5-day Intensive Fast Track Course to Driving Success

Intensive driving courses are becoming more popular as more of us find we have less time to devote to learning to drive. The concept of being able to simply take a week off work, stay over somewhere in a hotel and pay a modest sum of money to be taught to drive (and pass your test) is always going to appeal. But where the existing fast-track providers – Go! Driving, SurePass and several others – take the week to help you pass your practical test, there are some new kids on the block with a whole different approach – helping you pass the practical and theory tests in just 5 days.

Husband-and-wife team Richard and Jo Minkler are behind the company 5DAY, founded in 2002, and are the only company to offer the full driving package – theory and practical tests taken and passed – within the space of one week.

It’s a sensible idea: everything you learn for your theory test is relevant for when you’re driving, and if you’re getting hands-on experience at the same time, the theory facts are going to stick in your memory.

Until now, 5DAY has operated in the Norwich area, and has gradually grown to incorporate 22 ADIs (approved driving instructors) who help over 1,000 people each year to pass their tests with ease. But compared to the 1.6 million people who take their tests each year, 5DAY is still small-fry.

Which is why, recently, they’ve decided to expand their company to a national level, bringing affordable and useful driving opportunities to young people around the country. 5DAY are looking to recruit a significant number of new franchise owners to take on the task of bringing 5DAY success to the UK as a whole – because as everyone knows, if you’ve got an idea that works, don’t keep it to yourself.

So if you’re looking to learn to drive, and don’t want to wait 6 months to do it, then shimmy over to the 5DAY website www.5day.co.uk and check out the scheme.
