This Halloween, Lee Jowett, Mick Knowles, Stewart Lochrie and Tom Stenson join me for a frank discussion about driving instruction and what it means to call ourselves a profession.

After sharing their favourite horror films, we tackle:

• The value driving instructors bring to learners and road safety.
• Concerns about scripted Part 3 lessons and PDI training.
• Who should train instructors, and what qualifications they should need.
• Public perceptions, professional standards and taking responsibility for change.
• Developing instructors who are better than us.

Expect humour, disagreement and challenging questions about the future of our profession, alongside a simple takeaway: keep learning and aim to be better tomorrow than you are today.
