You could report them to the Driver and Vehicle Standards Agency (DVSA).

Oh, that's stupid beyond belief. How could one driving instructor think it's a good idea to intimidate a student with another instructor. That sort of behaviour needs stamping on and she should be taken of the road for a period of time, enough for her to reflect on her gross stupidity.

 

Hope you managed to calm down a bit Jen. Hopefully that is the last you see of her and your future lesson go smooth as silk.

 

If your driving instructor had anything about him, he would have  got out, walked back to the offending instructor , grabbed her by the throat and nutted her.

 

But that's just me being in a bad mood.

 

In the real world, I'd suggest you report  them like El Loro said.

Good grief Jen ....that's awful What a moron If you had been a nervous novice it couLD have really spooked you ! Defo take El Loro advice and report him/her !!!

You are right to report the idiot, Jen, but your instructor ought to be reporting him/her too!

Yes! Especially as he knows she has a had reputation. Driving Instructors intimidating other drivers - the mind boggles  

I think she is going to Yogi 

We were both effing and jeffing to each other tbh!  

I'm just happy it was at the end of my lesson as i would have been livid for the whole hour had it been at the start!

 You did well to keep so calm Jen. She sounds like a proper loon 

One thing to realise, despite it all, look how you continued to cope under the pressure..!    You'll make a good driver, Jen  

 

(I agree with the others, track her down and dob her in)

Exactly what Cosi said.

 

 

The other instructor was way way out of order, but once you're out there on your own, you'll encounter pricks like that regularly. But you learn to spot them, it's the flibberty gibbert sudden manoeuvres without warning sods you've got to look for, and half the time they're so 'la la la la laaaa' in their own world they don't even realise what they've done.

 

Definitely complain, and make sure your instructor does too. And most importantly, stick at it. The freedom of a driving license is brilliant.

  Cinds.

 

And don't forget the OAP's - they're a law unto themselves  

 

 

shame your instructor didn't whip her mobile out and record her Jen, she would have probably lost her her job and if she's doing this deliberately to learner drivers she deserves to  

Oh god don't. Father Cinds is a retired police driving instructor & he is now that OAP driver, scares me when he goes off driving in his teeny car. 

 

They mount pavements here, smash into shop fronts, park as if they're manoeuvring a JCB and ignore traffic lights.  It's like the Bronx with a blue rinse.

Jeepers Jen! That's road rage at it's worst!   Like you say, good job it was at the end and that you're ok.

 

I agree with everyone else too. She needs to be driven off the road herself 

Thankfully Arthur hasn't gone down the blue rinse route yet, but he's a scary old sod in the car now. 

She's learning to drive in Nottingham in it blud, what do you expect

Hahaha Aimee.  I'm definitely going to talk to my instructor about us both putting in a complaint... I found her web page with mobile number this afternoon and nearly rang her to tell her she's a numpty.. But managed to stop myself

El loro's advice to report the person seems the best.  That's appalling behaviour from someone who's supposed to be professional in their driving standards.

My own personal response in such situation ... and it works well for me (so long as it is safe to do so)

Simply take your foot off the accelerator and allow your car to grind to a halt.

Passive yet remarkably effective.
