Stuart Craigen, Owner and Instructor at Aberdrive.

MEET YOUR INSTRUCTOR

Hi, I’m Stuart! A friendly and skilled driving instructor who has been voted as top 100 driving instructors in the UK and top 5 in Scotland for the past five years.

When I was 18 I was unfortunate enough to be a passenger in a serious road accident. In 2017 I started teaching drivers not just how to pass their test but how to drive safely thereafter.

The national pass rate is currently around 47%, with my own sat at around 90% - plus numerous testimonials from past (and passed) pupils.
