lives forever. You could:

• Kill or seriously injure yourself, a friend or a stranger.
• Face arrest, a driving ban, an unlimited fine or imprisonment.
• Lose your job, your independence and future opportunities.
• Live with the consequences of that decision for the rest of your life.

Enjoy the football. Enjoy the sunshine. But if you're drinking, don't drive, even the morning after.

Drive sober. Arrive safely.
