     "Lee was always extremely patient, supportive as well as making a calm and comfortable environment. Especially with college and work it was important for me to have a flexible instructor, and Lee always took this into account, especially when it came to around the time of my test when i was hoping for more of his time. I would like to say a huge Thankyou to Lee for all of his time and commitment to his job, and helping me pass first time :)"

    method is just what I needed. No matter how many times I threw my toys out of thepram
    Lee persisted and encouraged me to keep calm and carry on. And after four tests I finally
    passed!! I would like to thank Lee for his patience and friendly bubblypersonality and would definatley recommend him to any learner!!

     " When I originally started learning to drive I decided to choose a well known driving school, I found it incredibly impersonal and as if they were holding me back to earn more from my student loan. Until I found Passlee where the lessons where affordable and had a real personal friendly touch, it was wonderful to have an instructor who took the time to understand his students and what their individual learning styles were. I gained confidence with every lesson and instead of just passing my test I learnt how to drive."

     " I had only had 6 lessons with Lee, after failing my driving test twice (not with Lee), but these 6 lessons, were the more funniest times of my life. Lee is a brilliant instructor, who is really relaxed and laid back, but is focused on the job and helped me to succeed and pass! With a quirky personality, it's hard not to love him and he defiantly makes the lesson fly so fast! "

     "I found the lesson's through a friend, they were recommended. Lesson's with Lee.. The car was nice to drive, instruction was easy to follow with a relaxed atmoshere, if there were area's of weakness they were practiced until test standard. Lee is understanding if you are struggling with a particular section, and they were a good price."

     " Learning to drive with Lee was one of the best things i could have done. He always makes you feel confident even when you cut people up and nearly kill him :) which is good. But seriously Lee has a really laid back attitude, but also puts you straight when you are going wrong. Which makes learning with him not only effective, but fun at the same time. I passed, and intend to do my pass plus with him. Book a lesson with him while you can!!! You WILL NOT regret it! "

    "Choosing PassLee Driving School to teach me to drive was a brilliant choice. Lee's lessons were excellent! Well -structured, very good fun but most of all you left each one feeling like you were one step closer to passing your test and being a driver. I have a very busy working life and the flexibillity of times available for lessons was fantastic! Most important of all when I passed my test I knew I was ready to drive on my own. I would ( and will ) recommend him to anybody that is looking to learn to drive. Thanks Lee for your patience"

    "I tried two instructors before finding PassLee Driving School online and each of the told me I would have to have 30 lessons before I could pass. With PassLee I was up to pass standard within just 15 lessons because of the relaxed and individual nature of the lessons. For me personally it was the best fit for me to learn how to drive and pass as soon as possible"

Junctions

 

When taking your practical driving test your examiner will expect you to-

  • Use the MSM routine effectively and in good time
  • Brake gently and in good time
  • Position your vehicle correctly
  • Look for pedestrians, obstacles and traffic
  • Read road signs correctly
  • Assess the speed of traffic.

Priorities At Junctions
Give way signs and road markings, stop signs and traffic lights indicate priorities. On an uncontrolled junction, where there are no signs or markings indicating priority all vehicles have equal priority. If you encounter an uncontrolled junction you should slow down, look for traffic in all directions and be prepared to stop and give way if necessary.

Pedestrians and Priority
If you turn into a road that pedestrians have already started to cross then they have priority and you must give way.

Emerging From Junctions
When emerging from a junction you may be joining heavy or fast moving traffic. If making a right turn there is the additional hazard of crossing the path of oncoming vehicles. Cautious and careful judgment needs to be exercised and you should be constantly assessing the changing road environment.

When approaching and emerging left from a junction:

  • as you approach the junction check your mirrors
  • Signal to the left
  • position your car to the left of the road with the front bumper just behind the stop or give way line
  • reduce your speed and be prepared to stop and give way
  • before pulling out look in all directions, check your left mirror for cyclists and motorcyclists passing on your nearside
  • as you pull out check your mirrors and accelerate to a safe speed
  • make sure your indicator is cancelled

When approaching and emerging right from a junction:

  • Follow the above procedure but position you car as close to the centre of the road as you can

When stopping at a junction for more the a few seconds you should apply your handbrake. This will prevent your car being shunted into traffic if hit from behind.

Assessing Traffic Speed
Remember you must be able to pull out of a junction without forcing other vehicles to slow down or change position. On the other hand you mustn't hesitate and miss a valid opportunity to pull out (do this on your driving test and you will earn a minor fault). To make such judgments takes a driver sometime to learn.
