Meet The Founder

James Ford Hathaway 2Fathers Driver Training

James Ford-Hathaway

Managing Director

After 18 years in the transport industry, driving buses and car transporters, as well as management roles in training and operations, James Ford-Hathaway became fed up with witnessing horrific unnecessary road incidents and the obvious lack of training within the industry, so he founded 2Fathers Driver Training Limited in 2021.

James prides himself on teaching safe and smooth driving standards and firmly believes in finding solutions to a persons’ training needs. Well known for his good humoured and inclusive personality, he is prepared to go that extra mile to help someone achieve their goal.
