Learn to drive: all over again
Article Abstract:
The Driving Standards Authority (DSA), the unit of the department of transport which regulates driving tests, has devised the Pass Plus scheme, which will be made available through DSA-approved driving instructors. It is aimed as people who have only recently passed their driving test, and is based on a series of six lessons. These cover a range of driving skills, and people who pass the course are awarded a certificate, which is accepted by some insurance companies as a way of reducing premiums. More experienced drivers can have their driving assessed in a number of ways.

Article Abstract:
Kentish English should be acceptable but some of its grammatical forms do not appear in the reference book 'A Comprehensive Grammar of the English Language' by Sir Randolph Quirk. Linguists accept variants in grammar where an order of words is in regular use, but lay people do not agree. Grammars for lay people only cover Standard dialect. Prejudice causes lack of knowledge about language. Language prejudice should not be tolerated. Teachers can base their English teaching on regional dialects.
