Does driving around the Coventry ring road confuse you? Ever wondered what the rules actually are for exiting and entering correctly and safely? Are you adding to confusion and traffic build up without knowing it?

I see vehicles being driven incorrectly on the ring road every time I use it. There are rules about using the ring road that every driver should be following. From what I am seeing daily, I am sure some drivers are completely unaware what the rules are or have not worked it out from all the information given to them. This adds to confusion, congestion and the potential for accidents.

Here are my top 5 tips for safely dealing with one of Coventry’s business parts of the road network.

Supporting your youngster through the process of learning to drive from the very first lesson to passing their test and letting them take to the road for the first time - perhaps in your car! Is a crucial and important part of the whole learning to drive process. Your youngster is going to need as much help, support and guidance as you can give them.


But you have some worries! What are the things that you can you do that will encourage and support your youngster to become not just a good driver but a really excellent driver?

Wow, that was a surprise!

So, there I was during the Christmas break just finishing off the last of the turkey in a nice sandwich and then 'DING'! My iPad notifies me I have an email confirming that I have been shortlisted to receive an Driving Instructor Industry Award! a GOLDEN 'L'

I was a little surprised to say the least. The nomination for the Award in my category is presented to a particular Driving Instructor who has gone above and beyond the call of duty to help their pupils or others succeed. To then go on to read some of the fantastic comments by past pupils who nominated me, really made my Christmas.
