There is no such thing as a typical client. A passion for driving seems to be something that spans all ages, backgrounds and walks of life. The only other common denominators are a desire to improve their skills behind the wheel and the will to invest a little time doing so.
You will learn to recognise The Limit.
Many drivers see The Limit as a precipice. A deep crevasse shrouded in thick fog, never to be approached, lest they be drawn in and lost. At Driving Development, we will teach you how to recognise that you are approaching The Limit.
We will show you the signposts on the road to the edge.
We will teach you how to see the precipice, tiptoe up to the edge, and step
back.
A little later, you will recognise that what looked like a precipice was in fact only a gentle slope, and that it can be great fun dangling your feet.

People come to improve and learn, but also to have fun.
Don Palmer's skill is in determining the best and quickest way to achieve a specific improvement for each individual. One client may simply wish to feel more confident at speed. Another might have been involved in an accident where they lost control of the vehicle. Some are racing drivers looking to find that elusive “tenth tenth” in order to crush the competition.
Though each comes to us with a different desire, we aim to bring out the best in all of them.
Many courses offer high quality instruction.
Instruction is simply telling people what to do.
Don Palmer offers high quality coaching.
Coaching is helping people to discover the answers for themselves. Through
being coached, the client has created performance improvements himself;
he “owns” the change, which becomes integrated into his driving.
You can tell a horse to drink a thousand times, but all you really need to do is help him realise he’s thirsty.
Does that make any sense at all? We hope so…
