In America most people drive automatic cars. They refer to manual cars as "stick shift" the stick being the gear lever. In this country (United Kingdom) the position is very different with the vast majority preferring to drive a car that has a clutch.

All things are not created equal - this is quite a common saying that also applies to automatic cars. Not all automatic cars are the same in the manner in which you drive them. This said there is one common feature, or to be more accurate, the absence of a common feature - the clutch - automatics do not have a clutch pedal.

Semi automatics are not treated the same as automatics for the purposes of a driving test. This is because although there is no clutch, the driver still needs to select a gear via the use of a gear stick or lever.

A good driver needs to possess many things which can be broken down into a few categories. Knowledge of Theory, an understanding of the Driving Skills you need to acquire, and appreciation of the Driving Syllabus and ability to carry out all that these require.

Hazard Perception Element - What is a Hazard? A Hazard is anything that would cause you as a driver to change speed or direction, as you gain experience through your driving lessons you will be aware of situations that may develop in to a hazard

Hazard Perception Element - An example of a hazard could be a horse and rider that come into view as you are driving along. The reason this may become a hazard is if you approach too fast or too close, the horse may react by rearing and throwing the rider into the path of your car. In order to minimise the risk, slow down and give the horse and rider a wide berth.

Show Me Tell Me Question:- Tell me how you make sure your head restraint is correctly adjusted so it provides the best protection in the event of a crash

Show Me Tell Me Question:- Tell me how you would check the tyres to ensure that they have sufficient tread depth and that their general condition is safe to use on the road.
