  • How I passed my standards check at the first attempt. My Standards Check took place in January. This video covers what happened after receiving the letter from the DVSA. From the training I used to choosing the student for the driving lesson, to choosing the subject on the standards check.

    Well done Travis :D I guess it's one of the only times where you get to feel as us learners do and getting that "You have passed" words :D I remember my instructor who was a new instructor telling me about how she didn't think she would pass her instructor test and that she was nervous and doubting herself, yet she did and she was the best instructor out of all 3 instructors I had been with. It bridged that gap between teacher and student and even though I was nervous, hearing her say that sort of calmed me down to the fact that we are all human and that we are not going to be perfect. We all have doubts. I guess preperation is key.

      @@JamesTravis When they do this standards test, do you think it would be a good idea to give each instructor a "grade" that they can show off, so if an Instructor is super good, they can have like an A+ grade and students can choose better. Maybe not, but I know for sure as a student it would have helped me to choose who to go with. To be honest it's a complete gamble who you are getting in the car with.

      @@jamief6507 late to the party, but they do give grades. If they get a grade A they potentially won’t get a standard test so quick, if you get a grade B you’ll get a standard in about half the time of a grade A instructor. Driving instructors have to have standards checks to ensure they are keeping to a high standard not just to get their license. An other way for instructors to get a standard check quicker is through student test results. Each driving test fail could potentially have a negative effect on the instructor this is why many won’t allow you to take a test in their car if they don’t think you are ready.

    Had my last Standards Check back on 15th March 2017. Got a grade B and the examiner told me my next one Check would be in 2 or 3 years from then. So I guess I am due one very soon. But going on your experience when you said was overdue I guess I could still wait a while. My previous Standards Check was also overdue. I was told in September 2013 with a 4 grade on the old check test that they would leave me alone for a couple of years. In the end the letter I got from them after that was the same day as the EU referendum (June 2016). My first attempt was late August 16 and failed a bit badly. So got some training and just missed out on the 2nd attempt in early November of that year having got a letter about a week and a half after the first go. Got a letter in earlish January 17 and finally got through. But I don't want to rely on your most recent check being overdue or mine from between September 13 and August 16 being overdue. I have to be on my toes and expect it any time.

    Excellent brilliant. Cannot find words to say thanks passed 44/51 10 minutes wait for the examiner results to arrive was like wait for 10 decades. Listening again and again is the motto thanks T God bless you and others in line.

      I am sure there is always a wait, then when the letter arrives it is usually a few months later. Good luck when it arrives.

    Basically the standard check is like part 3 . I was studying for part 1 but i didn't know you have to do a standard check every 3/4 years. That just put me off to be honest

    My instructor points out any mistakes I make while driving while I'm driving but dont seems to ever plan the next lesson , I had an issue with steering too wide on turns but he didnt give any advice on how to sort it which dont fill me with confidence at all

    Am I wrong? I believe you can't choose subject, it's down to the pupil to say what they want to work on.. within reason of course. Could you clear this matter up?

    • @JamesTravis
      @JamesTravis  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Like you said within reason. If the student asks for something that is not going to work, then you will come up with a compramise that could lead to what they want.

      It lasts for 12 months from purchasing. But you can print off all the info for future reference. I had it all lined up. Then as soon as I got the letter I bought it.
