The Bank Robbery and Driving Lessons

'M' became quite frustrated when he stalled trying to join a fast-moving roundabout. He mentioned that he would really want to sort that out during his next session, so we discussed his options. This is what we came up with...M had found his own way to move off which did not include the gas pedal in conjunction with the use of clutch. Most of the time it was not a problem of course. M had noticed the issue occasionally during the sessions, though he had not perceived it as an issue until now. As we know; ‘Learning Comes from Within’ so I am conscious of ‘task overload’ and aim for sessions to be challenging but not overwhelming. M is very focused on the actions and behaviours of other road users around him. He has a strong desire to “get it right!” as he calls it, so his focus upon others affects his thoughts and actions at the wheel. That outward focus on other road users results in overload and he is thrown into survival mode, so cannot think straight to drive safely and in control. Hence the plan for the ‘Bank Robbery Starts’! Of course, the discussion took a few minutes; I must say it was hilarious as M dove into the role play idea with his usual gusty enthusiasm! He came up with the idea of the masks and I said I would bring them next time. (a quick trip to eBay and the preparation was done) Having a Kinaesthetic preference to learning, M is always one to have a 'go'! and work out ‘how’ to do it!
So to this weeks session.
The practice area was a very quiet industrial area on a Saturday afternoon. We discussed the risks and who was going to keep us safe while he focused on the task at hand (his Goal). He knew the plan was to move the car from stationary as efficiently as possible whilst (tongue in cheek) being the ‘Get Away Driver’ of a bank heist! “I just want to be able to go fast and not stall or make the car ‘do that thing’” he said.
M had his first attempt at a ‘Bank Robbery Start’:
Robbery number 1: "Oh! That was rubbish - it nearly stalled and it was so slow! We'd have been nicked!"
Robbery Number 2: M said: "Oh That wasn't screechy enough!" Me: - "Oh? Can you explain that a little more please...?" M said: "In the films it is more noisy… " Me "That’s interesting.... what would you say they are they doing then?" M said: "Ohhhhh! They are revving the car so much more than me!!!”
For Robbery number 3: M said: "Sweet!"
The learning had come from within! M found a solution to the problem and because he ‘found it’ the learning will be more permanent.M is constantly developing his Self Reflection techniques during our sessions, helping him to become consciously adept at problem solving.
These skills mean that any ‘near-misses’ that he might have once he passes his test will be processed; and an action plan made to prevent them happening again.
