The Course
Our Trailer training & Towing course comprises:-
A full day of instruction on the first day.

We offer a 2 day training course for all students 17+ who hold a Full Driving Licence (Category B) and wish to obtain the licence allowing them to tow a trailer (Category B+E).

A one-to-one form of tuition, or 2 students together. The two day course includes the B+E Test on the afternoon of the second day. We rarely, if ever, take more than 2 students on a course at any one time.

The two training days are run with a break of either 3-7days or back to back, to allow students time to practice the exercises they learnt on the first day, in readiness for the second day of training. We have found that this method of training can make the difference between those who pass first time, and those who fail. If there is a time limit for students to qualify, they may opt for 'back to back' training.

We cover all aspects of the B+E Test, these include:-
  1. Driving on the public highway, including dual carriageways and motorways where available.
  2. Trailer reversing
  3. Uncoupling and recoupling
  4. The braking exercise
On Road - We will bring you back up to Driving Test standard and encourage you to lose all the bad habits you may have accumulated; such as one-handed steering and resting a hand on the gear stick. The on road training will cover trailer-handling, observations, road positioning, planning and awareness, signalling, use of controls, mirrors, and speed.

Off Road - During training, we will take you to the off-road area where we will run through the exercises and assist you in becoming confident and competent. We will cover:-

Reversing - accuracy, control, and all-round observation for a snake reverse into a bay park.

Braking - controlled stop at 20mph through coned area.

Uncoupling and Recoupling - release trailer from vehicle, move forward and park alongside, before re-attaching trailer as a new and unfamiliar trailer. Accuracy, control and safety being of prime importance.

In fact, we provide you with everything you will need to accomplish your qualification.
  • Coverage of the on road and off road syllabus for the Test.
  • The everyday use of trailers and trailer awareness.
  • Full use of a Vauxhall Frontera.
  • A Box Trailer.
  • We provide you with insurance throughout training and during the Test.
  • We provide all the fuel you will use during training, and also on the Test.
  • After the first day's training, students are given an information booklet designed to help them .
