Report
I have recently moved to UK and was allowed to drive car upto 1 year on my international driving license. So I have a mandatory to clear driving exams within a year's time. Unfortunately, I cannot start this process until I complete 185 days in this country and rest of 6 months is too short to close the entire process (written & practice exams). I approached Gautam to help me on practice test in 11th month. I have been driving from last 15+ years and all I needed was to unlearn the bad things and he was amazing in coaching me on the same. I strongly recommend him & Driving Innovation center. Sriram
