COVID-19 SAFETY PROTOCOL
As most of the Covid-19 restrictions have now been lifted it will now be up to each individual as to whether they wish to wear a face mask or not on a driving lesson
For the foreseeable future I will personally continue to wear a mask.
Windows will need to be slightly open to allow fresh air circulate throughout the vehicle.
Only the driving instructor and the learner driver can be in the vehicle. Any person who accompanies the learner driver to their driving lesson will no longer be allowed to sit in the back of the vehicle during the driving lesson.
*Please bring the correct lesson fee with you as it will no longer be possible to stop at shops or ATM while on the driving lesson.*
Any learner driver displaying signs of illness or who become aware that they may have been in contact with a person infected with Covid-19 will be expected to inform their ADI at the earliest opportunity and cancel any scheduled driving lessons.

Masks are no longer mandatory while doing a driving test. Some driver testers are continuing to wear a mask while others are not. It is up to each individual test candidate whether they wish to wear a mask or not.

NCT DISC MUST BE IN DATE WHEN PRESENTING FOR DRIVING TESTS. VEHICLES DISPLAYING EXPIRED NCT DISCS WILL NO LONGER BE BROUGHT OUT ON TEST. PREVIOUSLY IF THE NCT DISC WAS EXPIRED BY LESS THAN 3 MONTHS AND PROOF OF A NCT BOOKING WAS PROVIDED THEN DRIVING TESTS WERE ALLOWED TO BE CONDUCTED. FROM MARCH 27TH 2023 THIS WILL NO LONGER BE THE CASE

Tyres: Presently many vehicles are being refused to be brought out on driving test because of worn tyres and low tyre pressure. There MUST be a minimum depth of 1.6mm of tyre tread across the tyre.

Insurance Disc: The green strip must be on the side of the insurance disc displayed on the windscreen. Fold it back if necessary to fit in the holder but do not cut it off. If your insurance company emails you your insurance certificate and disc then you must print it off in Colour, the strip on the side MUST be green.
