Testimonial
Steve Hurrell was recommended to me by a colleague who had been impressed by his professional approach to driver training and I immediately found this to be the case. His previous experience as a Driving Examiner meant that he knew exactly the standards that were required and wouldn't allow us to fall below these standards!
I successfully undertook both my Rigid and Arctic courses with him. The courses were hard work because of his high expectations but they were always fun and conducted in a relaxed and patient manner. I have since recommended Hidat Training to many of my friends and colleagues.
