Learn In A Real Medium Rigid Truck

Moving from a car to a Medium Rigid truck is a big step. The vehicle is larger, visibility is different and you need to think differently about positioning, turning, mirrors and manoeuvring.

That's why practical training matters.

Not good. I could barely understand the instructor and that annoyed me and she kept worrying about teaching me stuff that is redundant unless she can get me feeling confident about driving to begin with. I told her I wasn't confident and didn't like driving and never have and she ignored it. Not happy. Don't get your lessons from here!! Oh and she turned up in an electric car.. not helpful when it's not the type of car I'll be driving if I get my licence. DO BETTER!! MAKE YOUR CARS MORE REALISTIC FOR THE AVERAGE PERSON AND HIRE INSTRUCTORS WHO CAN SPEAK CLEAR AND PROPER ENGLISH AND THAT HAVE SOME PEOPLE SKILLS. AN INSTRUCTOR SHOULD BE FRIENDLY & WARM & ENGAGING NOT COLD & STIFF AND UNABLE TO SPEAK CLEARLY AND FLUENTLY!!
