Driving Lessons and Instructor Training in Kent England

What have i been doing since lockdown?

i hope you are all well, so it was a shock to be told you have to stay indoors, don’t go out, don’t work unless you are needed. The government have done a fantastic job by making sure the NHS are able to cope, me and my family have done our best to stay away from others, my wife was diagnosed with very high blood pressure when this happened, ( 217/ 111) so we made sure we kept away, also my son was born with a chest infection and stomach infection so we are careful, i know we are going to get it every one will, but its about not overwhelming the hospitals so they can save as many people as possible. I am a driving instructor, i have not worked since 23rd March, i love what i do but we all need to be safe, I hope everyone is safe.

Driving tests suspended for up to 3 months – tests for critical workers to continue and be prioritised We are suspending driving tests for up to 3 months from Saturday 21 March 2020 as there is extended contact between candidates and examiners in vehicles. Motorcycle tests are also being suspended.  We have put in place plans to provide tests for people who provide essential services. This includes: car driving tests motorcycle tests ADI tests lorry, coach and bus driving tests We will get in touch with everyone with a test booked during this time to let them know their test has been suspended and that we will automatically re-book them. In addition all theory tests have been cancelled until Monday 20 April 2020 and refunds will be issued. Out of pocket expenses If a test has been suspended with less than 3 days’ notice, you and your pupils will be able to claim out-of-pocket expenses. We will be monitoring the emerging situation and will let you know if we need to cancel any more tests. Unsubscribe  |  View email in browser
