Instructor Change or Cancellation of Lesson

Your driving instructor will do everything possible to ensure that your driving lessons start and finish on time. Should your driving instructor be running behind schedule, you will be notified. If the instructor is late for a lesson, they’ll make a concerted effort to extend the lesson by the time due or credit the time owing to the student’s next driving lesson.

We reserve the right to cancel, postpone or change lesson lengths and start/finish times under certain circumstances (e.g. your driving instructor is sick, dangerous weather conditions, etc). Avon Driving School will do everything in its power to avoid having to do so. In the event of postponement; any fees paid will be carried forward to the next driving lesson or refunded upon your request.

The driving instructor reserves the right to cancel a lesson at short notice or at any time during the lesson if he or she suspects that the student is under the influence of alcohol or drugs, any other condition that would cause the student’s driving to be dangerous or illegal or does not follow the driving instructor’s instructions. In such circumstances, the lesson fee is still payable.

Driver Training Location

All driving lessons will commence and finish at the same location unless an alternative drop off address has been agreed upon when the original lesson booking was made.

Your instructor will determine suitable routes and locations for practical lessons that will ensure the safety of the student, instructor and the general public. This means that the instructor may need to drive the customer to and from suitable streets and locations. On these occasions, this will still form part of the driving lesson duration.

Training Vehicles

Driver training vehicles provided by our contracted instructors are roadworthy, licensed with Department of Transport, and fitted with dual controls.

Our instructors make every effort to ensure that the vehicle supplied for driving tests are fully roadworthy and comply with all the legal requirements at all times, but cannot be held responsible for vehicle failure that occurs on the day prior, the day of and during the driving test and we are not liable for any consequential loss.

If you do not wish to have your photo published in this manner, please let your instructor know after your test.

We reserve the right to change any of the above conditions when necessary. Your continued use of our services will signify your acceptance of any adjustment to these terms. These terms and conditions form part of the agreement between you as a client and your instructor as an independent contractor for Avon Driving School.
