Richard Fanders

He is the sole driving instructor of his driving school Conquer Driving based in Colchester, Essex in England.

He excels in teaching his learners how to drive from long-term experience.

He has mastered the best methods of teaching people to drive in both manual and automatic cars.

Videos below.

Driving Instructors

When instructors are excessively impatient, they considerably increase the likelihood of learners failing their tests due to the unnecessary high stress they put learners through that distracts their concentration due to unruly attitude instructors.

Likewise if an instructor castigates a driver for failing their test.

In contrast, Richard’s motto is to help learner drivers alleviate their anxieties and progress them through training that makes learners Enjoy their lessons and Increase their chances of passing their test the first time.

With instructors like Richard, you know that you’re in good hands with a professional who puts Learners first, which is why having an instructor who is Sincerely patient and caring is Essential, as every learner will then look forward to each lesson they undertake.

Driver Safety

Richard is also well versed in teaching Safety –

Modern gadgets are invaluable tools, but where Driving is concerned, one that Richard warns drivers to be extra careful with is Self-Cancelling signals, in which he advises drivers to use as a fallback option, instead of a luxury to rely on, due to the potential dangers such gadgets can create.

Also, he strongly advises drivers to not stay in to the left for too long as it puts people at risk when trying to pass by obstructions including parked cars.

The positioning of the driver’s seat and the internal mirror & external wing mirrors, the gas, brake and clutch controls are some of the many important aspects of a car to take close notice of for best possible, safest driving.

The five videos that I’m including below are only a small fraction of the many videos that Richard uploads to his video channel “Conquer Driving”, but this will give you a good idea of some of the main techniques that are required to make the most out of driving, whether you use a Manual car or an Automatic car.

Undertaking vs Overtaking

Richard has advised further details about the pros and cons of undertaking, and which aspects are legal, and which are illegal, and how fines or prison sentences are imposed, depending on the seriousness of the situations in question.

Undertaking UK Law

Left Hand Side or Right Hand Side

Roads vary per country as to whether drivers on the left or the right.

In the UK it’s on the left hand side, but the principal is the same about careful driving and the techniques and etiquette of the best ways to drive.

Videos of Richard in Action

The ideal driving position - setting the seat, steering wheel and mirrors

One of my friends passed her driving test, first time in January whose driving instructor was an equivalent of Richard – he was strict, but fair and in no way condescending to her.
