Just a thought
Discussion
What about if..
The police are given powers to stop drivers they consider are driving in a manner which is, thought to be, unsafe or inconsiderate to other road users.
They present a summons that requires the offender to be evaluated by a driving instructor. If the instructor determines the offender to be lacking in general road skills, they can recommend that they take a driving improvement course. This could be one lesson or more accordingly. I'm not talking about driving-test standards here, just sensible controllable driving.
Once the offender has reached a level of driving skill, considered acceptable to modern road safety standards, the original summons is then signed off by the instructor and submitted to the police by the offender within, 3-6 months or so.
This could be linked to scamera offences, thus no points would be added to license, no fines, as the cost of the evaluation would be penalty enough. But, not sure about this bit though.
End result....Good drivers would only pay £30.00 or whatever the hourly rate for an instructor is. Bad drivers would be educated and penalised as they would require more training. Best of all the f
g councils get nought.
Needs some work I know but just maybe...
Okay: I'll get me coat and

Yes, I can see some merit in that, but I would go further and suggest that an advanced police driver does the assessment and tuition. I am not sure that normal driving instructors would necessarily bring about a sufficient level of improvement.
In my view we need a real push to get more people aspiring to become truly advanced drivers, and then there has to be some reward for them when they reach that standard.
Take care folks.
