An Environmentally Friendlier Driving School

Hi my name is Adam McBride. Let me introduce you to Go Green driving school.
I started Go Green driving school six years ago after leaving a well known driving school where I had worked for eight years.

I wanted to do things a little differently so I came up with the idea of an environmentally friendlier driving school.
The aim was to be able to teach people to drive in a manner that has less of an impact on the environment and also teach people how to drive in an expert manner.
I even wrote to the prime minister Tony Blair, at the time for advice and funding for my project and to give me some useful contacts, and in all fairness he wrote back congratulating me on my unique idea also giving me advice on who was able to help.

I use a Citroen C3 1.4HDI to teach people to drive in. It is a very comfortable and reliable car and all of the pupils enjoy driving it. It has very low emissions, only 115grams of CO2 per kilometer which makes it a catergory B on the energy guide.
We dont use roof signs that you see on most training schools as this causes drag whilst driving around and then it uses more fuel and damages the environment, and personally I think they look out of date.
We use energy saving tyres also all the paper we use in your driver packs is recycled paper.
We teach eco driving techniques as standard.

Go Green was up and in business in April 2007. We grew as a school very rapidly and soon there were 9 Go Green cars providing lessons.

We dont advertise anymore and just work on pupil referals. How many schools can say that even after going through two recessions? Its a fact I am very proud of.

Hi my name is Adam McBride.

I have been an ADI (approved driving instructor) for fourteen years now and I love the career I have chosen.

I have had hundreds of people pass their driving test with me and I am still in touch with a lot of them on facebook.

Its a real privilege to be asked to teach someone to drive and help the get a full driving licence. Its something I do very thoroughly and by test day the pupil knows they are ready to take the test.

I dont actually advertise for business anymore, all my drivers recommend friends and family and this is a fact I am very proud of.

I teach eco safe driving techniques as standard and use all the modern methods to teach to a very high standard which gets great results on test day. I always say "Do it properly the first time and you will succeed".

Im very proud of Go Green and its fabulous reputation - we have even taught examiners children - that should speak volumes.

Mock tests

Mock tests are a very important part of your training. It could save you a lot of money in the long run. A mock test will show your instructor if you are on target for your driving test. A mock test should be conducted a few weeks before the practical test, the reason for this is that if for some reason the mock test goes wrong, you will be able to have more practise to get it right. It will show any weaknesses in your driving ability and also its good to get another persons view point on your driving. If you are not ready we will simply move your test a little at no cost to you , taking the pressure away and giving you more chance to pass first time.
The mock tester will be fully up to date with the Driving Standards Agency practical driving test marking system. Also it will give the candidate a feeling of what the test will feel like when sat next to a stranger under test conditions. Giving you the best opportunity to pass the driving test first time.
Hi everyone, if you are having lessons, or have already passed, please feel free to add any comments or share your experiences of your time with our driving school. Thanks for your input, Adam.
