If you have no experience, why would you jump in quickly?

No but with backlogs there's no point anyway, might as well learn as normal.

They are notorious for producing catastrophic fails, often with multiple dangerous faults as the candidate has not developed a real understanding of how to drive.

Case in point; not mine but a colleague. Candidate today with a intensive course instructor. Approaching green traffic light at box junction, light changes after they pass through it, candidate decides to slam on brakes, stop in middle of yellow box before being rear ended by a lorry. Candidate could not understand that they had already passed through a green light, and that they had to proceed and exit the junction. Kept repeatedly asking colleague if they wanted them to go through a red light.

Another common one, the lads that think they can turn left on a red traffic light because in GTA they can turn right on red and we drive on the other side here so it must be the same.

Really though, good luck.
