You may have heard stories from people that have had a poor experience whilst learning to drive, so I hope that you find the following tips useful and that they help you to avoid making the most common mistakes when you start learning to drive!
Many Driving Instructors are honest, hardworking and very good at what they do, but how do you know that the person teaching you is not someone passing themselves off as a registered Driving Instructor?
There are currently over 40,000 qualified, registered driving instructors in the UK. Furthermore only qualified or trainee instructors can legally accept payment for giving driving lessons.
Here's 3 tips to help keep you safe and find a Great Driving instructor!
Tip 1 -Referrals
Personal recommendation often proves to be an excellent way to find a driving instructor, as those involved can offer first-hand experience. Ask family and friends who have recently passed their driving test for details of their Instructor.

| TIP 2- Check the badge! |
Only fully qualified or trainee driving instructors can legally take payment for lessons and must display their registration badge in the left-hand corner of their windscreen.
A valid green badge means they are fully qualified and a valid pink badge means they are a trainee.
Tip 3 -Have a trial lesson!
I highly recommend that you book a 2-hour introductory lesson to see how you get on with your instructor and to make sure they are able to teach you in a way that you like to learn. Not all instructor's issue refunds and there's probably nothing worse than having to complete a block of 30 hours that you've pre-paid, whilst dreading every lesson!
