Please read fully before booking lessons with Promotor Driving Academy.
- Our Instructors are ADIs (Approved Driving Instructors) qualified and fully licensed by the Road
Safety Authority (RSA) to give driving lessons. Our ADIs are professional people and will at all
times present themselves in a clean and tidy manner, show respect and consideration and will
be polite, calm and punctual.
- Our vehicles will at all times fit for purpose, fully insured, clean, roadworthy, with dual-controls
fitted as standard and with L-plates displayed correctly.
- Customer Vehicles. Customer vehicles must satisfy all legal requirements. They must be
roadworthy, taxed and insured as appropriate with valid discs displayed as per current legislation.
A valid NCT disc (if applicable) must also be displayed as per current legislation. L Plates/N Plates
must be displayed as appropriate. Customers must be insured to drive the vehicle used for their
lessons. Your instructor will carry out vehicle checks prior to commencement of lessons to ensure
legal compliance.
Lack of legal compliance will result is cancellation of the lesson with full costs to customer.
- Driving licence. Learners must hold a current valid learner permit or full licence and must present
it to the ADI in advance of each driving session. It is an offence to drive without a valid Licence or
Permit.
Failure to produce a valid L permit or a driver licence will result in the loss of the lessons and the
fees paid.
- Fitness to drive. If the ADI believes that the learner is temporarily unfit to drive will refuse to
conduct the lesson (temporarily illness, injuries, tiredness, alcohol consumption or under drugs
influence). If the unfitness is due to alcohol or drug use the pupil will be liable for the full cost of
the lesson as scheduled.
Learners must also take note of any medication they are taking that may affect their ability to drive
safely and advise their instructor accordingly before taking any lesson booked.
- Areas covered. Based in Dublin 15, our instructors will only cover Dublin Northside area
(Mulhuddart Testing Centre, Carlton Hotel Testing Centre, Finglas Testing Centre and
Charlestown Testing Center).
- Training Location All sessions will start and finish at the same location unless alternative
arrangements are made in advance.
The instructor will determine a location for practical lessons which ensures both the pupil’s and
public safety – this means that at the early stages of the lessons the instructor may need to drive
the pupil to and from the lesson location; this journey time forms part of the lesson as paid for.
If the student wishes to avail of the maximum time of training, then the student should meet the
appointed instructor at the test centre.
- Bookings can be made directly on our website, using the email address provided in the ‘’contact’’
section or by contacting directly your ADIs using their mobile numbers. Please note that emails or
phones calls may not be answered during business hours and our ADIs might need to get back to
you at the end of their shift.
- Lesson duration. To ensure continuity of learning our instructors will endeavour to maintain
regular lessons slots each week. All lessons are 2 (two) hourly unless otherwise agreed with your
instructor.
- Punctuality. In their own interests learners are advised to be punctual for their lesson
appointments. All such appointments should be recorded and double checked in advance. The
instructor will generally wait a maximum of 30 minutes before the lesson would be abandoned and
the lesson fee forfeited. A reciprocal waiting time may become necessary if the instructor is
delayed due to unforeseen circumstances. Any lesson time lost as a result of this would be made
up by the instructor either at the end of the normal lesson time if possible or at a later date.
- Payment must be made at the time of booking in order to secure the ADI and vehicle for the
duration of the agreed lesson. All prepaid lessons are non-transferable and must be completed
within 6 months from the start of 1st lesson otherwise will result in loss of the remaining lessons
and any fees paid.
- EDT Log Book Policy: A fee of €5 will be charged for EDT logbooks on any other lesson that
requires the ADI to provide an RSA EDT Log Book.
- Cancellations and postponement. You must give at all times your ADI a minimum of 48h notice
if you wish to cancel or reschedule a driving lesson, pre-test or practice lesson, otherwise you will
be liable to pay the full amount of the agreed fee.
If you fail to attend for a pre-paid lesson and fail to provide the minimum 48h notice to cancel or
reschedule the lesson you will be liable for the agreed fee for that particular session.
Your ADI reserves the right to postpone lessons if she/he feels the weather or road conditions are
unsuitable or dangerous. The ADI cannot be held responsible for any costs incurred as a result of
