So here is a little information on our approach.
What is the EDT?

It is an sad fact that Ireland is one of the worst countries in Europe for road deaths and accidents. In an effort to reduce these statistics the Road Safety Authority implemented a new and compulsory training initiative for new drivers. The Essential Driver Training or EDT.
The EDT syllabus requires that 12 structured driving lessons have to be completed, stamped and uploaded to the RSA website by a registered ADI.
This 12 lesson syllabus has been designed to ensure young drivers practice vital driving skills and develop a more comprehensive understanding of road safety.
That's the 'whats' and 'whys' of the EDT.

The Driving Test: Crucial preparation

First you must master the rules of the road, the road signs and skills involved to control a car safely. And then there is learning to pass the driving test. The test is your chance to show that you are safe enough to drive unaccompanied. Like any exam you have ever had to sit, 80% of passing the driving test is achieved well before the day of the test with proper preparation.
If you haven't done any preparation for your driving test the your are in the dark and being in the dark can cause a lot of fears to rise up. Fear can distract even the most experienced of drivers. So it makes perfect sense that we have to shine a light in the dark, remove the unknowns and the fear. Which is precisely what our pretest driving lessons will do.
It is standard practice by many driving instructors to keep giving you lessons until they 'think' you are ready. They 'think' you are ready but they do not really 'know'. And they do this because they do not truly understand the driving test, how you will be graded or what areas of your driving will cause you to fail. Luckily this is not how we operate. All our instructors have been trained by ex-testers so they fully understand the driving tester and what they are looking for from you on test day.
By the end you’ll understand fully the four stages of the test and understand exactly what the driving tester is looking for from you, how they will speak to you on the day and why and when the tester will mark the sheet.
