No. That's not an issue. I was an instructor 17 years.

For post-test motorcycle instruction on-road and for track motorcycle instruction, no need for any accreditation (or any qualifications of any sort).

But for cars, and taking payment, he'll need to be an ADI.

So here’s the interesting part.

There is no mention of the instruction being only for a provisional license holder holder , and there is no mention of it needing to be on-road.

Here’s an email from the (then) DSA in 2012 setting out their position:

“Carole Hodgson of Corporate Correspondence,

Thank you for your email of 19 March about off road driving tuition.

There has been no change to the legislation. The Road Traffic Act 1988 (Section 123) – renders it a criminal offence to provide driving instruction for money or monies worth unless the driving instructor is registered or licensed to give instruction in accordance with Section 123(1).

Section 123 applies to all paid tuition, regardless of whether the person receiving instruction possesses a full licence or not. Section 123 applies to instruction on public and private roads and also to off road tuition.“

Because Yorick 🙄 - I'm honestly surprised that any of the regulars have bothered offering input on this

I’ve been on that list for a good while now. I truly believe he’s the most hated person across all motorbike related forums, and he has the cheek to wonder why, obviously I don’t want to get a ban or anything like that but he really is such a fuck nugget of massive proportions.
