Postponement of Lessons by ROUF Driving School

Lessons might sometimes need to be postponed at short notice due to illness, mechanical breakdown or some other emergency or unforeseen occurrence, a mutually agreeable alternative appointment will be made.

Every effort will be made to notify the client of the postponement as soon as practicable, however in some circumstances it may be difficult to notify the client in advance of their appointment time.

In all other circumstances ROUF Driving School will endeavour to keep all appointments, however when it is necessary to alter an appointment a minimum of 48 hours notice will be given.

Lessons in Clients Own Car

All driving lessons are normally conducted in the driving school cars. On rare occasions tuition may be given in the clients own car, this will only be done if the individual driving instructor is willing to do so, and they may require an initial driving assessment in the dual controlled driving school car before doing so:

• The clients car must be legally roadworthy, taxed, insured and mot'd (when necessary)
• The clients car must be insured for the use of the driving instructor to give professional driving tuition, and for the driving instructor to drive, this must be confirmed in writing by the clients insurance company .
• The use of the clients car is entirely at the clients own risk, and neither the driving instructor nor ROUF Driving School will be held liable for any damage or accident howsoever caused.

There will be no alteration in fees payable in view of the increased risk and responsibility of giving tuition in a non-dual controlled vehicle
