John Lyon has been teaching safe driving of high-performance road cars for over 45 years, giving one-to-one tuition to many thousands of keen drivers through the High Performance Course, now his own business but once part of the British School of Motoring. For a period in the 1960s he became the only civilian instructor ever to work for the Metropolitan Police Driving School, which at the time set the highest driving standards in the world.
