On Public Roads
Two hours of supervised training, in radio contact & riding on public roads.
For the public road training all students wear a short range radio receiver and can therefore receive guidance, instruction, encouragement and warning of possible dangers from the instructor. Your safety on the roads is our highest priority.
Certification
When you have satisfactorily completed all five elements you will be issued with a Certificate of Completion of Training (DL196). This is a legal document which serves to validate the relevant entitlements on the driving licence.
Details of all aspects of the legislation, and guidance on the options available can be found on the DSA website.
