Are the rest of us safe, or should we avoid the roads for a while? ;)

 i would give it a little while - i dont think i drive as well in our car compared to the instructors... bit odd since they are practically identical.  it must be the wife sitting next to me that makes me worse ;)

Get her to sit in the back, it's where they belong!

thanks everyone!

How many months of lessons does it take the average person to pass?

apparently the average is 40 hours of lessons with an instructor and 20 with a parent/other half.  tbh i would ignore averages

I took a lot more than that - but i did not progress at all when i was teaching and stressed out all the time... once i could relax more things started happening faster
