People think driving instructors charge approx £40£/45 an hour and keep every penny.

Absolutely. 👌

🌱 The car survives on photosynthesis.
☁️ Petrol is squeezed from clouds.
🔧 Brake pads regenerate like lizard tails.
⚙️ The gearbox has unlimited lives.
📱 The clutch is made by Nokia.
🛞 The suspension heals itself while you’re asleep.
🕳️ Potholes politely move out of your way, so tyres live forever
❌ Learners never cancel.
💷 Nobody ever asks, “Can I just pay you next week?”
⏰ The DVSA tests are always on time and never rearranged or cancelled!
🤑 Breaks, holidays and sickness days are of course magically ✨️ sorted and paid
🚑Whiplash, stress and other health problems aren't even something to worry about

💰 It’s basically passive income… with dual controls.
🤣 we never end up in dangerous situations or deal with aggressive people as everyone are angels 😇 👼

This was yesterday in York. I whole heartedly agree. Students must keep themselves safe and check your Instructor is licenced. A couple of my instructor friends where pulled up yesterday and we are more than happy to show the police we are fully licensed and insured to teach.
