Do ADIs focus much attention on teaching making progress (driving at the speed limit if safe to do so)? In my vast experience of being driven by ADIs (all two of them - Learner ADIs, not AD ADIs), neither made what I would consider to be adequate progress - 45/50 in an NSL for example.
I think the DSA test includes a bit on making adequate progress - both ADIs thought 50 in a 60 was adequate.

In answer to your first question, a big YES!

In my instruction car, if the traffic is doing 60, I encourage them to do that if the road conditions are favourable and it is safe to do so in THEIR opinion (I've worked on that opinion...

Why should they have had blues on?
I don't know. Aren't they supposed to drive like the rest of us mignons unless they're on a shout? (ie, within the Law). On one occasion, they didn't appear to be in a 'hurry' they ended up outside a bakers (someone was late for shift perhaps)
