I'm a good driver

Even as a good driver, you can't, unfortunately, escape the ageing affect. This can cause very gradual and subtle changes to the way you cope with safe driving. Awareness of these changes is the key to keeping safe into older age.

I lack a little confidence

There are various reasons why drivers lack a little confidence, ranging from a recent collision to not having driven for many months. You may even have had a passenger with strong 'back seat driver' opinions! Whatever the reason, we can help.

Am I still safe to drive?

As age goes on, we all have to stop driving at some point. But the process leading up to that can be difficult unless handled in a sensitive way.

We specialise in advising those who are becoming less safe, with the aim of helping people compensate for their concerns and to recognise when it is time to hang up the car keys.

Graham Mylward
Senior Consultant at DriveTalk Consultancy

If you live in the Bournemouth, Poole or Christchurch area I would be happy to arrange some refresher driver training, advanced driver training or a driving assessment.

I can also give a fair and balanced opinion of your driving risk if your family or your doctor are worried about you driving.

What's available?

Driver assessment

From an agreed meeting place such as your home, and in your own vehicle, this will point out and advise any habits you may have developed which increase your risk of collision.

You need to allow 1.5 hours for this and you will receive a risk assessment report.

Cost £60.00

Refresher Training

This is aimed at improving a particular part of your driving such as roundabouts, slip roads, parking etc.

It will be in your own vehicle from a mutually agreed meeting point.

Minimum duration is 1.5 hours.

Cost £40.00 per hour

Advanced Driver Training

Have you ever thought about taking an advanced test? Or maybe you just want to learn some 'advanced' techniques. This training is in your own vehicle from a mutually agreeable meeting place and it will make use of techniques shown in the police driving handbook 'Roadcraft'. Minimum session duration is 1.5 hours.
