Some of the students and tutors at Lugtonridge
Allan Ross, owner and Managing Director of
Stewarton finance company, First Independent
Finance passed his advanced driving test last year
and was quickly followed by his son, Ross. Both
achieved a ‘First’ which is the highest possible
pass standard. Last month, Yvonne, Allan’s wife
also passed her advanced test. With all three, now
members of the IAM, daughter Verity, soon to be
seventeen has a challenge ahead of her!
The family were prepared by John Wright and Ben
Devlin, both tutoring within the advanced driving
classes based at Lugtonridge, Burnhouse.
Ben, one of Allan’s employees, has also successfully
prepared two of First Independent’s other employees,
Brian Kilpatrick and Brian Gorman for their
advanced tests. Having experienced all the benefits
first hand, it is Allan’s intention to put as many of his
employees as possible through the advanced test.
On passing his test and completing some further
training, Allan then went on to tutor twenty year old
Stewartonian Ewan Hinds, who passed his advanced
test last month. John Wright has also had another
success with Stewartonian, Craig Cooper.
Allan says, “I’ve always felt that the most important
job that an employee has when driving a car is to
get home at night. In addition, as a family man, I
found myself getting concerned whenever I heard of
yet another preventable accident. So I decided to do
something about it.
The Lugtonridge centre made that possible,
completely free of charge and an added advantage is
that our fuel and repair bills have also fallen.”
