Hi Fran,

I have been teaching people to drive in the area since 1994 and I specialise in the older and more nervous pupils.

My website is at safemotoring.co.uk. It is being reworked at the moment and there is a lot missing but all the vital information is there.


Apparently there is a recommendation on this forum for me somewhere, which is why I just signed up to try to find it but I have never been able to.


Good luck with your goal Fran,

You will absolutely love the freedom,

Lois

Hi


I recently passed my test (around 20 years later than intended), and had a great experience with Mario Lee - I initially found him through Red but you can call him direct on 07738 638889. He's from Camberwell originally so knows the area very well.


Good luck

Colin

Hi there, I recently asked Michael from the Driving Academy to help get me through the test - I've been driving for more than 15 years in America and abroad but finally had to get my proper UK driver's license - even though I do have some driving experience with manual and on the left side of the road, i was a bit nervous, never having driven in London proper - Michael was great and the only one (I spoke to two other instructors before I chose him) who didn't try to make me feel bad and less confident and push me more lessons. I would strongly recommend him - you can reach him at 079 5647 7626.

    • Yes and I heard the other day that there is a higher conviction rate with trials heard by only a judge, vs juries, which makes sense when you think about it.  Also - call me cynical - I can't help but think that this justice reform story was thrown out to overshadow the Reeves / OBR / Budget story.  But I do agree with scrapping juries for fraud cases. 
    • judges are, by definition, a much narrower strata of society. The temptation to "rattle through" numbers, regardless of right, wrong or justice is fundamentally changed If we trust judges that much, why have we ever bothered with juries in the first place? (that's a rhetorical question btw - there is no sane answer which goes along the lines of "good point, judges only FTW"
    • Ah yes, of course, I'd forgotten that the cases will be heard by judges and not Mags. But how does losing juries mean less work for barristers, though? Surely all the other problems (no courtrooms, loos, witnesses etc etc) that stop cases going to trial, or slow trials down - will still exist? Then they'll still be billing the same? 
    • It's not magistrates that are needed, it's judges and they will rattle through these cases whether the loos are working or not. Barristers get a brief fee and a day rate.
