Learner Permit Training
Road law can be a confusing subject, especially for people with a learning difficulty. At Specialised Driver Training, we have developed a training method that can help prospective learners to understand road law by presenting the information in an easy-to-understand format either individually or in small groups.
If you would like to assess a client's capacity to drive before they have a learner permit, we have also developed a short pre-learner course. This hands-on program is conducted at a safe, off-road location and enables an OT to safely and legally client's potential to drive before obtaining their learner permit. Please contact our team to arrange a booking.
