In short
Approved Driving Instructors (ADIs) can apply to verify their profile on Driving Routes, contribute routes for their local test centres, and get credit on every route they submit. Verification takes about 48 hours. Free to join.

- Credit on every route you contribute
- Direct messages from learners (optional)
- Free Driving Routes Pro for the centres you cover
- Early access to upcoming instructor features
What we ask
- Verifiable ADI number on the DVSA register
- Honest route notes — what works, what catches learners out
- Updates when local roadworks invalidate a route
- A bio and headshot for your profile page
How verification works
Email instructors@drivingroutes.co with your full name, ADI number, and the centres you cover. We check the DVSA register, confirm the centres, and verify your profile — usually within 48 hours.
Instructor frequently asked questions
Who can apply?
Any approved driving instructor (ADI) in good standing on the DVSA register. PDIs (trainees) can apply once their qualification is complete.
Do I get paid for contributing routes?
Today, no — contribution is voluntary and gets you a verified profile page plus credit on every route you submit. We are planning a paid programme for high-quality contributors; tell us if you'd be interested.
How long does verification take?
Usually within 48 hours. We verify your ADI number against the DVSA register and confirm the test centres you cover.
What does a verified profile look like?
A public page with your name, ADI number, the centres you cover, your bio, and a list of the routes you contributed. Routes also credit the verifying instructor.
Can my driving school have a profile?
Not yet — verified profiles are for individual ADIs. Driving-school listings are on the roadmap.
