DriveSkills is the trading name of Paul Troke DSA ADI (car). Paul has traded as an Approved Driving Instructor since 2005. The strap-line for DriveSkills is "Learn safe driving for life", which sums up Paul's approach to the business of teaching people to drive. Using the most up-to-date coaching techniques, DriveSkills pupils learn that driving is much more that the practical skills of moving the car around our roads safely. How drivers think, how their emotions impact on the decisions they make, will affect the safety of their driving - particularly when new drivers have just passed their test and are driving alone. One on five new drivers have a crash within the first few months of driving. Coaching and the revolutionary 21LDS are applied by DriveSkills to reduce this frightening statistic, and ensure a good pass rate too!
