Article 3 - Driving instructors insulted

How dare the country run driving instructors down!

Yes there are corrupt ones, drunks, drug addicts, those who steal the applicant’s money and run off! SAIDI strongly condemns these practices and has always opposed those guilty of every form of corruption and has attempted and is attempting right now to set high standards in the driving school industry! Our members comply with our code of conduct (Refer to SAIDI code of conduct).

Even so, I challenge the South African Government to name one driving instructor who has been thoroughly trained at Government expense in the last 30 years!

Those of us who have achieved a high standard have done so at our own expense and through years of dedicated application to the private training we have paid for, since we found the Government unwilling to sponsor training for people with private businesses. We wanted to attend traffic training colleges with the examining officers but were refused permission. Nor would they let us pay for that training. I wonder if the South African public is aware of this detail? Considering the countries notorious death statistics it is time this was changed as a  matter of urgency.

SAIDI.CO.ZA has prepared comprehensive training programmes for any driving instructor based directly on the Road Traffic Legislation. We are more than willing to offer them for accreditation and national training of not only driving instructors, but taxi drivers too!

The Government should make use of this material especially in view of the staff shortages in National and Provincial Departments. The Government is mistaken not to use training material that was designed specifically for this purpose.

The training material is constantly updated to include the latest laws!
