Driving instructor said 'Who’s your daddy' 15 times to woman as complaints to RSA rise 

Last August, a complainant claimed an ADI had told her to imagine that she had two children in the back seat and, if she did not drive carefully, she would cause an accident and kill them.

A driving instructor told a 28-year-old woman who was getting lessons in his car that she was “drop-dead gorgeous”, asked if she was single, and said “Who’s your daddy” 15 times, according to a formal complaint received by the Road Safety Authority (RSA).

Another approved driving instructor (ADI) who was in his 60s told a 22-year-old student that “girls on their period never do well in their driving test” because it affects their coordination and they “get flustered”.
