RoADAR Gold!!!

Discussion on Advanced and Defensive Driving.

Eeeek - I've just taken my RoADAR test and got gold!! Was a bit apprehensive beforehand but I thought it went ok - then the examiner said it was a fantastic drive n one of the best he's been on! :shock: (Dunno if someone put something in his coffee this morning or what :lol: ) He did mention I needed to "ease and squeeze" a bit more, and not let speed dominate (rather, vision needs to be the overriding concern) but a great result. Chuffed!!! Thanks Mr Chomondely-Warner (aka Nick) for helping me prepare. Still can't quite believe it!

Oh I dunno - it might be largely down to natural talent, aided by Mr C-W, of course. :D

Dunno about natural talent, tho' it's very kind of you to say so! Mr C-W certainly helped; especially when he gave me a demo drive in his Porsche - purely for educational purposes, of course.... :lol:
Onward and upward, looking forward to maintaining the standard now. Roll on the next AD-UK day!

Congratulations on achieving a Gold. Very well done.

Now you can look forward to more learning and not letting your standards slip, in order to repeat it in three years time ;)
