Defensive & Advanced Driving Courses

Drivers Domain UK.com provide advanced driver training for both private and corporate customers across the UK. The business was set up in 2003 and started life as a resource and information website for drivers looking to raise their driving standards. Business owner, Rob Morgan an advanced driver himself since the age of 17, quickly saw a gap in the market to offer competitively priced advanced driver training from a company that provides a personal service with a team that care.

Drivers Domain UK offers advanced driver training that is based on Roadcraft - and specifically looks at raising the standard of driving by addressing the specific needs and requirements of the driver. Each customer taking an advanced driving course has the opportunity to take a short test at the end, and also receives a full driving report from the tutor who trained them.

Institute of Advanced Motorists (the IAM)

The aims and objectives of the Institute of Advanced Motorists (the IAM) are very simple:-

To improve the standard of driving (and riding) on the UK roads.
The Advancement of Road Safety.
The Administration of an Advanced Test.

Those aims were set in the late 1950s and are still relevant today. Too many people are being killed or seriously injured on our roads each and every year and it is well known that the majority of accidents are caused by Driver Error. Educate the driver into a better way of driving and the accident rate will fall - it's drivers that cause accidents, not cars. While educating drivers is not explicity one of the IAMs objectives, that is what we try to do (and do the best) because that meets all the other objectives.

DIAmond Advanced Motorists

The DIAmond Advanced Motorist Test is the only advanced test in the UK available to the general public that uses the Government's Driving Standards Agency's test marking system.

The current L-test allows candidates to make up to 15 minor driving faults over a route which is often shorter than six miles, and takes 40 minutes or less. The Diamond Advanced Test allows a maximum of six minor faults in an hour's driving over a wide variety of road types and conditions.

Candidates are expected to demonstrate progressive driving skills throughout, at a much higher level of competence than the L-test. Training includes driving at night, on motorways and in adverse weather conditions, and your instructor will be asked to confirm the required level of experience in these areas before you take the Advanced Test.
