PARENTAL INVOLVEMENT
Do you feel confident enough to teach your child in your car?
Do you know how and what you should be teaching your child to do and look out for?
We welcome and encourage you, the parents, to come out with your child as they learn with us. We can teach you how to teach your child to assist you with giving them more time practising what they learn with us. We like to work with you to hopefully achieve the common goal of producing a better, safer driver for our roads enabling us all to get a better nights sleep when they are out on their own.
We believe that by getting regular good quallity lessons whilst your learning is an investment in the rest of your driving life. It gives you a better basis to start your real on road lessons once you've obtained your probationary licence and your on your own.

Defensive Driving
What is Defensive Driving?
Defensive Driving is: Being able to look ahead at the traffic, analise what may or may not happen. Being able to use this information to safley plan your trip with the least amount of stress for all road users, with the least amount of wear and tear on your car.
What is Advanced Driving?
Advanced driving is: Having the knowledge of how to control your vehicle in an emergency situation.
In all of our lessons we encourage defensive driving and teach our students how to plan for multipal outcomes from the same situation. We believe by teaching this from the onset it will lesson the chance of our clients panicking in an emergency situation.
We are members of a team who teach Advanced Driving at Metec an off road complex.
