Aims and objectives

Aim: To pass my driving test

Objectives:

To save sufficient money to pay for at least ten driving lessons

To locate, and enrol with, a driving instructor in my locality who has a reasonable success rate and a pleasant temperament

To undertake driving instruction at weekly intervals with the above instructor until I am thought ready to take my test

To apply for a date for my driving test when advised by my instructor

To persuade a friend to take me out for additional practice sessions prior to my test date

To arrive punctually on the test date and undertake my driving test with no major errors

[More recent testees would also need to plan for learning and sitting the written part of the driving test!]
