In order to pass your practical driving test, you must commit no more than 15 driving faults, considered not to be of a serious or dangerous nature (these are often referred to as 'minors'). The DSA state that only 1 in 4000 tests result with zero driving faults, and the average driving test results in about 8 faults.
The following students are just some who have recently passed their Driving Test with Andy Winton Driving School. Their comments are genuine of the services they have received.
A SUPERB RESULT for Jenny, passing on her first attempt for 20 years with ZERO driving faults! Jenny had not driven for around 20 years (after a test fail) before finally deciding to have another go. A 'Clean Sheet' is very rare, with the DSA suggesting just 1 in 4000 tests result in no driver faults being recorded. Well done Jenny, now enjoy your new found freedom! Jenny also took Motorway lessons shortly after passing her test.
Jenny sent me the following e-mail- " Andy has been a wonderful instructor from start to finish. At every stage of learning I felt safe and in good hands. I couldn't recommend a driving instructor more highly and wish that everyone out there would drive as well as Andy would teach them. Thanks again!"

WELL DONE to Karen with a first time pass and just one driving fault, a fantastic result! As the Examiner said, continue driving to that very high standard Karen!
Karen's e-mail to me- "As everyone has, I've had my ups and downs with driving. Most don't have them while learning though; but I lost my confidence due to another road user. Without Andy, I wouldn't have been able to pass today and I definitely wouldn't have been able to do it with so little driving faults. Andy really goes all out to make you feel comfortable and welcome. I highly recommend new drivers to learn with Andy; he is a brilliant teacher. Thanks for everything Andy"
CONGRATULATIONS Ollie with a first time pass after completing a Semi - Intensive course!
Quote from Ollie- "Andy has been a great instructor, creating a calm, stress free atmosphere for me to learn to drive. I will recommend Andy to anyone wanting to learn to drive. Thanks again!"

WELL DONE to Alex, with a first time pass and just 2 driver faults after a Halfway Course!
Quote from Alex- "I had two previous instructors before Andy. With the two previous instructors I did not enjoy my lessons, but with Andy I enjoyed them and this meant it was easier and quicker to learn. I spent far less money on my lessons with Andy and the results were miles better than with the others.
My only regret is not switching to Andy earlier. Andy is a great instructor; he makes the lessons interesting and educational at the same time. I would recommend him to anyone
Once again thank you very much."
CONGRATULATIONS to Tracy who passed her driving test with just 1 driver fault. A great result Tracy, well done and enjoy your motoring!
