Press Release Summary: 23 June 2008 - Carrentals.co.uk believes that a good driver is as good as his driving teacher. According to the company's Managing Director, Gareth Robinson, a reliable driving instructor who passes on the right kind of knowledge to his students will surely make a big difference in the students' abilities to drive. He said that while most people believe that they cannot drive well when they have their driving tests, the proper instructions that are given to them by their instructors will make them better drivers in the future.
In line with this, Carrentals.co.uk did a survey with almost 1,000 of its clients, and asked them who they would prefer to have on the driving instructor's seat. The survey was meant to raise awareness about the significance of proper driving instructions in the maintenance of road safety. Robinson said that although this study was done in a manner that was light-hearted, it was meant to help people realize the importance of a good driving instructor.
Press Release Body: Topping the survey's results is Channel 5 newsreader Natasha Kaplinsky, who is the favourite among male drivers, and actor George Clooney who got the number one spot for preferred male driving instructor from female voters. Kylie Minogue took the number two spot, while Jo Brand, Sharon Osborne, Barbara Windsor and Jordan were 3rd to 6th respectively. While Minogue was the choice of male drivers aged between 25 to 45 years old, Osborne was the favorite among those who are aged 17-24.
Meanwhile, Clooney, who was the top choice among women aged 55 years old and under, was followed by Richard Branson, Trevor Macdonald, Shane Richie, Peter Kay and Simon Cowell, in the order of their rankings. Macdonald was the most preferred instructor among women who belong to the 55 and above age group.
