Just been given the books etc. That I need to study for the advance driving course 
All I need to do is drive the car whilst making progress, commenting on what I see, what I cant see, and what I can resonable expect to happen. Whist driving following the system of car control.
And theres a startup, resume and stopping procedure that I ned to learn verbatam before I start the course in a fortnight. 
Should be fun though

let me guess they were all in high vis jackets I bet that wasn't police bike training and just a CBT center!
CBT = Compulsary Basic Training for bikes its the only thing you need to get on the road with L plates, you all wear high vis jackets and go round cones slowly - it's highly likely people drop their bikes on the floor 
I somehow think police bike training is a little more advanced than this, as it's a given you can ride a bike and have a license

Nope this is just the basic test to allow me to drive with blue lights on.
Can only use lights to stop other vehicle at the moment, not to get to calls

Don't think they do CBT's on huge Honda's with blue lights Dick Head Its called Manoeuvrability Training because police bikes weigh alot and they have to be able to control them at slow speeds.
