Location Overview – Watford is a historic town in Hertfordshire and is 15 miles northwest of Central London, on the banks of the River Colne. At the start of the 20th century, the town grew fast, and new roads were created in Callowland, North Watford, and West Watford, which was farmland before this. Watford stands where the River Colne could be crossed on an ancient trackway from the southeast to the northwest. Watford’s High Street still follows the line of this route. We have provided Advanced Driver

training in and around Watford since 2011 with fantastic results and feedback; we have completed driver training in and around Watford, including Bushey, Croxley Green, Radlett, and Stanmore.

Our advanced courses cover a range of elements bespoke to the driver’s needs. Below are the common things we look at:

* Looking at a drivers specific driving history to make a bespoke training plan
* How to boost driving confidence
* Learn how to drive in a more environmentally friendly way
* Becoming a safer urban driver – identifying and dealing with pedestrians and cyclists
* Increasing focus on speed and excessive speed
* Identifying high-risk driving – such as at night, driving tired or when stressed
* Modifying attitude towards a safer, more proactive way to drive
* Manoeuvres, reversing, and driving in confined spaces
* Driving safety on the motorway and dual carriageways
* Looking ahead and developing powers of observation

You will be given a full driving report after each session – sent via email. Your report is documented with us and has a verification number attached – proof you have taken training with a qualified DVSA-registered professional.

You can see how you improved in your report and in what areas, along with some useful tips to ensure you keep up your improved standard of driving.

Key learning points of our driver training:

* Demonstrating your intention to become a safer, improved driver
* Deal with and address any issues with driving
* Become a safer, more skilful motorist
* Addressing any issues which could be impacting you as a driver

For commercial clients, the training is a little different– the person who receives the training is often not the person who has decided training is needed.

While we help the driver to improve, from a commercial perspective, your business will benefit from the following:

* Potentially lowering your fleet insurance premiums
* Demonstrating your businesses Duty of Care
* Showing you care
* Providing the opportunity for the employee to develop their driving skills
* Lower fuel costs

Watford is close to several motorway junctions, the M1 motorway and the M25 London Orbital Motorway, north of the town – this is where we provide a lot of our motorway driver training for clients in the Watford area. The A41 joins the M1 at Elstree, and the

A45 joins the North Orbital road, the A414, which takes you to Cambridge north and towards Oxfordshire to the west. Our Bespoke driver training can really help both private drivers and corporate companies with fleets of drivers. Our highly trained tutors will come to your home or office address, and we will take you out on the road in your own vehicle. Every course will produce a report showing how you improved throughout the session.

Our courses will vary in structure, but courses are based and priced on time duration:

3.5hr – half-day session

7hr session – full-day session, which can be split between two drivers if necessary

2 x 3.5hr – two half-day sessions

3 x 3.5hr sessions – three half-day sessions.

Longer Duration Courses:

Our fully tailored 3, 4 and 5 x 3.5hr half-day sessions are suited, for those with specific issues with driving, such as driving anxiety, significant driving issues on particular roads, or who may not have driven for a very long time. These longer courses are booked mainly by private individuals, although they are also open to our business clients.

These longer-duration courses are great for those facing particular (often very specific) issues, as building up your skill and confidence levels can take time. The time between the sessions will also be valuable as it allows you to reflect, absorb and practise what has been covered in the earlier sessions.

Contact us for more advice:

We would be delighted to chat with you and discuss your exact needs. We are trained to advise on course information and how the courses run, and we also have a non-judgemental approach for drivers who wish to open up and discuss specific issues. For many people, this is the first step in reaching out on their journey to confident driving.
