Its Drive Time Driving school- Driving lessons Nottingham

A third of young drivers who passed their test in the last year read or send text messages while on the road, a Nottinghamshire survey has shown.

Almost half of those questioned by Nottinghamshire Road Safety Partnership admitted to setting up sat-nav systems while on the move while 8 per cent confessed to driving while under the influence of drink or drugs.

Two thirds who had acquired their licence also admitted to being distracted by singing and dancing, while a quarter said they felt they drove too fast in variable road conditions.

It doesn’t matter, how fast,  how good or how expensive your vehicle is, it is you, THE DRIVER, who has the last say whether or not you drive that vehicle safely, .

Driver skill and driver attitude are two key areas which determine your approach behind the wheel.

There is, after all, a lot of enjoyment and satisfaction to be gained from showing your skill and ability but also courtesy and consideration to those around you. Apart from the reward of a nod or a smile in appreciation, you will have the added satisfaction of knowing that you are making our roads much safer.

The right attitude and behaviour are the key factors to becoming a good driver .
