Youngsters of age nine are navigating the renowned Top Gear test track, employing affordably-priced vehicles.
In an exciting development, young drivers aged 9-17 have the chance to experience the thrill of driving on the famous Top Gear test track at Dundsfold Aerodrome in Surrey, UK. The opportunity is part of the Young Driver programme, a long-term training initiative designed to ensure that young drivers have a solid understanding of driving before they hit the roads.
The sessions, which are a source of surprise for many parents, are focused on calm control rather than speed. The cars used in the event are dual-control Suzuki Swift, a close relation to the Suzuki Liana, which was the first Reasonably Priced Car on Top Gear.
The programme aims to instil good driving habits in the students, with driving lessons designed to be enjoyable and boost the confidence of teenagers and pre-teens. In fact, many parents are amazed when their children are able to reverse park at the end of the first lesson.
Last month, some students even visited the track and met one of the actual Lianas used in the Top Gear show from 2002-06. The Young Driver network now includes over 80 sites across the country, providing young people with the opportunity to drive on a famous television track.
Research suggests that this approach leads to the creation of safer drivers, as well as safer pedestrians and cyclists. The driving school's sessions aim to be a memorable and exciting experience for young people, making learning to drive an unforgettable journey.
It's important to note that the students will not be driving at Stig-like speeds. The focus is on learning the fundamentals of driving in a controlled and safe environment. This unique programme offers a fantastic opportunity for young people to gain valuable driving experience while having fun.
Whether a beginner or with prior experience, Young Driver offers various driving activities to suit all levels. So, if you're a young driver looking for an exciting and educational driving experience, look no further than the Young Driver programme at Dundsfold Aerodrome in Surrey, UK.
