About Drivers Domain UK

Written by the company

Drivers Domain UK initially started in 2003 as an online portal for motorists in the UK, where they could shop for motor insurance, perform data checks on their cars, and search for local driver trainers in their area.

In more recent years we had the idea of offering easy to arrange, high quality, bespoke driver training to both business and private clients. We identified a gap in the market. There was a growing demand for advanced/defensive driver training. But as it stood, it wasn’t that easy to conveniently book bespoke driver training online.

Why was driver training so slow to move with the times?

This was the question we asked ourselves. This is what drove us to build our online platform, which made it easy for both business and private clients to select a bespoke driving course or courses,  decide the key focal elements of the course they want, select ideal dates and locations and then finalise the booking online.

We’ve helped people who have lost their confidence, we’ve helped people who’ve needed help getting back behind the wheel after a serious RTC, we’ve helped stressed fleet managers who need 100+ of their drivers trained, we’ve helped parents deal with their teenager who drives too fast.

The list goes on.

Highly recommend. Chris was a patience and very informative instructor who gave me lots of helpful tips, put me at ease and gave me the confidence to drive a transporter van at the end of my session.

INNOVATION GROUP

My name is Alex and I work for a company called INNOVATION GROUP and i had advanced training set up by the company. I had the pleasure of dealing with Chris Lamport, who was extremely helpful throughout the day and gave me lots of pointers in which to improve my skills and even with being very professional, Chris also made sure to make me comfortable and had great banter which is important as this helps with confidence. I would definitely recommend. 5☆ course.

A great day that helped me become a better driver

As I am about to celebrate my 70th birthday and have been driving for over 50 years ago, I felt it made sense to have someone critically review my driving technique. I booked one of Drivers Domain bespoke experienced driver refresher courses. I was absolutely delighted with the entire day and working with Duncan was a real delight. I found the whole day was of real benefit. Duncan identified one primary area for improvement. I had been taught to stop at roundabouts. With Duncan's expert coaching/mentoring we were able to bring about a significant improvement in that area. The day was geared to my specific needs rather than a generic programme. The day was excellent value for money as well as being highly enjoyable. I would suggest that all drivers would benefit from this type of course. A really great day, which has helped me become a better driver.

A very positive experience

I booked the sessions as I hadn't driven for over ten years and was nervous about resuming. I am so grateful to Drivers Domain, and Fatima in particular, for all the help I received. I now feel much more confident and able to deal with the challenges of everyday driving both on busy roads and country lanes.
Fatima's patience and advice are invaluable.
I wholeheartedly recommend Drivers Domain UK.

Hadn’t driven in 20 years since passing my test so was obviously quite apprehensive about driving again. Booked in 2 half day sessions with Chris Lamport who was brilliant! From the initial phone call chat I immediately felt comfortable with him. His approach and style helped me become very calm behind the wheel so that i was able to take in his instructions and tips - Highly recommend for those people out there in similar situations to me. Thanks Chris!

Very helpful - a big improvement in confidence

I had three half day sessions of driving with Fatima.
I found the sessions extremely helpful. I learnt to drive 30 years ago, but had barely driven for the past 20 and was very daunted to get back into driving again. I was initially very nervous but Fatima was really helpful and reassuring and gave me lots of practical tips and built up my confidence. I am now comfortable driving on local roads and developing more confidence on faster roads and motorways. I can even park now and I never thought that would happen!

Money well spent.

David Haye did exactly what I expected and hoped for. My biggest problem was confidence and he certainly improved that by 100%. He made me drive in various areas both country lane and dual carriage ways. Although we did not spend quite as much time on manoeuvres like parking and going backwards as I would have liked, I am sure I can practice that on my own and he was quite right when he said that it is a question of doing it often to become more proficient and more confident. It was money well spent, I feel much better about myself and about my driving ability.

Thank you Kevin

Thank you, Kevin, for a great driving experience. The driving techniques you taught me have really changed my style of driving and given me a new enthusiasm for what had become a chore.
I think a driver refresher course should be a requirement for anyone driving for a long time, as you don’t realise some of the habits you adopt.
The driver's report is so useful and encourages you on how to continue after the course. I would recommend both Kevin and Drivers Domain UK.

Got me back on the road

After not driving for about 7 years and not owning my own car for probably 17 years, I decided to buy a car and start driving again.
I was so incredibly anxious about driving, I wanted to do a comprehensive refresher and confidence building course.
I found drivers domain online and booked the full 5 sessions.
My instructor, Dan, was fab. He was professional, patient and reassured me throughout the entire process.
He pushed me out of my comfort zone and gave me the tools I needed to become a safe and competent driver.
I am now back on the road and I couldn’t be happier. My only regret is not doing it sooner.
Massive thank you to Dan and Drivers Domain!

Very informative and no test

I decided to book an advanced driving session (full day) to improve the quality of my driving following a speeding offence (with a possible court summons). There are some courses where you get training and a test but I preferred this style of course as it was very informative without the pressure of taking a test at the end, plus I received a full driving review report after the session.

My instructor, Chris Lamport was very experienced, knowledgable and helped me to feel more relaxed and to enjoy driving again.

The most worthwhile experience 10/10

I live in central London and was a terribly nervous driver - I wasn't able to even really sit in the driver's seat without feeling an impending panic attack set in, and there was no real reason for it. I decided to tackle the issue and through online research found Drivers Domain as they offered exactly I was looking for in their Driving Confidence Course. I booked a whole day course.
My instructor was Fatima - and what an amazing confidence building instructor she is. She made contact leading up to the session - making sure she understood what my issues and problem areas were and what I wanted to accomplish from the session. Fatima really really hears what you say, listens and works reactively to your individual needs - the whole experience felt entirely catered to exactly what my needs and requirements were - it is indeed a bespoke experience.
Fatima's calm demeanor is infectious and one cant help but feel reassured by her. She is patient and genuinely complimentary when you deserve it. She somehow was able, after 20 minutes of me driving, to articulate what it was that was holding me back and once I understood it I was able to approach driving differently and by the end of the days session we had driven on the M4, M40, London in rush hour, do big roundabouts, overtake, lane changes etc etc - for someone who was too scared to even start the car I cannot find words to describe how emotional and overwhelmed I felt at the end of the day.
Words don't do justice to what a brilliant teacher Fatima is, she has a special quality that instills you with confidence. She clearly has years of experience and you feel immediately in the safest and most reassuring of hands.
I would recommend a whole day for nervous drivers, the "before" and "after" is astounding. It is 100% worth the money, the feeling at the end of my day was priceless.

Great calm instructor who understood my driving confidence issues

The instructor was really calm and really helped me understand how to best merge with fast moving traffic- ie join motorways and other slip roads . This has hugely improved my confidence in long distance driving - thank you

Kevin is a great coach!

Kevin is a great coach!
I was quite nervous before starting the full day course. Overall I achieved what I set out to do. Kevin really helped put me at ease and helped me regain my confidence in driving to various destinations of work I need to get too. I had been avoiding these by getting public transport and taxi’s. But I am confident in driving all these routes by myself now with the help of Kevin. He is very professional and knows how to put one at ease and helps build confidence. During the course I got into a really difficult situation on a dual carriageway but with Kevin’s encouragement I got out of it and has boosted my confidence. I still have a bit more work to do but after today and Kevin’s advice an sure I will get there. I would highly recommend this course to others for those who need help with driving anxiety.

I completed 3 days of driving support from Fatima and she immediately came across as very calm, competent and overall a reassuring person sitting beside me. She gave me lots of encouragement and best of all, after my first session, she commented that I was a safe driver and she felt safe. I was dreading driving on a particular dual carriageway close to where I live, I had built up a real phobia getting on this stretch of road and she helped me to overcome my concerns. Also, I hadn't driven on a motorway for at least 16 years and again dreaded the thought. So much so, we were able to drive to Lancing, nr. Brighton, using motorway and dual carriageway, and again she complimented where necessary. I would recommend Fatima to anyone struggling with their anxiety, and my favourite saying is "face the fear and do it anyway"!! Thank you again Fatima.
