Jamie O'Connell
Jamie O'Connell - I passed my test!
My driving instructor Colman was fantastic. He was friendly, very patient and gave great clear instruction. I felt well prepared when it came to the test (I passed two weeks back). I would strongly recommend him to anyone who is learning to drive. You won't find a better instructor!

More than likely you fall into one of two categories. You need to accomplish or begin your 12 EDT driving lessons. Or you have finished your Essential Driver Training and have a test to prepare for.
The EDT: The facts?

You may not realise but in the past Ireland was one of the leading nations for the worst road accident stats in Europe. The Road Safety Authority were required to take action so they created a new driver training syllabus that all new drivers have to complete. The Essential Driver Training or EDT.
The EDT is made up of 12 compulsory structured driving lessons that must be provided by a RSA approved driving instructor to all new drivers.
These 12 lessons were created with the intention of filling in the crucial driving skill gaps that new drivers had that have been ultimately causing the high level of road accidents each year.
That's the 'whats' and 'whys' of the EDT.
BOOM... POP QUIZDo You Know The Answer?
How many types of pedestrian crossing are there?
Two, controlled (pedestrian traffic lights) and uncontrolled (flashing amber beacons).
The Test: Fail to Plan, Plan to Fail

There is grasping the crucial driving skills and growing your knowledge of road signs and road safety. And then there is studying to pass the driving test. Being allowed to drive solo on Durrow roads is a privilege you must earn and the driving test is your opportunity to do it. And obviously, as with any kind of test, if you are familiar with the conditions and what to anticipate you can successfully pass effortlessly.
If you need to prepare for the test then your head is most likely a wash with different emotions. Fear of screwing up, fear of nervousness getting the better of you or just fear of the unknown. Well have no fear.
It is normal practice by many driving instructors to keep giving you driving lessons until they 'think' you are ready. They 'think' you are ready but they do not truly 'know'. This is down to a total lack of knowledge on how the tester thinks and grades you during the driving test. This is not how we do things. Our team of instructors have been properly trained by ex-testers so they completely understand the driving tester and what they are looking for from you on test day.
We don’t like abandoning things to chance. We simulate for you all 4 stages of the test, show you all the driving test routes and concentrate on the elements of your driving that are most likely to get you the most marks or fail you.
Using this method we get our pupils over the line in half the time it takes other driving schools. That means less lessons and less expense to our students.

Pavani Rynhart - I passed my test!
I had 2-3 lessons with before my test. He came highly recommended and they were right! He is very patient, observant and his vast experience previously as a tester was helpful. I have driven for many years but failed a test once before. He was able to prep me to be the right mental view of the whole driving test experience. It comes to show that being mentally prepared is just as important and not many instructors can help with that! Thanks ! Dr. Punitha Rynhart
