Welcome to the "Allan Heighway School Of Motoring" Web site. On the left you will find links to various pages throughtout the site. Please feel free to explore and find out more about learning to drive.

Learning to drive in our current climate is not at all difficult, but it does require the correct training. Many instructors will teach you to pass the test but, is that what you want? Learning to drive is about being able to handle and assess any situation on the road and progress through it safely. In Clacton it is possible to pass your test without ever having travelled on a dual carriageway! Clearly this is not a good situation to be in. Your instructor should take you on all roads except motorways and train you to understand how the process of driving is handled in all situations.

I am a DSA (Driving Standards Association) registered Instructor and member of the IAM (Institute of advanced motorists), I am also a member of Rospa, both these organisations require a test of driving ability as does the DSA and I have passed these tests and feel that my training methods present a very well rounded approach encompassing all aspects of driving. Better training can only be a good thing.
