Is safety your number one priority?

Are you finding your balance sheets are getting blurred and you are losing control of your costs?  Are you paying the price for poor safety standards?

Late cancellations are annoying.  Driving test fails are disappointing. Underselling driving lessons is foolish.  But the safety of you, your pupil and the public is number one priority in our line of work. Everything else is small fry in comparison.

A typical comment we all hear in the industry is how these accidents are 'unavoidable'; literally, just that, an accident, and 'accidents will happen'. This myth is, of course, utter nonsense.

If you are finding that you (and your pupils) are having accidents, then it is a sign of inadequate risk assessment.  The responsibility for safety ultimately rests with you the driving instructor.  While it is a skill and goal to help develop that ownership of safety in our pupils, it is a fact that pupils do not NEED to have an accident to learn about safety while they are paying us for our service.

Do get in touch if you feel that this aspect of your work is getting out of control.  My driving school (est. 2009) has not suffered one single accident.  Despite my pupils covering over 100,000 miles in the last three years, it is just untrue to consider a loss of safety as an "occupational hazard".
