Meet The Team
Chris started Carcaptain in 2006 (13 years ago in 2019). At the time the industry standard for getting your driving licence was 1.5 to 2 years. There had to be a better and more effective way to get your driving licence. The objective was always to drastically shorten the period it takes the average student to get their driving licence. Chris has a degree in engineering and a track record of design and manufacture dating back many years. Chris read Engineering, then a degree in Computer Science and an MBA, as a retirement job he studied and became a driving instructor.
What was supposed to be a hobby has turned into a business which leads the driving industry market in many ways. Carcaptain recently launched and started promoting Guaranteed Pass Intensive Driving Courses, after having been the leader in its field for Fast Track Intensive driving courses. Carcaptain specialises in designing bespoke driving courses which are tailored to the individual’s needs and requirements. Our objective is “14 days from first contact to licence” including all tests and tuition.
