Transcript
00:00I'm 89 years old and I've been driving, advanced driving, since 1961. I passed my
00:11test in the army at 17 and then I did so well that they asked me to do a driver's
00:22instruction course and I took that and passed that and at 17 years old I was a
00:31driving instructor in the army. Every three years I've taken an advanced test
00:38and I've always passed at first and the Rosper test I also take for three every
00:47three years and I've got a lot of certificates. In fact all the certificates
00:55are for gold standard whereas you can pass at bronze, silver or gold and I
01:03always pass at gold. When was the last time you took your test? Last Saturday I
01:11took an advanced test with the IAM and I did so well that the advanced examiner
01:25recommended very strongly that I go for the master's driving and he recommended
01:34that I do it as soon as possible.
