More about the Fordbridge driver training from Smart Drive

To become a driving instructor in the UK, you will need to pass the DVSA Approved Driving Instructor examination.  1) The exam is divided into three parts. The first part of the exam that deals with hazard perception is a multiple choice exam. The part one of the test is simply a more difficult version of the driver license test. The part two of the exam involves a more difficult version of the one that those seeking their driver license have to pass. In part three of the test, your ability to tutor and instruct is tested.
