- Minimum Speed Limit
Minimum Speed Limit There are times when a minimum speed is required, such as in some tunnels. These blue signs with white writing indicate that vehicles must maintain at least a minimum speed (in this case 30mph). Once a minimum speed limit has ended, then a blue sign with the limit and a red line through it will be shown. The speed limit will then become either what is signposted, or that of the prevailing type of road, for example the open road speed limit.

- Country Roads
Country Roads As you drive along a country road you will discover that the road ahead is windy with hedgroads un unfamiliar situations. You need to become aware a plan for the unexpected. At 4front Driving School we encourage our students to question themselves – What you can see? Do you have a clear view of the road ahead? Country roads are often narrow too and as we progress down the windy you will come across blind bends. You need to think about what might be just out of sight. Can you cope if you need to stop suddenly? You may not be familiar with the route so those tight corners and blind bends could well come as a surprise to you, therefore look out for the obvious warning signs and disappearing bends ahead. How far a head can you see? What’s the weather like? Wet weather, the mulch from leaves and mud from farm vehicles all make a difference to tyre grip. How much traffic is there and what kind of traffic is it? Don’t let beautiful scenery and seemingly empty country roads fool you. You need to be alert as you’ll get little, if any, warning. For example, you might find farm animals in the road, horse riders, pedestrians, cyclists or even huge farm machines that take up most of the road. You can never predict what’s going to happen on your journey. What you can do is use your hazard perception skills which you need to develop as a learner, keep scanning the road ahead and all around you and drive at a safe speed that will allow you stop safely if you come across an unexpected hazard.

- Cats Eyes
Cats Eyes and Reflective Studs The reflective studs that you see on some roads otherwise known as cats eyes reflect light from your headlights lighting up the road ahead of you when driving at night. Cats eyes come in different colours to represent different parts of the road. It is important to understand what they represent. White – lane separation or the middle of the road / carriageway. Red- The left hand side edge of the road. Yellow – Central reservation of a dual carriageway or motorway, Green studs – The edge of the main carriageway at lay-bys and slip roads Green / Yellow – temporary adjustments to roadworks.

- One Way Streets
One Way Streets. As part of your learner driver training program with 4front Driving School we will cover areas such as one way streets and one way systems and expect you to become independent when it comes to awareness and compitentcy in one way streets too. One way streets and one-way systems are likely be a part of the driving test route, although this depends on what types of roads exist where the test centre is located. You will also face them in everyday driving and will need to be on the look out for them in new areas that you have not driven in before. One-way streets Rules Traffic MUST travel in the direction indicated by signs. Buses and/or cycles may have a contraflow lane. Choose the correct lane for your exit as soon as you can. Do not change lanes suddenly, always follow the MSPSL routine when you need to change lanes. Unless road signs or markings indicate otherwise, you should use the left-hand lane when going left the right-hand lane when going right the most appropriate lane when going straight ahead. Remember – traffic could be passing on both sides. During a driving test, the examiner will not try and trick you into driving up a one-way street in the wrong direction. They may however say something along the lines of ‘take the next available left’ and if the next road on the left is a one-way road with no entry from your direction, you will need to be sure what you are doing. Remain vigilant for all road signs whilst driving and in the case of one-way streets, no left or right turn signs. Red circular road signs or circular signs with a red ring indicate a prohibition. A one-way road will usually have a no left or no right turn sign placed a short distance before the junction to inform motorists. On the junction itself, there will be a no entry road sign. A blue repeated sign will appear along the one way street to remind you the driver that it is still one way and to which direction you should travel. Road signs will also inform you of what happens at the end of the one-way road. Often a one-way road will end, giving way to road with two-way traffic. There are also One Way Systems.

- One Way Systems
One Way Systems One-way systems can present a confusing challenge to not only learner drivers, but experienced drivers alike. Therefore at 4front Driving School we encourage our students to familiarize themselves with the one way Systems around towns they learn in which in turn will help them to adapt their understanding of how they work with new systems they come across in the future. They can often involve multiple lanes. During a driving test, the examiner will either tell you which lane they would like you to take, or ask you to ‘follow the signs for’ – leaving it for you to decide which lane is appropriate. Look out for signs, road markings or follow the basic rule left hand lane for left and right hand lane for right. Left hand lane for straight on unless lane markings say otherwise or there are more than 2 lanes. Many driving tests are failed on one-way systems due to learner drivers using the incorrect lane, realising they are in the incorrect lane and accessing the correct lane unsafely. Driving tests are not failed due to using the incorrect lane providing it is legal and safe. If you find yourself in the wrong lane, try and access the correct lane only if it is safe and legal to do so otherwise take the safest route and tell the examiner you realise your mistake and have made the safest decision. You will need to use the MSPSL routine and check your blind spot before changing lanes. Check road markings too. If it is a solid continuous white line then it does not permit you to cross. If you cannot access the correct lane, remain in your current lane and the examiner will take you on an alternative route. ONE-WAY ROAD MARKINGS One-way road markings One-way road markings are often placed on one-way roads and systems, especially those with high traffic. They are used as another visual aid alongside signs. Get in lane in good time as leaving it too late may prevent you from gaining access to the correct lane.

- Show me Tell Me
‘Tell me’ questions 1. Tell me how you’d check that the brakes are working before starting a journey. Brakes should not feel spongy or slack. Brakes should be tested as you set off. Vehicle should not pull to one side. 2. Tell me where you’d find the information for the recommended tyre pressures for this car and how tyre pressures should be checked. Manufacturer’s guide, use a reliable pressure gauge, check and adjust pressures when tyres are cold, don’t forget spare tyre, remember to refit valve caps. 3. Tell me how you make sure your head restraint is correctly adjusted so it provides the best protection in the event of a crash. The head restraint should be adjusted so the rigid part of the head restraint is at least as high as the eye or top of the ears, and as close to the back of the head as is comfortable. Note: Some restraints might not be adjustable. 4. Tell me how you’d check the tyres to ensure that they have sufficient tread depth and that their general condition is safe to use on the road. No cuts and bulges, 1.6mm of tread depth across the central three-quarters of the breadth of the tyre, and around the entire outer circumference of the tyre. 5. Tell me how you’d check that the headlights and tail lights are working. You don’t need to exit the vehicle. Explain you’d operate the switch (turn on ignition if necessary), then walk round vehicle (as this is a ‘tell me’ question, you don’t need to physically check the lights). 6. Tell me how you’d know if there was a problem with your anti-lock braking system. Warning light should illuminate if there is a fault with the anti-lock braking system. 7. Tell me how you’d check the direction indicators are working. You don’t need to exit the vehicle. Explain you’d operate the switch (turn on ignition if necessary), and then walk round vehicle (as this is a ‘tell me’ question, you don’t need to physically check the lights). 8. Tell me how you’d check the brake lights are working on this car. Explain you’d operate the brake pedal, make use of reflections in windows or doors, or ask someone to help. 9. Tell me how you’d check the power-assisted steering is working before starting a journey. If the steering becomes heavy, the system may not be working properly. Before starting a journey, 2 simple checks can be made. Gentle pressure on the steering wheel, maintained while the engine is started, should result in a slight but noticeable movement as the system begins to operate. Alternatively turning the steering wheel just after moving off will give an immediate indication that the power assistance is functioning. 10. Tell me how you’d switch on the rear fog light(s) and explain when you’d use it/them. You don’t need to exit the vehicle. Operate switch (turn on dipped headlights and ignition if necessary). Check warning light is on. Explain use. 11. Tell me how you switch your headlight from dipped to main beam and explain how you’d know the main beam is on. Operate switch (with ignition or engine on if necessary), check with main beam warning light. 12. Open the bonnet and tell me how you’d check that the engine has sufficient oil. Identify dipstick/oil level indicator, describe check of oil level against the minimum and maximum markers. 13. Open the bonnet and tell me how you’d check that the engine has sufficient engine coolant. Identify high and low level markings on header tank where fitted or radiator filler cap, and describe how to top up to correct level. 14. Open the bonnet and tell me how you’d check that you have a safe level of hydraulic brake fluid. Identify reservoir, check level against high and low markings. You need to open the bonnet and tell the examiner how you’d do the check if you’re asked question 12, 13 or 14. ‘Show me’ questions When it’s safe to do so, can you show me how you wash and clean the rear windscreen? When it’s safe to do so, can you show me how you wash and clean the front windscreen? When it’s safe to do so, can you show me how you’d switch on your dipped headlights? When it’s safe to do so, can you show me how you’d set the rear demister? When it’s safe to do so, can you show me how you’d operate the horn? When it’s safe to do so, can you show me how you’d demist the front windscreen? When it’s safe to do so, can you show me how you’d open and close the side window?

- crossings
Types of pedestrian crossings When learning to drive a focus of a lesson can be based around pedestrian crossings. During your driving test, the examiner will be looking at how you deal with or react to pedestrian crossings. They want to make sure that you are planning ahead, showing awareness and responding to them them in the safest possible way. Pedestrian crossings get put into two main categories – uncontrolled and traffic light controlled. For all crossings: -In queuing traffic, you should keep the crossing clear. On approach to a crossing there will be white zigzag lines on both sides of the road to highlight there is a pedestrian crossing ahead – these also prevent people parking at any time and is a place you make no attempt to overtake. You should take extra care where the view of either side of the crossing is blocked by queuing traffic or incorrectly parked vehicles. Pedestrians may be crossing between stationary vehicles. Allow pedestrians plenty of time to cross and do not harass them by revving your engine or edging forward. Zebra Crossing When learning to drive with 4front Driving School you are taught to look ahead, plan ahead and be aware of zebra crossings and how they work. They are uncontrolled crossings which are marked by black and white stripes on the road, you will notice two yellow flashing beacons in the distance when approach this type of crossing which gives you time to plan and prepare. On approach to the zebra crossing there will be white zigzag lines on both sides of the road to highlight there is a pedestrian crossing ahead – these also prevent people parking at any time and is a place you make no attempt to overtake. On your approach to the zebra crossing, you need to look out for anyone waiting at the crossing ready to cross, on the crossing, alreadycrossing, or if there is a someone walking towards the crossing as you approach who is likely to cross. Depending on what the situation is you need to either slow down or come to a complete stop. Make sure that you allow the pedestrian to fully cross the road before you set off again. Allow more time for stopping on wet or icy roads Do not wave or use your horn to invite pedestrians across; this could be dangerous if another vehicle is approaching zebra crossing with a central island is two separate crossings Signal-controlled crossings A signal-controlled crossing is a crossing that is controlled by traffic lights. Below are some of the most common controlled crossings that you will come across. Pelican Crossing Pelican crossings. These are signal-controlled crossings where flashing amber follows the red ‘Stop’ light. You MUST stop when the red light shows. When the amber light is flashing, you MUST give way to any pedestrians on the crossing. If the amber light is flashing and there are no pedestrians on the crossing, you may proceed with caution. Pelican crossings which go straight across the road are one crossing, even when there is a central island. You MUST wait for pedestrians who are crossing from the other side of the island. Give way to anyone still crossing after the signal for vehicles has changed to green. This advice applies to all crossings. Puffin Crossings Puffin crossings are intelligent crossings unlike pelican crossings. They have sensors on top of the lights and in the pavement so they know when a person has finished crossing. In this way, the lights will only stay red as long as it takes for the person to cross and will go back to green once that person is across. This can help to keep traffic moving during busy times, it also has the benefit of giving pedestrians as long as they need to cross without being rushed by a timer. However there is no amber flashing light. Instead you will get a red and amber combined light sequence before they turn green. The red and amber means stop, do not go, you can however get your vehicle ready to go and then proceed when it is safe to do so. Toucan Crossings Toucan crossings enable cyclists and pedestrians to cross the road at the same point. Two Can Cross. A cyclist can cross without having to get off their bike as it is usually built into a cycle lane. Toucan crossings have a green and red bike alongside the red and green man lights for the pedestrians. They also have sensors and no amber flashing lights. Equestrian / Pegasus Crossings As the name suggests, equestrian crossings are designed for horse riders. They allow a rider to stay on their horse as the button to request to cross is higher than normal. Approaching pedestrian crossings as a driver Identifying Pedestrian Crossings As a careful and safe driver, you will always be in aware of what is coming up on the road ahead of you. In this way, you will be able to identify the indications that a pedestrian crossing is approaching – this could be in the form of a triangular warning sign, flashing yellow beacons or zigzag markings as you approach. Mirror Signal Position Speed Look Now you have identified the crossing, you need to go through the MSPSL routine so that you can drive up to the crossing in a safe way. Mirrors – look in all of your mirrors so that you can see what is behind you, and be able to make an accurate assessment of the distance and speed of the traffic that is following you Signal – the only signal you need will be your brake lights which will come on as you slow down, this will indicate to other drivers that are behind you that you are reducing your speed. Position your vehicle so that you are within your road markings, lane markings and correct position at the crossing markers. You will need to stop at the solid white line. Not after. Speed – plan ahead so that you can react early and reduce the speed of the vehicle down slowly and gradually, reducing the risk of being rear ended. You will probably need to bring the vehicle to a stoom Look out for the pedestrians, making sure they have cleared the crossing and look out for the changes of traffic lights so that you are ready to respond.

- Pulling in on the left during your test
During your Driving test you will be asked to find a safe and suitable place to pull in on the left. The examiner is looking for your Observation following the MSPSL rountine, Not hitting the kerb, The distance that you leave between the car and the kerb (this should be half a car door width / a drain cover width. That you pull in safely, That you don’t pull in on unauthorised road markings, bus stops, junctions or driveways, That you apply the parking brake and put the car into neutral. The examiner will thank you and ask you when you are ready to pull away and follow the road ahead. At this point the examiner is looking for Your blind spot checks, Your MSPSL routine, That you pull away safely. Unfortunately if the examiner sees a fault he may ask you to pull in again. If this becomes a repeated fault then it could result in a fail. This does not mean that the examiner won’t ask you to pull in on the left more than once even if you do it perfectly. They are just making sure that each time you are completing the task correctly, in control and safely.

- MSPSL
MSPSL DRIVING ROUTINE MSPSL routine is an abbreviation of Mirror, Signal, Position, Speed, Look. At 4front Driving School we encourage our students to use this process to become safe and competent drivers. MSPSL is an extension of the old school familiar process MSM (Mirror, Signal, Manoeuvre). You are expected to follow this process throughout your driving test and beyond. During the process of learning to drive, the MSPSL routine will have been explained to you from day one of your driving lessons at 4front Driving School. MSPSL should be applied on approaching any junction type and applied to other driving situations such as changing lanes and overtaking as well as dealing with traffic lights, crossings and completing manoeuvres. During a driving test, the examiner will be expecting you to demonstrate proficiency of the MSPSL routine in a safe, appropriately timed and courteous manner. MirrorYou should be checking your rear view mirror and side mirrors throughout your Driving, checking your rear view mirror befor braking unless it’s an emergency stop. And check your mirrors including blind spots before pulling out, pulling in a much more. Most importantly mirrors come first. SignalThe signal can be anything from your indicators, brake lights, reverse lights or hand gesture. This is the 2nd phase. Position Part 3 is the position of your vehicle to stop, start or complete a manoeuvre, to park, get ready to pull in, get ready to change lanes etc. Speed Then it is managing the speed to deal with the situation, control the braking, match the gears to the speed, increase speed, stop. LookYou still need to look, look around, check for hazards, check your position check for other road users, be observant. 5 stages of the processM mirrorS signalP position S speedL look You need to develop some self discipline to adapt this process naturally into you every day driving routines and become a safe and competent driver.

- Emergency Stop
The Emergency Stop As part of your practical driving test you may be asked to complete an Emergency Stop. This is not a manoeuvre, it is an additional task and you have a one in 3 chances of getting it in your test. At 4front Driving School we describe a situation to our students that delivers a senario. Imagine a child had stepped out in-front of your moving vehicle. You would need to react almost instantly to avoid harming the child, bringing the vehicle to an abrupt but safe stop. To represent an emergency situation the examiner will say they will raise his/her hand and call out STOP! At which point you need to react. To do this you are expected to hit the brake pedal as quickly and firmly as possible to bringing the vehicle to a stop as quickly and as safely as possible. Don’t be afraid to hit the pedal hard, it is designed to deal with this kind of abuse. You are expected to apply the clutch after the brake pedal and not before to stop the engine stalling or cutting out, but if you apply it to early then the car will travel further. In a real emergency situation, if you apply the clutch after the brake and do this correctly then this will also save time, help you control the vehicle and help you out if you have to move on quickly. When you hit the brake pedal to complete the emergency stop there is no time to look in your mirrors before hand, so you are not expected too in your test. You are expected however to be a safe driver who will keep looking around, checking your mirrors on regular intervals throughout the time you are driving so that you are aware of everything and everyone around you. Do not attempt to signal and keep both hands on the steering wheel for maximum control. Once you have come to a stop, apply the parking brake, and select neutral. The examiner will say something like, “thank you, I won’t be asking you to do that again, When you are ready please drive on.” If the engine has stalled, try not to get flustered and simply restart the car. Now it’s time to get the car ready in first gear, remove the parking brake and observe all mirrors and over both shoulders checking all blind spots, making sure there are no cars, bikes or other road users passing you.

The job will involve working with all sorts of people so you’ll need good people skills as well as: patience and understanding as an instructor, a thorough knowledge of the theory and practical driving test, an ability to teach, awareness of changes in the regulations for driving tests, as well as driving instruction and the highway code, business sense, And the great thing is you can be your own boss. At 4front Driving School we can offer you all your training needs, all we ask is that you are committed and withhold our company’s fantastic reputation for delivering a fantastic and caring service towards our students. A bit about me – I am Simon, an ADI who trained a number of years ago to become a driving instructor as I believed I had the qualities, patients and credentials needed to become a successful driving instructor. I was a teacher for 12 years, originally in secondary education, I later moved into primary but the workload and stress was all to much. That might sound familiar. I wanted to be my own boss, no more targets, no-one looking over me, calling me into their office – `Sound Familiar?` I worked for a local driving school to begin with, learnt the ropes and how to be successful in this field of work. After a year or so I felt confident I could grow my own business and not rely on others help anymore. So at 4front Driving School we can offer you a package to suit your needs – we have competitive rates and no ties. If you fancy meeting up to discuss your situation, options or way we can help you then please don’t hesitate to contact me for a chat. Things you will need to consider You’ll need to check that you’re eligible to apply to become a driving instructor. Take a quick test on GOV.UK to find out whether you can apply. This test will also tell you what to do next to become an ADI. How to apply First you’ll need to apply to the Driver and Vehicle Standards Agency (DVSA) to become an ADI. To do this you’ll need to give details about your current driving licence including any driving offences. You’ll also need a criminal records disclosure number. You can apply to become an ADI on GOV.UK. Criminal record check Before you can apply to become an ADI, you’ll need to have a criminal record check. Apply for your check at GOV.UK Next steps When you’ve been accepted to start the qualifying process, you can start your training towards the three ADI tests. Part 1: theory test Part 2: practical driving test Part 3: instructional ability test. You’ll have to pass the tests in this order and you must pass them within a two-year period before you can join the ADI register. Once you have completed Part 1 we advise you undergo some driver training to get you prepared for part 2. Most drivers develop habits over the years that need to be ironed out. You only get 3 attempts at this part otherwise you have to wait 2 years before you can start again from scratch. Each attempt is costly and time consuming to you. Once you have successfully completed part 2 then we can undergo the relevant training for part 3. When we think you are ready you can apply for a pink PDI badge which will allow you to teach whilst getting paid with real students that we can provide for you. Some of this will involve us observing your teaching so that you can develop the right skills to pass part 3. You will be required to take 40 hours of Part 3 training before you will be entitled to apply for a trainee licence. We can offer more training if you need it or request it. Want to know more?

- Our Aims & Objectives @ 4front Driving School
Our Aims & Objectives @ 4front Driving School At 4front Driving School we understand that each individual will learn in their own individual way and at their own speed. You may be someone who likes to be given time to reflect on your learning, so we provide opportunities and resources to help you achieve this such as our blog, teaching style and focus on client centred learning. We do not want you to feel pressured to move on to the next step if you do not feel ready. We want to create agreed targets with you that we set with you each lesson so that you progress at your own pace. Every individual has their own learning style and therefore we will always try and adapt our teaching approach to suit your requirements, for example you may be someone who likes to read up on the activity before hand so that you come to your lessons prepared. Or you may be the kinesthetic type who likes to try out different methods to find the technique to suit the task that works for you. Our client-centred learning is an approach to learning that takes into account how you – the learner prefers to learn. When people learn in this way they are more likely to retain information and skills. Our students are also encouraged to take responsibility for their learning at an early stage. You may want to keep a self reflection journal to highlight what went well, what didn’t go so well and what you want to work on next time. Self reflection also works well in your theory revision. We encourage our students to keep a log of questions they got wrong in their practice tests and keep a log of them with the correct answers. We encourage post-it notes used in revision books so that you can read up on areas that you may not be fully familiar with. At the end of the day you need to look at what type of learner you are and this will help us develop a strategy to teach you to your full potential. Read on to find out what type of learner you are… #4frontDrivingSchool #DrivingSchoolLoughborough #OurAimsampObjectives4frontDrivingSchool #DrivingLessonsLoughborough #clientcentredlearning
