Hi all! We have been experiencing an issue on site where threads have been missing the latest postings. The platform host Vanilla are working on this issue. A workaround that has been used by some is to navigate back from 1 to 10+ pages to re-sync the thread and this will then show the latest posts. Thanks, Mike.

Accompanied drivers sitting in front?

FatAssPete · 2009-08-26 17:19:56

Hi guys im new to this forum :) I just want to ask whether it is ok for the driver acompanning you when you are on a learner permit to sit in the back seat of the car or must they sit in the front beside you at all times? And what are the other rules, if any, for learner drivers. Any help would be greatly appreciated.…

I don't know about the legal side of things, but practically, having the accompanied anywhere but in the front passenger seat defeats the purpose. Remember, they are there to help you learn how to drive and correct you on any faults, and guide you if you are unsure. From the backseat, they can barely see what you are doing nevermind correct you.
