IAM driving course

Everywhere, people like to use their brake pedal as much as their throttle. Getting verage speed near the speed limit is how you make progress.

I had the pleasure of overtaking an SLK55 AMG in my Insight as I came up to him doing 40mph down a good B road, on the straight he then accelerated to a whopping 50mph. :rolleyes:

What's the speed limit of the road?

Yes as it will teach you how to drive a car whereas driving lessons just teach you to operate a car and pass a test.

It's a shame just how often I see this posted and mentioned in real life. Nothing could be further from the truth of an instructor who is doing his job properly.

Unfortunately there are many who don't, but a good instructor will be spending a good 75% of lesson time on observations, anticipation of other road users, defensive driving skills, road positioning, reading the road etc etc.
