A good driving instructor in Dartmouth, NS?
I have my road test booked for September 21st, to convert my UK license.
Need to get hold of a vehicle to sit the test in, and I also want an hour or two with an instructor. I hear the test is easy, but I'm not the most confident driver so some time beforehand would be useful.
Can anyone make a recommendation?

I was recently recommended to:
Robie, Right Lane

Apparently he has worked a lot with immigrants transferring licenses from other countries.

I called Robie 'Right Lane' the other day, his wife said he's extremely booked up & gave me the number of another instructor - Gary Steed of 'Changing Lanes' (902) 209-1131 or 422-0846 who I had a good lesson with yesterday.

I have to put a good word in for Robie....
What a great experience! He was great fun and 100% professional. He taught me the best trick I've ever learned for reverse parking-----that even after many years of driving in the UK, nobody had informed me!
Highly reccommend him to anyone wanting to either get their Canadian licence from a UK one, or for someone who has no experience.
I can fully understand why he is over-booked!
