						notes:	Progressive driving is a mode of driving that aims to minimise the time it takes to drive legally from one point to another. Progressive driving is a requirement only when the situation warrants it. Drivers can choose to 'go with the flow' when a more relaxed style of driving is appropriate. When this criterion is assessed the driver must be told that the situation warrants progressive driving.
