Instructing pupil and drives down a one way street the wrong way.

They both missed two signs ie blue board with white left arrow and further down the no entry sign.

The instructor has been reported.

Wow, I bet you feel really smug because obviously you have never made a mistake at any point in your life.

He probably wondered why they were all coming back.

Presumably the instructor works locally and knows his patch... confused

Really don't see the point of this thread.

Has PH got to the stage that we need a new thread for every transgression?

To be fair driving instructors generally patrol a certain area.
So their local knowledge should be above average.
They clearly weren't paying attention.
When you should be paying extra attention!

I personally wouldn't report it or write on PH about it but I hope the instructor takes a serious lesson from this (and I am not saying I want him to be banned from teaching).

Reminds me of Ed. Bad things happened to Ed all the time - he was just one of those unlucky persons.

He drove into a one way road in error, realised his error and turned around. Caught the attention of plod,, who breathalyzed him and discovered that the morning after was a real thing.. He kept his job, but his penance was his dad driving him around on site visits for the next 12/24 months. Not sure the penance was worth keeping the job for myself!

Professional misconduct of the most outrageous kind.

I am truly outraged and will make sure the Daily Fail passes this on to its readers.

Two songs come to mind "the Cherokees were after me " & "No wheels on my wagon" .
But ,locally I live near a driving test centre, and it's one of the few places in the town, where there's no "I'm taking my right of way ,whether it's mine or not". Personally, I look out for learners and do unto them as I'd like done to me ,as a learner. show them courtesy and how courtesy makes life easier for all.

When I was a kid my neighbour told me of the time he was stopped by a policeman on a one way street.
“Do you know, sir, that you are driving down a one way street?”
“Yes, officer, I do. You’re going the wrong way.”
