How should you prepare for your lesson 1 Essential Driver Training: (1st EDT)
To get the most of this lesson, you should familiarise yourself with:
– The rules of the road
– The vehicle that you will be taking the lesson in.
– The information on preparing your safety check.
As an ADI, I will introduce you to the primary vehicle controls as such as;
– Steering wheel, accelerator, brakes, clutch (where fitted); Gears & hand break.
You should also to have knowledge of the secondary control as such as:
– Indicator, windscreen wipers & washer (front & back where fitted), front & rear demister, horn, lights reflector, hazard light, parking light, deem head light, full head light & fog light.
The vehicle must be insured & roadworthy (insurance, road tax, NCT if applicable & technical part of vehicle)
The RSA would recommend to practice 3 hours driving with your sponsor or an ADI before your 1st EDT lesson.
At the end of 1st EDT lesson, log book will be stamp & EDT lesson will be logged in the RSA Portal. As the EDT lesson 1 can be challenging & that you are struggling with lesson it; maybe more practice with an ADI, your sponsor, or both would be advisable. (The RSA are recommending 3 hours tuition between each EDT).
If you need more help on EDT you can email me for further details on francis@castletownsom.com.
