The mighty Tony Mills became a driving instructor in May 2018.
Previously signed with RED driving school and with his contract coming up for renegotiation, driveJohnson’s submitted a formal offer for the high-profile instructor.
Whilst Tony was content with RED, he had heard many good things about driveJohnson’s from its instructors. After a long conversation with Anthony Johnson, Director of driveJohnson’s, they were able to get the deal over the line and make a great free transfer!
Anthony Johnson said, “After hearing about Tony’s availability and then getting to speak to him, it was a ‘yes’ from me. Tony has a fantastic character and is a quality instructor. Adding Tony to our fantastic team of instructors just makes the company stronger. We can’t wait to have him join our driving instructor franchise.”
