Driving lessons history of the Sat-Nav.

 I believe that the Sat-Nav when used correctly is a wonderful aid to road safety.

I can give you a driving lesson on how to use one correctly.

 

Where on earth?

A history of the Sat-nav

The first satellite navigation system was called Transit and established by the US military in the 60s'.
The idea of offering sat-nav for drivers was first floated in the mid-80s'. A system called Homer, based around a modified IBM computer with a screen built into a car's glovebox, was unveiled at a German trade fair in 1985.
There is debate about which car brand had the first sat-nav for its owners. The American-market 1990 Honda Legend was certainly one of the first, using gyroscopes and accelerometers to work out position.
The first portable devices arrived in shops in 1991, and moving maps started two years later.
The sat-nav business exploded in 1994 when America opened up its military Global Positioning System (GPS) of 32 satellites for commercial licensing. US car brand Oldsmobile was the first to launch a GPS system for vehicles, GuideStar, in 1995.
Maps first appeared on mobile phones in 1998 and spoken route guidance was launched in 2001. Devices aimed specifically at motorcyclists arrived in 2006.

Leanne gave me this review!

Having been recommended to Melvin from a friend after having experienced 3 previous driving instructors, I found Melvin really easy to talk to and he was exceptional at putting me at ease when my nerves got the better of me. His teaching style is excellent, explaining to you in an easy format where you have gone wrong and how to correct it for your driving test. Today I passed my driving test and could not be happier! I could not have passed without Melvin and his exceptional
attitude and belief in me! Thank you so much!

Mr Beesley passes driving test with only four driving faults.

Mr Beesley passes his driving test in Kettering UK with only four minor driving faults. Mr Beesley had his driving lessons in Kettering as this was his nearest driving test centre and he needed his driving licence  as soon as possible.

Review fromMr Beesley
This guy was simply an amazing instructor and very funny! I was always excited to be having a lesson with him. I was quite a bumbly driver when it came to roudabouts and exams but this guy got me through them all and I know for sure it would of took me a lot longer if he didnt have my back the way he did. Well worth the money but then you cant put a price on something like this, when it can change your life so much. This guy has a back up plan for just about anything that you have trouble remembering as well!!! great guy will miss chatting and hopefully will keep in touch :).

The Official Highway Code: signals

The Official Highway Code: signals

Why should you pay to use a basket?


Putting the cart before the horse – power

Hamilton 2-20130222-00145 (1)Busy. That word describes many people within our society these days. We often have so many things to do that we’re often running late. Sometimes, we may not be as late as we think we are or the things we do may not take as long as we think they do. If that’s the case, we really need to change how we do things that may affect us or other drivers.
While I was recently at a shopping area, I noticed many shopping carts left sitting throughout the entire parking lot. Those that used those carts decided to leave them behind where their vehicles were parked after they were finished with them. Why wouldn’t hey put them away in the cart area? Was it too much trouble for them? Were they lazy? Were they running late? I even saw a shopping cart left beside the sectioned off cart area. Why couldn’t they place the cart into the cart area? Was it really going to take that much extra time?
Here’s the problem with leaving the carts throughout the parking lot; they can roll and hit into the sides of parked vehicles. We all know how annoyed we get when we find any type of dents and dings on our vehicle. By placing the carts where they belong, you’re actually helping your fellow drivers to help avoid those annoying dings.
The added problem happens if the shopping cart ends up behind a vehicle, below the window line of the minivan or SUV. If the driver in that vehicle looks out of the rear window they may not see the shopping cart. Walking around your vehicle prior to entering it is always a good idea regardless of where you are as it allows you to spot any problems before entering your vehicle. However, most drivers won’t do that so if you leave a shopping cart in the parking area, it adds to the risk of someone hitting it.
I was retraining a licensed driver who was under the belief that he could see most things around his vehicle because he was very tall and sat high in his minivan. To show him this isn’t the case, I walked away from the vehicle on all four sides with him in the driver’s seat and dropped pylons when he saw my feet. When he got out of the vehicle to see the space he was shocked to see it so large. I then asked him to get back into the driver’s seat and look out the rear window again. This time, I bent over at the rear hatch as if I was tying my shoe and he couldn’t see me. This became a real eye opener for this driver.
So there’s really two issues about those wandering shopping carts; leaving them behind other vehicles may cause those drivers to hit them and damage their vehicle and if someone leaves them behind your parked vehicle, you could hit them. Oh, and shopping carts are far less important than noticing people so maybe doing a walk around is a good idea for all drivers. Maybe some of those drivers never thought about the consequences of their laziness or being in a hurry. Or perhaps they were putting the cart before the horse-power.
