3 Driving Lessons: Booking, Cancellation & Delays
3.1 A lesson will only be made available to You if You have a pre-booked appointment for it. You should book a lesson with Me in person, or by phone, or by email, or via social media. It shall be Your and My responsibility to agree all matters relating to each lesson including, but not limited to, date, time, location and duration;
3.2 Your request to book a lesson will be an offer, but whether I accept any request will be for Me to decide in My discretion. Only if and when I tell You that I accept Your request for any particular lesson(s) will there be a binding contract between You and Me for that/those lesson(s);
3.3 If You wish to make a booking for two or more lessons by means of a single booking, and in My discretion I accept that booking, My contract with You will be for all of the lessons concerned;
3.4 I will not reserve any lesson slots or guarantee regularity of lessons over any period of time or on any particular date and/or time except that I will reserve a particular lesson slot for You if and when I accept a booking for it from You. Nevertheless, I shall use reasonable endeavours to make available regular lesson slots for You;
3.5 If You know You are going to be late for a lesson, You should contact Me to tell Me. If You arrive (or are not ready) later than 10 minutes after the scheduled start time for Your booked lesson, I will try to provide that lesson but if I decide that I cannot do so, the lesson will be treated as cancelled without notice by You and, if I then decide to make a charge for that lesson cancelled without notice, sub-Clause 3.7 below will apply;
3.6 You may cancel a lesson without charge if You give Me at least 48 hours' prior notice of the cancellation and if You do so I will refund to You any sum You paid Me in advance;
3.7 If You do not give Me at least 48 hours prior notice of cancellation of a lesson, I will be entitled to charge You for the full price of the lesson, this will be taken from any pre-paid block bookings or need to be paid before any more lessons take place;
3.8 If, due to exceptional circumstances including, but not limited to, illness, accidents and bereavement, You cancel a lesson without giving Me at least 48 hours prior notice, I will consider the circumstances and in My discretion decide whether to waive any charge for late cancellation that I am entitled to make under sub-Clauses 3.5 and 3.7;
3.9 If I wish to cancel a lesson, I may do so without incurring any liability to You (and You will not have to pay for that lesson), every endeavour will be made to reschedule at the earliest appropriate time suitable to You and I;
3.10 Notwithstanding sub-Clause 3.9, I may, without incurring any liability to You, cancel a booked lesson at any time before the start time of that lesson, where either:
3.10.1 due to my illness, unavailability of a suitable vehicle, or other reason beyond My reasonable control, I am not available or able to provide the lesson fully or properly; or
3.10.2 I have reason to believe that You are not fit to drive at the time of the lesson due to any factors including, but not limited to, alcohol, drugs (whether prescribed or otherwise), illness or other medical condition. If I cancel the lesson for such reason, I shall be entitled, at My discretion, either to charge You for that lesson or not to do so but in deciding whether to charge You I shall act reasonably;
3.11 I will use all reasonable endeavours to start a lesson at the time which You have booked but the start may be delayed by overrun of a previous lesson or by other circumstances. If a delay to the start is at least 10 minutes, or if at any time before or after You or I arrive for a lesson I notify You that there will be a delay of at least that time, You may cancel and will not have to pay for that lesson and I will refund to You in full any advance payment that You have made to Me for that lesson. If, however, in those circumstances You do not cancel the lesson, I shall add on to the lesson the time by which the start is delayed at no charge to You or, if that does not suit You, I shall add it on to a subsequent lesson, or if You do not book a further lesson I will refund a part of the fee for that lesson in proportion to the part of the lesson not added on; and
3.12 Where the contract I make with You is not made on My premises, the Regulations give You the rights set out in this sub-Clause 3.12, and they will be in addition to the rights given to You by the above provisions of this Clause 3. You may for any reason cancel any lesson(s) during the 14 day period after I accept the booking for it/them, but if the booking includes any lesson(s) on a date which is before the end of that period and if You have expressly requested Me to provide any such lesson(s) and I do so, You may not cancel that or those requested lesson(s) and You must pay for them in accordance with Clause 5, and You may then only cancel any other lesson(s) covered by that booking. If You request that any lesson be cancelled, You must confirm this in any way convenient to You. If You cancel any lesson(s) as allowed by this Sub-clause 3.12, and You have already made any payment(s) to Me for the lesson(s), I will refund the payment(s) to You within 14 days of receiving Your cancellation less the amount due for the lesson(s) that You have received.
4 Lessons: Location & Length
4.1 I will agree the location for each lesson with You at the time of booking. I may choose a location which requires additional travel in the interests of road safety. In such cases, if You wish to be picked up and taken to that location by Me, travel time will form part of the lesson time;
