The best money you would ever spend would be on an advanced driver training course IMO.
It teaches the right 'attitude' rather than the "I know all" that many younger drivers (including me many moons ago) seem to have.
It was the best thing I ever did for my son - it took the edge off his 'youthfulness' as far as driving goes and probably saved his life!
The opening address by the advanced instructor was:
"What is probably the ONLY thing you are likely to do every day that can KILL YOU? - go driving!"
This has stayed with me for many years now.......
Yes Mike I'd planned on sending him to a course for advanced driving should I do it for his 17th or 18th? we had an issue at a two laned roundabout yesterday I sort of panicked and i ended up saying go no stop now go no stop and I stressed him out I think we sat there for 10 minutes lol the problem was cars where going in the inside lane and he couldn't see and that made him ask me if it was safe to go, its so much harder with no peddles I feel helpless and sort of unsafe.
