When you head towards Forfar or Dundee, focus on merging safely onto A roads and adjusting to higher speeds. Watch for agricultural vehicles and tight bends near river crossings. Try a mock run up to Forfar so you know the route and any busy junctions before your test.

Look for recent pupil feedback and a clear lesson plan that includes rural and A road work. Be ready to discuss block bookings and cancellation policies.
