Driving Instructor Training

Even if you plan to teach in a manual car, you can still take your part two (advanced driving test) in an automatic. Driving an automatic reduces the risk of making mistakes with gear changes or misusing the clutch. REMEMBER, you are only allowed to make five driving fault errors and taking your part two test in an automatic can increase your chances.

You will reduce the risk of eco-driving issues, which are mostly related to driving manual cars.

People ask me how hard a ADI part two advanced driving test is because they have been informed it is really just like a normal driving test. Consider this. A normal driving test you are allowed to have fifteen driving faults and the sixteenth is serious. A advanced driving test you are allowed to make five driving faults the the sixth is serious. So by logic alone the advanced driving test has to be, at least, three times harder than a normal test and being taught by someone who has first hand experience of ADI training is essential.

With this in mind when a potential driving instructor, PDI pink badge holder takes their part three standards check their lesson needs to show a good structure and teaching techniques. Someone who has been an advanced driving instructor, green badge can easily fall behind with their teaching skills and may need a top-up.

A common mis-conception is someone who has a good pass rate. This does not necessarily mean they will do well with a standards check, although it may give an indication of dedication by ADI, which is commendable.
