Get in Gear Young Driver Training
It Doesn’t Need To End At The Driving Test
With the Get in Gear, young drivers receive targeted advanced driver training, taking their road driver skills to a much higher level. This is a post test driving course that reveals many useful practical techniques that are essential for effective and safer road driving.
What is Special About a Get in Gear Driver
Developing into an effective driver doesn’t just stop at the driving test, as that is just level–one, the bottom rung of the ladder. There really is so much more on offer, and one of the best ways to move forward from here 
is the Get in Gear advanced driver training course for young drivers in Bucks.
Take bend assessment, for example. When driving on a country road did anyone ever tell you how to work out how sharp the next bend will be? It’s true, it can be done, but you have to know how. The Get in Gear young drivers training course is where it is at to give you the additional driver skills to not only assess bends in the road, but a whole load of other amazing driving skills.
This is Not Pass Plus!
The Get in Gear young drivers advanced course is exciting,
it is demanding, it is very rewarding and different to Pass Plus.
This is advanced driver training, and is absolutely nothing like a learner driving lesson, Pass Plus, or anything that you may have considered before. The content is really quite different, as this is about real driving in the real world. Through Get in Gear, you get all the good stuff that not only will you want to use, but driver skills which actually make sense.
- Part–One — A group theory session that can involve as many as 25 young drivers, all looking for a successful outcome to their driving course. This is not a condescending or patronising period of finger–wagging preaching, supported by corny videos. This is group participation at its best within which you will be invited to become actively involved. You can express your concerns, air your views and generally talk of those areas of driving that you want to know about. The session can last around two hours.
- Part–Two — You are assigned to your personal driver trainer for the two practical driving sessions and the first will concern rural road driving. For two–hours you will learn about assessing bends, road positioning, using the performance potential of your car to make smooth and effortless progress whilst always being in control. This isn’t driving around in little circuits, or over and over the same roads, as here you will drive a route that will take almost the whole session time to finish.
- Part–Three — Is another two–hour practical driving session, this time the topic is motorways and other fast–flow roads. With your personal Get in Gear advanced driving instructor you will be driving on roads, such as the M25, mixing it with the trucks, busses and other vehicles. This is where you will come to terms with how to effectively drive on what can be intimidating routes with a trainer who has actually been trained in motorway driving techniques.
