My last post was quite a negative one but it is not common so I don't really worry.
I just thought I would share a nice positive experience with you to balance it out.
Male drivers between 17 and 24 have a terrible reputation for dangerous and irresponsible driving but I have only come accross two with a bad attitude. One I sent to another instructor (male) because I felt he would benefit from a positive male role model and the other one I gently suggested he finish college first as his maturity level wasn't quite there yet (his mother agreed with me).
All the other lads I have taught have been sensible and careful and determined not to be bad drivers. It is sad that lads like these are penalised by the very noticeable bad drivers who push up the insurance bill for everyone.
So I am teaching a 21 year old who, lucky. has a very sensible and safe Dad and he has also seen so many of his friends hurt he will always be a responsible driver.
Lewis:"Can I have a lesson on Monday and Tuesday next week cos I am off work?"
Me: "Yes I can fit you on both those days."
Lewis: "Actually, can I leave Tuesday...I might go out for a drink on Monday night."
You see...they are not all bad
