DVSA is changing how people can swap driving tests from 1 October, removing the need for both learners to be available at the same time.

PASSED AT HIS FIRST ATTEMPT!

Zero faults, a clean sheet for Ollie who after having lessons with Mark and driving with his parents passed at the first time of asking!

He’s previously driven in America, so has been getting used to a manual gearbox and loads of roundabouts here.

A great result, and the perfect start to his week off work!

PASS!

Behind the pass certificate is an elated Bethan from Hilton, who after having lessons with Mark passed her test in Burton today with just 3 driver faults… … that was even after she kept calling the examiner Pete (he’s called Paul)!

Congratulations Bethan, Mark will miss the abuse you’ve been giving him on a weekly basis!

PASSED AT HIS FIRST ATTEMPT!

What a result for Zak from Hilton today.

He had lessons with Mark, and has worked extremely hard throughout the process to achieve his driving licence, gaining just two driver faults on his test.

He couldn’t quite believe he passed at the first time of asking. When told he said “I never pass anything first time!”

Well now he does.

Zak has chipped away week by week, making steady progress and all his hard work and sheer determination has paid off. He’s faced various challenges on the journey, but has always had a positive mindset and pushed forward every lesson.

Well done Zak, we’ve been working together for a while, but now it’s time for you to fly the nest (or drive it)!

Hugely proud of you today!

PASSED AT HER FIRST ATTEMPT!

Excellent start to the summer break for Rosalie who passed her test at the first time of asking this morning in Burton after having lessons with Mark.

She decided not to tell anyone that her test was today - not even her parents!

The secrecy paid off and came back with a great result, just two driver faults!

👏 👏 👏

A fantastic achievement and perfectly timed for a very precious passenger who will be arriving soon as she has a baby on the way! 👶

Congratulations from Dave and the whole team at Mint!

PASSED AT HIS FIRST ATTEMPT!

The perfect stat to the week for Luca.

He didn’t let the nerves get the better of him, and a confident drive brought a fantastic result with a strong pass on the roads of Burton today!

A great result, add to that a new job he started last week - it’s looking like a great summer for him!

PASSED AT HIS FIRST ATTEMPT!

Great drive around Burton today for Harry - the pass certificate proves it!

He had lessons with Mark, and did several hours in his own car in order to get the result today.

He was maybe a little nervous, which showed when the examiner asked him if he lives at the address on his licence….he wasn’t sure 😂🤦‍♂️

Greet work Harry - have a great time playing at Y-Not Festival in a few weeks 🎸
