Toyota Corolla & Hyundai Getz

Both vehicles are fitted with Dual controls for safety. A driving school is not permitted to teach students to drive unless the vehicles are fitted with dual controls. Once fitted, the vehicles must pass government inspection.

Joe provides an on-going record of student achievement. This is in the form of a detailed checklist which is completed after each lesson. It gives the student (and parents) feedback about the skills that need to be reviewed and fine – tuned.
