We had 2 more passes on Friday. Congratulations to both Paul Tait and Alastair McConville who passed with Phil after taking an Intensive Driving Course.

Paul Tait
Paul said: “Phil was an excellent teacher who didn’t get frustrated when I became a bit angry with myself. His calmness helped me and I can’t thank him enough.Great price and well worth the money, I wish I had done it sooner.”

A pupil recently asked us what happens when you take your driving test and already have 6 points on your provisional driving licence. She was worried because she’d heard that if you get 6 points on your driving licence after passing your driving test you have to re-take the test. She’d called the DSA but was still confused. So what’s the answer?
Well she’s correct that if you get 6 points on your driving licence within 2 years of passing your driving test the you loose your licence and have to take the driving test again. But in this case, because she already had 6 points on her provisional licence she can take the test, and assuming she passes, get a full UK driving licence.
However, the 6 points will remain on her full licence for 4 years. She’ll have to contact the DVLA to contact the DVLA once the 4 years have expired to get them removed – that doesn’t happen automatically.
Importantly, if she gets any more points within 2 year of passing her driving test then her licence will be revoked and she’ll need to take another driving test. That’s another £62 for a driving test plus a few more hours with an instructor.
The 6 points on her licence will likely mean higher insurance premiums when she comes to insure a car and once the 2 year period is up, if she goes on to amount a total of 12 points she’ll face a full ban from driving.

Well done to Martin Taft who passed his driving test with Phil on Thursday after taking an Intensive Driving Course in Bristol.

Martin said: “the course was excellent, with the lessons being tailored to my learning curve. I can not more highly reconmend taking an intensive course with Momentum, i have tried to pass my driving test with over schools and by doing a lesson a week and this has not worked for me however with the focus, experience and professionilism of the team at Momentum helped me pass my test with ease. My advice as a now a happy driving licence owner to anyone looking to take lessons and pass their test is book a assessment lesson with Momentum, this will give you an idea of what the lessons will be like (this is a free commitment from Momentum to you) and then book the suitable intensive course and take a positive step towards passing your test.”
Martin had already gone on to book his Pass Plus course.
